Universal data-source assistant. Use this skill when the user wants external structured data such as stocks, financial reports, technical indicators, A-share/HK/US markets, global macroeconomics, Chinese enterprise registry information, arXiv papers, Google Scholar results, or Chinese laws/regulations and judicial cases. This plugin exposes tools via MCP server `plugin-kimi-datasource_data`; call them in the flow `mcp__plugin-kimi-datasource_data__get_data_source_desc` → `mcp__plugin-kimi-datasource_data__call_data_source_tool`.
Use when generating changesets in the kimi-code repository, including package bump selection, internal package and CLI bundle handling, bump levels, major confirmation, and English changelog wording.
Use before merging a kimi-code release PR to preview the user-facing CLI changelog in Chinese. Reads the changelog that changesets pre-generated in the release PR, then reuses sync-changelog's strip / classify / translate logic to render a Chinese preview. Writes no files.
Use when writing or modifying the kimi-code terminal UI in apps/nori-code/src/tui — components, dialogs/selectors, slash commands, themes, streaming render, or the KimiTUI controllers. Covers the architecture, where new features go, test placement, the theme system mechanics, and the dialog interaction/visual spec (DESIGN.md).

kimi-code uses changesets for versioning. Each package gets its own CHANGELOG.md. The user-facing CLI package, @moonshot-ai/kimi-code, writes its changelog here:
apps/nori-code/CHANGELOG.md
This file is the only upstream source for the documentation-site changelog. Internal package changelogs such as packages/*/CHANGELOG.md do not go into the documentation site.
After the release flow finishes (Release PR merged → Version Packages completed → npm publish succeeded), maintainers manually run this skill to copy the new CLI changelog entries into the docs site, translate the English increment into Chinese, wait for an optional human review, then commit on a dedicated branch and open a PR.
apps/nori-code/CHANGELOG.md contains version blocks that are not yet in docs/en/release-notes/changelog.md.gen-docs flow does not run this automatically; maintainers must explicitly do it after release.Do not run this before the Release PR is merged. At that point, changesets has not yet written the new version into apps/nori-code/CHANGELOG.md.
| File | Role | Edited by |
|---|---|---|
apps/nori-code/CHANGELOG.md | Only upstream source, generated by changesets | Never edit manually |
docs/en/release-notes/changelog.md | English docs changelog; source of truth for docs | This skill |
docs/zh/release-notes/changelog.md | Chinese docs changelog, translated from English | This skill, following translate-docs |
Core rule: the English docs changelog is the source of truth, and Chinese is translated from English. This matches translate-docs.
Before editing, confirm:
npm view @moonshot-ai/kimi-code versions --json) or has a matching GitHub Release tag.apps/nori-code/CHANGELOG.md is that new version.If any condition is not true, stop and confirm with the user.
Do not edit or commit directly on main. All sync work happens on a dedicated branch created in step 1.
Start from an up-to-date default branch:
git fetch origin
git checkout main
git pull --ff-only origin main
Before creating the branch, peek at the version range so the branch name matches the newest version being synced:
rg '^## ' apps/nori-code/CHANGELOG.md | head -5
rg '^## ' docs/en/release-notes/changelog.md | head -5
Name the branch after the newest upstream version that is not yet in the English docs page:
docs/changelog-sync-<newest-version>
Example: syncing 0.2.1 only → docs/changelog-sync-0.2.1.
git checkout -b docs/changelog-sync-<newest-version>
If the branch already exists locally or on the remote, stop and confirm with the user instead of reusing it.
Use the same version lists from step 1. Confirm:
Use upstream order: newest version first.
Upstream entries look like this:
- [#317](https://github.com/...) [`2f51db4`](https://github.com/...) - Clean up lint warnings ...
Keep:
## 0.2.0.Remove:
# @moonshot-ai/kimi-code because the docs page already has # Changelog.### Patch Changes, ### Minor Changes, and ### Major Changes.[#317](...).[`2f51db4`](...).After stripping, each entry should be only:
- <body text>
Upstream language rule: gen-changesets requires changelog entries to be English. If the upstream CLI changelog contains a non-English entry, stop and report it to the user. Do not silently rewrite it while syncing docs.
