v1.29.0

  • Core: Support hierarchical AGENTS.md loading — the CLI now discovers and merges AGENTS.md files from the git project root down to the working directory, including .kimi/AGENTS.md at each level; deeper files take priority under a 32 KiB budget cap, ensuring the most specific instructions are never truncated
  • Core: Fix empty sessions lingering on disk after exit — sessions created but never used are now cleaned up on all exit paths (failure exit, session switch, unexpected errors), not just on successful exit
  • Shell: Add KIMI_CLI_PASTE_CHAR_THRESHOLD and KIMI_CLI_PASTE_LINE_THRESHOLD environment variables to control when pasted text is folded into a placeholder — lowering these thresholds works around CJK input method breakage after multiline paste on some terminals (e.g., XShell over SSH)
  • Shell: Fix diff panel rendering corruption on terminals without truecolor support (e.g. Xshell) — render_to_ansi no longer hardcodes 24-bit color; Rich now auto-detects terminal capability via COLORTERM/TERM environment variables
  • Web: Fix white screen after CLI upgrade caused by browser caching stale index.html — the server now returns Cache-Control: no-cache for HTML and immutable for hashed assets, preventing 404s on renamed chunks
  • Core: Fix file write converting LF to CRLF on Windows — writetext now opens files with newline="" to prevent Python's universal newline translation from silently converting \n to \r\n
  • Core: Support socks:// proxy scheme — proxy tools like V2RayN set ALL_PROXY=socks://... which httpx/aiohttp don't recognise; the CLI now normalises socks:// to socks5:// at startup so all HTTP clients and subprocesses work correctly behind a SOCKS proxy
  • Shell: Add /title (alias /rename) command to manually set session titles — titles are now stored in state.json alongside other session state; legacy metadata.json is automatically migrated on first load
  • Shell: Fix garbled pager output when MANPAGER is set (e.g. bat) — the console pager now ignores MANPAGER and delegates to pydoc.pager(), preserving PAGER and all platform-specific fallbacks
  • Explore: Enhance explore agent with specialist role, thoroughness levels, and automatic environment context — explore agents now gather repository environment information at launch to improve investigation quality; the main agent is guided to prefer explore for codebase research and plan mode encourages explore-first investigation
  • Shell: Fix tool call display showing raw OSC 8 escape bytes (e.g. 8;id=391551;https://…) instead of clean text — hyperlink sequences are now wrapped as zero-width escapes for prompt_toolkit compatibility, preserving clickable links in supported terminals
  • Core: Add OS and shell information to the system prompt — the model now knows which platform it is running on and receives a Windows-specific instruction to prefer built-in tools over Shell commands, preventing Linux command errors in PowerShell
  • Shell: Fix command parameter description saying "bash command" regardless of platform — the description is now platform-neutral
  • Web: Fix auto-title overwriting manual session rename — when a user renames a session through the web UI, the new title is now preserved and no longer replaced by the auto-generated title
