What is kimi:challenge?

A read-only command that asks Kimi to challenge a proposed design or code change. It reviews the branch differences and reports assumptions, trade-offs, hidden problems, and possible alternatives.

Use it to pressure-test a feature or branch, optionally focus the review on a specific concern, and receive findings grouped by severity.

It gives you an adversarial second review before shipping, which can reveal issues such as race conditions or weak caching decisions.

kimi:challenge — Command for Claude Code by luanmorenommaciel

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/luanmorenommaciel/kimi-plugin-cc

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install kimi, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 2 skills, 12 commands, 1 agent.

Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00024	$0.00356
Opus 5.5	$0.00010	$0.00142
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00005	$0.00071
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00036

Security

Grade A, and why

kimi:challenge scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

/kimi:challenge

Steerable adversarial review. Pressure-test assumptions and challenge the chosen approach.

Usage

/kimi:challenge
/kimi:challenge --base main
/kimi:challenge --background look for race conditions and question the caching design

Process

Capture diff

Bash("node plugins/kimi/scripts/broker.mjs branch-diff --base <ref>")

Load challenge prompt template

Read("plugins/kimi/prompts/challenge.md")

Dispatch to Kimi

Combine prompt template + diff + optional focus text.
Use the explore role (--role explore).
Invoke via broker:

Bash("node plugins/kimi/scripts/broker.mjs dispatch \
  --prompt '<combined>' \
  --role explore \
  --mode challenge \
  [--background]")

Parse output
- Validate against schemas/review-output.schema.json.
- Render findings grouped by severity.

Output

{
  "summary": "string",
  "findings": [
    {"severity": "warning", "topic": "concurrency", "message": "...", "alternative": "..."}
  ]
}

Notes

Read-only. Does not fix code.
Use before shipping to pressure-test design choices.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