Public-text rule: do not copy real internal endpoints, key names, account names, or service names into docs changelogs. Replace examples with neutral placeholders such as example.com, example.test, or YOUR_API_KEY while preserving the user-visible meaning.
The docs changelog uses five section types:
| English section | Chinese section | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
### Features | ### 新功能 | New user-facing functionality, such as a new command, flag, mode, or capability that did not exist before |
### Bug Fixes | ### 修复 | Fixes for behavior that was broken |
### Polish | ### 优化 | User-visible improvements to existing functionality, including UX adjustments, behavior tweaks, and performance improvements that are not fixes or new capabilities |
### Refactors | ### 重构 | Internal changes with no user-visible behavior change, including build, CI, tests, dependency cleanup, and internal renames |
### Other | ### 其他 | Anything that does not fit above, such as CDN/endpoint swaps and docs-related artifacts |
Classification process:
git show <hash>.gh pr view <NNN>.Other. Do not guess or force entries into Features.Features vs. Polish: ask whether the entry introduces something the user could not do before. If yes (new command, flag, mode, viewer, or capability), use Features. If it only improves an existing surface (a UI panel that already existed, an existing prompt, an existing tool card, an existing payload pipeline), use Polish. Verbs like Add do not automatically mean Features — a small visual addition to an existing UI is still polish.
Keyword hints:
Add ... command/flag/option/mode/viewer, Introduce, Support, Allow, Enable, Implement, New ... command/flag/optionFix, Resolve, Correct, Address, Prevent ... from, Stop ... from, ... no longer ...Polish, Optimize, Improve, Enhance, Speed up, Reduce, Cap, Shorten, Wrap, Clarify, Tweak, Adjust, Offload, Show ... in existing surface, performance and UX adjustments to existing featuresRefactor, Rename, Clean up, Simplify, Remove unused, Migrate to, Unify, Restructure, Internal, dependency bumps, pure CI/build/test changesWithin each version, section order is:
Features → Bug Fixes → Polish → Refactors → Other
Omit empty sections. Within each section, order entries by reader value, not upstream order:
Do not reword or exaggerate entries just to make them look more important; only reorder existing entries.
Never change the English page header:
# Changelog
This page documents the changes in each Kimi Code CLI release.
Insert new version blocks immediately after the header paragraph and before the previous latest version.
Every version heading must carry its release date in parentheses:
## <version> (YYYY-MM-DD)
Take the date from the version's published GitHub Release tag, not from when you run the sync:
git log -1 --format=%cs "@moonshot-ai/kimi-code@<version>"
Use the half-width parenthesis form (YYYY-MM-DD) on the English page. Never invent or guess a date; if the tag is missing, stop and confirm with the user.
Example:
## 0.2.0 (2026-05-26)
### Bug Fixes
- Fix the TUI not restoring the current todo list after resuming a session.
### Refactors
- Clean up lint warnings across the CLI, SDK examples, and bundled runtime code without changing product behavior.
- Update the native release workflow to use current GitHub artifact actions.
After updating the English page, translate only the newly added English content into docs/zh/release-notes/changelog.md.
Follow translate-docs, direction en → zh. Changelog direction is English-to-Chinese even though many other docs flows use Chinese-to-English.
Chinese page requirements:
Header:
# 变更记录
本页记录 Kimi Code CLI 每个版本的变更内容。
Preserve version headings including the release date, but use full-width parentheses on the Chinese page, such as ## 0.2.0（2026-05-26）. The date must match the English page; only the parenthesis style differs (half-width () in English, full-width （） in Chinese).
Translate section headings exactly:
### Features → ### 新功能### Bug Fixes → ### 修复### Polish → ### 优化### Refactors → ### 重构### Other → ### 其他The Chinese page must mirror the English page 1:1 for versions, sections, section order, entry order, and entry counts.
Keep the classification and entry order from the English page. Do not reclassify or reorder while translating.
Translate only entry body text. Do not add entries that are not present in English.
Follow docs/AGENTS.md for Chinese typography: full-width punctuation, spaces between Chinese and English, and the glossary.
Structural fidelity does not mean literal translation. The Chinese entries should read like a concise, idiomatic Chinese changelog. Keep the same facts as the English entry, but rephrase for natural Chinese prose.

