Connect Kimi Code to thirds.ai

Use Kimi Code CLI to fill saved designs with new names, dates, and prices. See the Kimi examples. This setup is for Kimi Code, not the consumer Kimi chat app.

Add the server

Create a key on the API keys page. Set THIRDS_API_KEY in the environment that starts Kimi Code. Add this to your user configuration at ~/.kimi-code/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "thirds": {
      "url": "https://thirds.ai/mcp",
      "bearerTokenEnvVar": "THIRDS_API_KEY"
    }
  }
}

A URL without a transport field selects HTTP. bearerTokenEnvVar names the variable that holds your key. Keep the key out of prompts and project files.

The Kimi Code MCP guide owns these settings.

Check the connection

Start a new session. Newly added servers do not join a session that is already open. Run /mcp to check the connection, then ask Kimi to list your saved designs.

If the connection fails, check the environment variable and use /mcp-config to inspect the entry. Read MCP costs and retries before making files.
