MCP is a Kimi Code CLI feature. The Kimi chatbot at kimi.com has no connector surface, so this page is the way to use Hive with Kimi.

Add the server

kimi mcp auth opens a browser. Approve the connection there and Kimi stores the credential outside your config file, so no secret goes on disk.

Headless use

Where no browser is available, pass a key in the header instead:
See authentication for where to get a key.

Verify

hive should appear as connected. Then start a session and ask for a live price. Kimi Code CLI keeps its servers in ~/.kimi-code/mcp.json under mcpServers, or in .kimi-code/mcp.json in the working directory for a project-scoped server.
