Kimi API Now Works with OpenAI and Anthropic Formats for Easy Codex and Claude Code Integration

Moonshot AI announced that Kimi API now supports OpenAI's Responses API and Anthropic's Messages API formats. Developers can connect Codex or Claude Code directly without format conversion or local proxies. This meets the demand for multi-platform compatibility.

The new endpoints support models like kimi-k3 and kimi-k2.7-code-highspeed, handling text and image inputs but not video. Codex desktop may show 'Custom' as the model, but it actually uses Kimi K3. Users can follow official docs for quick setup, and local agents like Kimi Code can assist.

This update simplifies development workflows and boosts Kimi's usability in popular AI coding tools, positively impacting the developer community.
