Kimi Code Keyboard shortcuts

Get the poster

Kimi Code is Moonshot AI's terminal agent. Its shortcuts are grouped by context — input, mode switching, what works while a response is streaming, and the approval panel — so the same key can mean different things depending on what the CLI is doing. Ctrl-S steering and Shift-Tab plan mode are the two that change how a session feels.
