AI SDK - Moonshot AI Provider

The Moonshot AI provider for the AI SDK contains language model support for the Kimi API Platform, including the Kimi model series.

Deploying to Vercel? With Vercel's AI Gateway you can access Moonshot AI (and hundreds of models from other providers) — no additional packages, API keys, or extra cost. Get started with AI Gateway.

Setup

The Moonshot AI provider is available in the @ai-sdk/moonshotai module. You can install it with

npm i @ai-sdk/moonshotai

Skill for Coding Agents

If you use coding agents such as Claude Code or Cursor, we highly recommend adding the AI SDK skill to your repository:

npx skills add vercel/ai

Provider Instance

You can import the default provider instance moonshotai from @ai-sdk/moonshotai:

import { moonshotai } from '@ai-sdk/moonshotai';

Language Model Example

import { moonshotai } from '@ai-sdk/moonshotai';
import { generateText } from 'ai';

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: moonshotai('kimi-k3'),
  prompt: 'Write a JavaScript function that sorts a list:',
});

Reasoning Effort Example (Kimi K3)

import {
  moonshotai,
  type MoonshotAILanguageModelOptions,
} from '@ai-sdk/moonshotai';
import { generateText } from 'ai';

const { text, reasoningText } = await generateText({
  model: moonshotai('kimi-k3'),
  prompt: 'Solve this problem step by step: What is 15% of 240?',
  providerOptions: {
    moonshotai: {
      reasoningEffort: 'high',
    } satisfies MoonshotAILanguageModelOptions,
  },
});

console.log(reasoningText);
console.log(text);

Kimi K2.6 supports thinking and non-thinking modes. Enable it with thinking: { type: 'enabled' } or disable it with thinking: { type: 'disabled' }.

Kimi K2.7 Code always has thinking enabled and uses Preserved Thinking. Keep reasoning history in multi-turn conversations:

import {
  moonshotai,
  type MoonshotAILanguageModelOptions,
} from '@ai-sdk/moonshotai';
import { generateText } from 'ai';

const { text, reasoningText } = await generateText({
  model: moonshotai('kimi-k2.7-code'),
  prompt: 'Solve this problem step by step: What is 15% of 240?',
  providerOptions: {
    moonshotai: {
      thinking: { type: 'enabled' },
      reasoningHistory: 'preserved',
    } satisfies MoonshotAILanguageModelOptions,
  },
});

console.log(reasoningText);
console.log(text);
