kimi-swarm

kimi-swarm is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from linxule/kimi-plugin-cc. It costs 37 tokens per session (424 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A read-only review process that sends separate tasks to the Kimi coding assistant for many independent targets at once. It is intended for broad requests where each target needs its own review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for large fan-out reviews, such as checking many files, components, or tasks independently with Kimi.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to inspect many unrelated targets one by one while keeping the reviews separate and avoiding changes to files.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

kimi-swarm 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 9d 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 Swarm

Forward this request to the local kimi-code companion runtime by shell. Do not use MCP for this skill.

Invocation

  • Resolve the plugin root: prefer $PLUGIN_ROOT if the host sets it; otherwise use the directory that CONTAINS the skills/ directory (i.e. two levels up from this SKILL.md).
  • Sanity check: <plugin-root>/scripts/companion.sh must exist — it is the bundled entrypoint that resolves Node and runs the compiled runtime from <plugin-root>/dist/.
  • Launch the shell command from the user's current workspace directory so scripts/companion.sh captures the intended workspace cwd.
  • Run: PLUGIN_ROOT="<plugin-root>" "<plugin-root>/scripts/companion.sh" task swarm <args>
  • If the plugin host provides PLUGIN_DATA instead of CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA, the shell wrapper exports the Claude-compatible alias for the runtime. If neither is set, the wrapper uses a Codex data directory under $CODEX_HOME/plugins/data/kimi-marketplace-kimi, ~/.codex/plugins/data/kimi-marketplace-kimi, or /tmp/kimi-plugin-cc-codex-data/kimi-marketplace-kimi in a fully sanitized environment.

Arguments

Pass through: [--budget <30m|1h>] [--cap <N>] [--max-concurrency <N>] [-m <model>] <objective>

Handling

  • Require many independent review targets plus explicit fan-out intent.
  • Pass finite budget and concurrency bounds; default to foreground unless the user explicitly asks to detach.
  • If the companion reports SWARM_HOOK_NOT_INSTALLED, tell the user to run Claude Code /kimi:setup or Codex $kimi-setup, then retry.
  • Return the consolidated companion report verbatim.
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
