MoonshotAI/kimi-cli (10,869 stars, +1,537 this week) now states it "is evolving into Kimi Code CLI," while successor MoonshotAI/kimi-code (5,148 stars, +1,534 this week, 754 forks, 321 PRs) trends in parallel (GitHub). Both speak ACP and MCP; kimi-code adds conversational MCP server configuration and authentication and drives ACP-compatible editors including Zed and JetBrains. Neither publishes benchmark numbers or names specific Kimi model versions. Watch which repo actually receives commits, because a rename with both repos trending is a migration risk if you've pinned the old package.
