Kimi Code CLI Help

Help users with Kimi Code CLI questions by consulting documentation and source code.

Strategy

Prefer official documentation for most questions
Read local source when in kimi-cli project itself, or when user is developing with kimi-cli as a library (e.g., importing from kimi_cli in their code)
Clone and explore source for complex internals not covered in docs - ask user for confirmation first
