Kimi models in Taskade are the reliable, efficient end of the catalog. They build steadily and hold long context well.

## Kimi models available today

| Model | Good at | Speed | Intelligence | Cost | Availability |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Kimi K3 | Long-context agentic reasoning | Slow | Frontier | Medium | Max and Enterprise |
| Kimi K2.7 Code | Agentic coding | Medium | High | Medium | Max and Enterprise |
| Kimi K2.6 | Open-weight generalist | Medium | High | Medium | Max and Enterprise |

## How to pick within Kimi

- **K3** when the request carries a lot of context at once, such as a long document or a large existing app.
- **K2.7 Code** for coding-shaped work specifically.
- **K2.6** as the general-purpose open-weight option.

This family is a good default when you want predictable behavior over peak scores.

## Set it on an agent or a chat

Open the model menu in the builder chat or on an agent. In the builder chat, open **More models** and choose from the provider groups. In the agent editor, choose from **All Models**. The choice applies only to that surface. An AI step in an automation offers TSK-Auto and the rungs only.

If you do not want to pin a model, a [rung](https://www.taskade.com/docs/models#tsk-rungs) sets a speed-to-depth trade-off and follows the catalog forward as models change.

## How Kimi performs

We build the same apps on every family and publish what happened. See the [Kimi build results](https://www.taskade.com/tsk/kimi) for the test-by-test record.
