Moonshot AI
Configure Moonshot K2 vs Kimi Coding (separate providers + keys)
Moonshot AI (Kimi)
Moonshot provides the Kimi API with OpenAI-compatible endpoints. Configure the
provider and set the default model to moonshot/kimi-k2.5, or use
Kimi Coding with kimi-coding/k2p5.
Current Kimi K2 model IDs:
kimi-k2.5kimi-k2-0905-previewkimi-k2-turbo-previewkimi-k2-thinkingkimi-k2-thinking-turbo
openclaw onboard --auth-choice moonshot-api-key
Kimi Coding:
openclaw onboard --auth-choice kimi-code-api-key
Note: Moonshot and Kimi Coding are separate providers. Keys are not interchangeable, endpoints differ, and model refs differ (Moonshot uses moonshot/..., Kimi Coding uses kimi-coding/...).

Notes
- Moonshot model refs use
moonshot/<modelId>. Kimi Coding model refs usekimi-coding/<modelId>. - Override pricing and context metadata in
models.providersif needed. - If Moonshot publishes different context limits for a model, adjust
contextWindowaccordingly. - Use
https://api.moonshot.ai/v1for the international endpoint, andhttps://api.moonshot.cn/v1for the China endpoint.
