kimi-skills

Local mirror of the Kimi skills catalog, kept for offline use and version control. The previous Chinese README is archived as README.zh-CN.md.

Each skill is its own directory under skills/, with a SKILL.md entry file and optional references, scripts, and templates. The tree also includes the 9 tool skills shipped with MoonshotAI/kimi-cli. The public catalog changes over time; this repo currently has 134 skill directories (125 from Kimi, including a few no longer listed on the site, plus those 9 kimi-cli skills).

Categories and the full list: skills/README.md.

Install

Use the vercel-labs/skills CLI to install these skills into an AI coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and 45+ others):

# Install into the current project (recommended)
npx skills add haomingz/kimi-skills

# Install globally, for every project
npx skills add -g haomingz/kimi-skills

# Install a subset
npx skills add haomingz/kimi-skills -s equity-researcher,chart-gen

# List installed skills
npx skills list

# Upgrade to the latest version
npx skills update

On the first npx skills add, pick the agent you use (for example claude-code), or pass -a claude-code.

Development

The Python scripts use the standard library only. uv is the recommended way to run them:

# First time: create .venv and pin the Python version
uv sync

uv run python scripts/kimi-audit.py
uv run python scripts/kimi-extract.py

Without uv, python scripts/kimi-audit.py works on Python ≥ 3.9.

Updating skills

Option 1 (recommended): let the agent sync

Tell the agent:

Use the kimi-sync skill to sync the latest skills from kimi.com into this repo

The agent picks a browser in this order:

1. The agent’s built-in browser (for example Cursor’s browser tools).
2. Playwright MCP, if there is no built-in browser. Extension mode drives your already logged-in Chrome; isolated mode needs a login inside that browser.
3. Any other browser MCP that can open a page and run JavaScript in it.
