Complete guide to using Kimi K3 API: Open Frontier Intelligence for Coding and Knowledge Work

Kimi K3 API: Open Frontier Intelligence for Coding and Knowledge Work

Kimi K3 is Moonshot AI's 2.8-trillion-parameter flagship model, built for long-horizon coding, deep reasoning, and end-to-end knowledge work. Its native multimodal understanding and 1M-token context let agents work across large codebases, documents, images, video, and complex tool-driven tasks.

Kimi K3 is available on PoYo through the kimi-k3 model ID and the OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions API.

Kimi K3 Model Features

Kimi K3 combines extreme model scale, native multimodal understanding, long context, and agentic execution for demanding coding and knowledge workflows.

01

Long-Horizon Coding Across Large Repositories

Kimi K3 is designed to sustain extended engineering sessions with limited supervision. It can navigate large codebases, coordinate terminal tools, and use visual feedback to refine software.

  • Work across million-token project context
  • Coordinate code, terminal, and visual feedback
  • Support frontend, game, CAD, and research workflows

02

Native Multimodal Reasoning

Text, screenshots, images, and video can be understood within one model, enabling vision-in-the-loop agents that inspect results and improve their next action.

  • Understand text, images, and video
  • Use screenshots for visual iteration
  • Reason about interfaces, scenes, diagrams, and media

03

1M Context for Agentic Knowledge Work

A one-million-token context window gives Kimi K3 room for large evidence sets, long interaction histories, source code, and multi-stage deliverables without prematurely discarding context.

  • Analyze large document and code collections
  • Maintain context across long-running tasks
  • Create reports, dashboards, slides, and research artifacts

04

Tool Calling and Reliable Structured Output

Kimi K3 supports custom tools, required tool choice, dynamic tool loading, streaming, and strict JSON Schema responses for application workflows.

  • Call custom functions and dynamically load tools
  • Return strict schema-constrained JSON
  • Tune reasoning effort for complex tasks
