Kimi Code 0.24.0

Minor Changes

• #1441 ceb158d Thanks @sailist! - Add v2 session export support for packaging diagnostic zip archives.
• #1591 83e1753 Thanks @liruifengv! - Move foreground Bash commands that hit their timeout to the background instead of killing them, so long-running commands survive the timeout and report back on completion. Set bash_auto_background_on_timeout = false under [background] in config.toml to restore the kill-on-timeout behavior.
• #1617 4ec2e7f Thanks @sailist! - Run the local server (kimi server run / kimi web) on the agent-core-v2 engine by default - the KIMI_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_FLAG opt-in is no longer needed, and the legacy v1 server package has been removed.
• #1441 ceb158d Thanks @sailist! - Port progressive tool disclosure to the new agent engine: MCP tool schemas stay out of the top-level tool list, and the model loads them by name on demand through the announcements plus the select_tools tool, keeping the prompt cache stable. Off by default; set KIMI_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_TOOL_SELECT=1 to enable.
• #1646 5eb6217 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Add session diagnostic export to download a session and bounded metadata-only troubleshooting logs as a ZIP. Run /export or pick Export session from a session's more menu. Web downloads are limited to 64 MiB.

Patch Changes

#1638 7c889f3 Thanks @RealKai42! - In auto permission mode, plan exits are now marked as auto-approved (not user-reviewed) in both the tool result and the transcript, so the agent no longer treats automatic plan approval as a user signal to start executing.

#1598 4feca6b Thanks @kermanx! - web: Recover transient subagent rate limits without surfacing them as session errors.

#1635 e49b3b8 Thanks @sailist! - Request task-owned work to stop on session close, honoring background.keep_alive_on_exit for independent processes and background.kill_grace_period_ms before attempting force-stop.

#1629 0527ca2 Thanks @sailist! - Fix session fork losing everything except the conversation log: forked sessions now carry over media attachments, plan files, background task output, and cron tasks, and a failed fork no longer leaves a broken half-copy behind.

#1627 28e9dd4 Thanks @chengluyu! - web: Continue blocked goals after the user resumes them from the goal controls.

#1631 2d874fb Thanks @sailist! - Fix a race where a heartbeat write in flight during server shutdown could recreate the instance file right after it was removed.

#1663 1294a0e Thanks @7Sageer! - Fix OAuth login hanging after browser authorization when the provider configuration changes during sign-in.

#1657 32a89c3 Thanks @RealKai42! - Prevent oversized image reads from poisoning sessions and recover existing request-too-large failures by removing unsafe media from provider requests.

#1635 e49b3b8 Thanks @sailist! - Store background task records per agent again, so tasks written by older versions are found on resume and one agent's restore no longer marks another agent's tasks as lost.

#1632 a4aae87 Thanks @sailist! - Fix providers without a configured base_url being rejected: anthropic/openai and other protocol providers now fall back to their official default endpoints again, as before.

#1588 2061590 Thanks @liruifengv! - Fix pasted media being dropped from /skill and plugin command arguments.

#1588 2061590 Thanks @liruifengv! - Fix pasted images being dropped when steering with Ctrl-S.

#1629 0527ca2 Thanks @sailist! - Fix the v2 engine never activating tool-call deduplication: identical tool calls issued in the same step no longer execute multiple times, and repeated identical calls across steps receive escalating reminders again.

#1441 ceb158d Thanks @sailist! - Fix a race in the experimental v2 config service that could drop a just-written setting from the config response.

#1614 3c0e368 Thanks @chengluyu! - Fix a server crash when the first goal-mode prompt is submitted while the v2 agent is still starting.

#1631 2d874fb Thanks @sailist! - Surface the provider's actual rejection message instead of a misleading re-login prompt when an OAuth-managed model keeps returning 401 after a token refresh.

#1631 2d874fb Thanks @sailist! - Rewrite repeated-tool-call reminders to redirect the agent toward a different action instead of prohibiting the call, and treat a dismissed question prompt as no answer rather than the recommended option.

#1636 8027fe2 Thanks @sailist! - Make file tools able to reach skill directories outside the working directory in the v2 engine (experimental), and honor --skillsDir in v2 print mode and the server's skillDirs option.

#1630 0303b82 Thanks @sailist! - Fix ReadMediaFile results losing their image rendering after a session reload or resume on the v2 server backend.

#1441 ceb158d Thanks @sailist! - Fix a storage race in the experimental v2 engine that could fail value reads when writes overlap with compaction.

#1601 dc309a7 Thanks @kermanx! - web: Fix the context usage indicator dropping to 0 when a session is reopened or the session list reloads (e.g. after a sidebar search) - the cached live usage is now kept instead of the session record's all-zero placeholder.

#1620 e91a616 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Fix duplicate user message bubbles after a session snapshot resync.

#1672 88629ba Thanks @yicun! - web: Fix uploaded and persisted images failing to display on non-loopback server connections.

#1609 e223549 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Fix a running multi-step turn rendering a duplicated wall of text after the page reconnects or refreshes mid-turn.

#1611 32cbd0c Thanks @chengluyu! - web: Fix the workspace picker menu sizing too narrowly for its content.

#1635 e49b3b8 Thanks @sailist! - Fix possible record loss when resuming sessions whose wire log needs migration, and reject session logs missing the version envelope instead of silently misreading them.

#1441 ceb158d Thanks @sailist! - Fix MCP tools being unavailable on the first turn after session startup.

#1580 83370f1 Thanks @wszqkzqk! - Fix bash auto-detection on Windows failing when git comes from a native MSYS2 toolchain (ucrt64/clang64/clangarm64).

#1676 d1820ff Thanks @RealKai42! - Preserve empty model reasoning blocks across providers so multi-step tool calls can continue.

#1669 490303d Thanks @chengluyu! - web: Refine goal mode controls with animated strip interactions, budget-aware progress, and design-system cancellation confirmation.

#1597 d601847 Thanks @7Sageer! - Send the kimi-code-cli User-Agent on provider registry (api.json) and model catalog fetches, so registries can identify the client version.

#1441 ceb158d Thanks @sailist! - Fix approval and question prompts not appearing in real time for web clients connected to the v2 server; they previously only showed up after a page refresh.

#1441 ceb158d Thanks @sailist! - Log a warning when a skill fails to parse instead of silently dropping it, and fix the skill catalog so scanned skill roots and policy-skipped skills are actually reported.
