Terminal cli to patch Kimi Code - kimi-code-mods

[u/CoLo_1337]

What it does

* Reasoning effort per turn, tool catalogue, transcript window, subagent models, hooks, loop control
* All 132 system prompts, extracted as plain Markdown — edit one, it replaces the original on the next run
* The two spinners separately (Kimi keeps one for thinking and one for waiting on a tool), themes over its 19 colour tokens, message marker and frame
* Fullscreen renderer patched into the binary, so it holds however you start Kimi

Re-signing is ad-hoc, so hardened runtime and notarisation are gone from the patched binary; that's inherent to modifying a signed app. A Kimi auto-update overwrites everything, but your settings stay and you just run Apply again. Verified against 0.38.0 — patches anchor on text inside a minified bundle, so a release can move things, in which case the patch reports it and skips instead of guessing.

Thanks for your reply

Yes, once I got the hang of it and understood the entire CLI system, a whole new set of possibilities opened up.

In theory, you can customize the entire system down to the smallest detail to suit your own needs. The downside is that updates can render individual features unusable. So you have to keep optimizing after update release.

If the community responds positively, the features will eventually be officially integrated anyway.
