# OpenClaw x Kimi

kimi-k3 is Kimi's current flagship and uses always-on reasoning. kimi-k2.5 and kimi-k2.6 remain available; their older K2 architecture has 1T parameters and 256K context, and the 58.6% SWE-bench Pro result belongs to kimi-k2.6. Kimi is available through OpenAI Chat Completions, OpenAI Responses, Anthropic Messages, and Gemini native APIs. RunAPI's initial kimi-k3 release supports basic text requests with synchronous and SSE streaming responses.

## Public versions and endpoints

| Model ID | Version | Endpoints | Starting price |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `kimi-k2.5` | 1T / 32B active; 256K context; native multimodal input | /v1/chat/completions | $0.0006 |
| `kimi-k2.6` | 1T / 32B active; 256K context; 58.6% SWE-bench Pro; 300-agent swarm | /v1/chat/completions | $0.0026 |
| `kimi-k2.7-code` | Dedicated coding model; always-on thinking; 256K context | /v1/chat/completions | $0.0006 |
| `kimi-k3` | Current Kimi flagship with always-on reasoning | /v1/chat/completions | $0.0018 |

## Configuration

Select `<model-id>` before using a command. This page does not select a default model.
Use `runapi/<model-id>` with OpenClaw, or configure the RunAPI custom endpoint and select `<model-id>` with Hermes Agent.

`/v1/chat/completions`

```
{
  models: {
    mode: "merge",
    providers: {
      runapi: {
        baseUrl: "https://runapi.ai/v1",
        apiKey: "${RUNAPI_API_KEY}",
        api: "openai-completions",
        models: [{ id: "<model-id>", name: "RunAPI <model-id>" }],
      },
    },
  },
}
```

## Verify

```
openclaw models status
openclaw models set runapi/<model-id>
```


## How it works

1. **Choose a model ID.** Select a public catalog model ID and review its endpoint and current starting price.
2. **Configure RunAPI.** Add the provider configuration for this agent.
3. **Verify the result.** Run the agent status and model-selection commands shown below.

## FAQ

### Which model ID should I use?

Choose a public model ID from the version table. Each ID exposes the endpoints shown for that version.

### Does this guide configure a chat model?

Yes. This Model Line supports a client-facing LLM protocol.
