Kimi Linear is not enhanced by tool calls. However, Kimi Linear can use the same configuration as kimi k2, just specify that the tool parser is kimi_k2.

@zhiyuan8 Wish list for next update :

• Tool call support
• thinking version trained with RL (thinking emulation with system prompt seems to help a bit, so a real thinking model would be great) and kimi-vl-thinking is already partially there
• Quantization Aware Training for better 4bit quality with official 4bit variant
• coding version with more training on aider/opencode/... and agentic use.
  • Honestly, it's a good coder, but (using AWQ 4bit) :
    • it doesn't always follow instructions in aider for diff-edit. Didn't try other coding cli.
    • it fails on generating git diffs sometimes
• when issues are fixed, benchmark it on https://aider.chat/docs/leaderboards/. This gets great visibility, like those posts about K2 performances on X or youtube or on r/LocalLLaMA
• kimi-cli integration

Frankly it works really well, quite good for local coding. Can't run K2 locally, but this is great.

K2 for architecture planning/debuging large codebase and Kimi-Linear as small coder = best combo !

Kimi-Linear is not available on API ? You should add it, it would be a great addition.

exaple of errors I get in aider :

I'll update the TODO.md file with the changes you specified:
