A new method allows users to integrate Moonshot AI's Kimi k3 model with the Claude Code CLI, bypassing complex setup processes. The tool, named Zap, simplifies the connection by enabling users to point Claude Code to any service that supports the Anthropic wire format. This approach allows users to leverage Kimi k3's capabilities, including its 2.8T parameters and 1M context window, at a lower cost than Anthropic's flagship models, while also supporting OpenAI's Codex CLI.
