# Kimi Code CLI

> Add Hive to Kimi Code CLI over remote MCP, with browser authorization.

<Note>
  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.
</Note>

## Add the server

```bash theme={null}
kimi mcp add --transport http --auth oauth hive https://mcp.hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp
kimi mcp auth hive
```

`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:

```bash theme={null}
kimi mcp add --transport http hive https://mcp.hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_HIVE_API_KEY"
```

See [authentication](/authentication) for where to get a key.

## Verify

```bash theme={null}
kimi mcp list
```

`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.
