What Kimi-Agent does

Kimi's browsing agent, which visits sites while it carries out research and tasks for a user.

As an autonomous agent, it uses a website like a person would, clicking, typing and filling in forms to finish a task for someone. The kinds of AI agent that visit websites.

Should you allow it?

Make your journeys work for it. Many browser agents look like an ordinary browser, so you can't reliably block them by name; test whether they can finish your key tasks instead. A decision guide for blocking or allowing AI crawlers.

How to allow or block Kimi-Agent

Kimi-Agent reads the Kimi-Agent group in your robots.txt. To block it everywhere:

User-agent: Kimi-Agent
Disallow: /

To allow it everywhere, even if another rule blocks other bots:

User-agent: Kimi-Agent
Allow: /

Robots.txt is a request, not a lock: well-behaved crawlers follow it, impostors don't. Robots.txt for AI agents.

How to tell if it's really Kimi-Agent

Our registry doesn't verify Kimi-Agent against published IP ranges yet, so treat a request that uses the name as a claim, not proof: anyone can send its user agent. Check Moonshot AI's documentation for how to verify it.
