This release is a small, under-the-hood update for the Kimi command line tool. It doesn't add flashy new buttons or features for you to play with, but it helps the development team keep better track of how the AI handles your follow-up questions.
Improvements
- Better tracking of follow-up questions: When you ask a "side question" (a quick follow-up while the AI is working), the app now records it as a "tool call" event. A tool call is basically when the AI uses a specific built-in skill or function. This helps the developers better understand and analyze how you interact with the AI.
Fixes
No specific bugs were squashed in this release.
