What the code does

Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Runs an external command src/utils/commandExecutor.ts:104
    const childProcess = spawn(command, args, {

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add kimi-mcp-server -- npx -y @trishchuk/kimi-mcp-server
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kimi-mcp-server": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@trishchuk/kimi-mcp-server"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: KIMI_MCP_CWD (Override working directory for all tool calls), KIMI_SESSION_TTL_MS (Session time-to-live in milliseconds (default: 86400000 = 24h)), KIMI_MAX_SESSIONS (Maximum concurrent sessions (default: 50)), MOONSHOT_API_KEY (Forwarded to Kimi CLI for unattended auth. Leave unset to use OAuth (run `kimi /login` once).). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Kimi MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Kimi MCP Server?
Kimi MCP Server runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @trishchuk/kimi-mcp-server was installed 487 times last week.
How do I connect Kimi MCP Server?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @trishchuk/kimi-mcp-server straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Kimi MCP Server?
The npm package @trishchuk/kimi-mcp-server was installed 487 times in the last week. Week over week that is +96%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Kimi MCP Server open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 1 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