Before (literal, wordy):
- 为 `kimi web` 新增 `--allowed-host` 标志，允许额外的 Host 请求头值通过 DNS 重绑定检查，并在 403 错误消息中包含允许指引。传入 `--allowed-host <host>` 以允许额外的 host。例如 `kimi web --allowed-host example.com`。
After (concise, idiomatic):
- `kimi web` 新增 `--allowed-host <host>` 选项，可将指定 Host 加入 DNS 重绑定白名单；403 错误会提示如何通过 `--allowed-host` 或 `KIMI_CODE_ALLOWED_HOSTS` 放行，例如 `kimi web --allowed-host example.com`。
Review:
git diff docs/en/release-notes/changelog.md docs/zh/release-notes/changelog.md
Check:
Then run the docs build:
pnpm --filter docs run build
After verification passes, before committing, ask the user whether they want to review the sync result. Use AskQuestion with options such as:
If the user chooses review:
Show the uncommitted diff:
git diff docs/en/release-notes/changelog.md docs/zh/release-notes/changelog.md
Summarize synced versions, section counts, and anything that needed manual classification.
Tell the user to reply when they are done reviewing, or to ask for edits.
Do not commit, push, or open a PR until the user explicitly says review is complete, or asks to proceed.
If the user requests edits during review, make the changes, re-run verification from step 7, and return to this checkpoint.
Only run this step when the user skipped review or confirmed review is complete.
Stage only the changelog docs files:
git add docs/en/release-notes/changelog.md docs/zh/release-notes/changelog.md
Use a neutral docs-sync commit message:
docs(changelog): sync <version range> from apps/nori-code/CHANGELOG.md
Do not create a changeset for changelog docs sync. Docs sync does not enter the bundle.
Run immediately after step 9.
Push the branch:
git push -u origin HEAD
Create the PR with gh pr create. Title follows Conventional Commits:
docs(changelog): sync <version range> from apps/nori-code/CHANGELOG.md
Fill in .github/pull_request_template.md. For changelog sync PRs:
N/A — post-release docs maintenance (no issue required).pnpm --filter docs run build).gen-docs is not needed because this is the dedicated changelog sync flow.Example body:
## Related Issue
N/A — post-release docs maintenance
## Problem

apps/nori-code/CHANGELOG.md..changeset/*.md drafts into the docs site.docs/changelog-sync-* branch and open a PR; never push changelog docs sync directly to main.| Mistake | Fix |
|---|---|
| Adding entries directly to the English docs page without reading upstream | Use apps/nori-code/CHANGELOG.md as the source |
| Copying PR links or commit hashes into docs | Strip them; keep only body text |
| Rewording upstream English entries | Upstream is frozen; copy the body text unless the user explicitly asks otherwise |
| Leaving English text untranslated in the Chinese page | The Chinese page must be fully Chinese except preserved technical terms |
| Editing upstream changelog text | Do not edit upstream |
| Losing two-space indentation in multi-line list items | Restore indentation so Markdown lists stay valid |
Copying ### Patch Changes into docs | Remove changesets headings and classify under Features / Bug Fixes / Polish / Refactors / Other |
| Guessing unclear entries as Features | Inspect commit/PR; if still unclear, use Other |
Treating any Add ... line as Features | If the entry only adds a small element to an existing UI/surface, use Polish |
| Filing UX or performance tweaks under Other | Use Polish for user-visible improvements to existing functionality |
| Preserving upstream order when a small entry hides a larger change | Reorder within the section so the highest-value, most obvious items appear first |
| Reclassifying entries while translating | Chinese classification must mirror English |
| Leaving empty sections | Delete sections with no entries |
| Putting everything under Other for convenience | Classify what can be classified first |
| Translating tool names, command names, or config keys | Keep them as written |
| Creating a changeset for docs sync | Do not create one |
Committing or pushing directly on main | Create docs/changelog-sync-<version>, commit there, then open a PR |
| Committing or opening a PR before the user skips review or confirms review is done | Wait at the human review checkpoint |
| Using curly quotes or half-width Chinese punctuation | Follow docs/AGENTS.md |
| Omitting the release date from a version heading, or guessing it | Add (YYYY-MM-DD) (full-width （） in Chinese) taken from the published tag |
