Connect Kimi CLI to AgentRQ

Connect Kimi CLI to AgentRQ over the Agent Client Protocol (ACP) for human-in-the-loop task management.

Kimi CLI is Moonshot AI's terminal coding agent. It supports the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), so it can run behind AgentRQ's gateway with no custom integration code.

Does Kimi CLI Support ACP?

Yes. Running kimi acp starts Kimi CLI as an ACP agent server for integration with any ACP client, including editors like Zed and JetBrains IDEs — and AgentRQ's gateway.

What Connecting via ACP Gets You

Once Kimi CLI is bridged through AgentRQ's ACP Gateway, every task it works on shows up on your AgentRQ task board in real time. You can approve risky commands, reply with extra context, or reassign work — from the dashboard or Slack — without touching the terminal Kimi CLI is running in.

Connect Kimi CLI

Wrap Kimi CLI's ACP mode with AgentRQ's gateway:

bash 
npx @agentrq/acp-gateway@latest -- kimi acp

Then point it at your workspace with a .mcp.json in your project root:

json 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agentrq": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://WORKSPACE_ID.mcp.agentrq.com/mcp?token=TOKEN"
    }
  }
}

See the ACP Gateway guide for the full setup walkthrough, including where to find your Workspace ID and token.

FAQ

Does Kimi CLI work with AgentRQ?

Yes — Kimi CLI speaks the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), so it connects to AgentRQ through the open-source ACP Gateway with no custom integration code.

How do I connect Kimi CLI to AgentRQ?

Run npx @agentrq/acp-gateway@latest -- kimi acp from your project root, with a .mcp.json pointing at your AgentRQ workspace.

What is the Agent Client Protocol (ACP)?

ACP is an open, editor-agnostic protocol that lets any coding agent talk to any client over a standard JSON-RPC interface. AgentRQ's gateway implements the client side of ACP, so any ACP-compatible agent — including Kimi CLI — can use AgentRQ as its human-in-the-loop task manager.
