Decision answer

Use K3Nova when you want a Kimi-style workspace that keeps the prompt, source context, tool choice, and next action in one working surface. It is useful for long-context research, coding plans, document drafts, slide outlines, sheet cleanup, website planning, and agent handoffs.

Use official Kimi pages when the task is account login, official billing, API keys, membership, or support. K3Nova is independent, so it should help you evaluate and run a workflow without pretending to be the official Kimi account portal.

AI handoff prompt and permissions

Copy this prompt into Kimi Code, K3Nova, or another AI agent. Keep approval manual for file writes, shell commands, account actions, and secrets.

Copyable AI prompt

Use this to give the agent the task and safety boundary in one message.

You are my AI agent for this task: choose the right Kimi K3 workspace surface for my task, prepare the source context, and keep official account, billing, and credential actions separate.
Start by restating the goal and the permissions you need.
Use official docs or the files I provide before making claims.
Give me a direct answer first, then a short table or checklist.
If commands are needed, show exact copyable commands without a shell prompt.
Ask before writing files, running shell commands, deleting or moving data, logging in, spending money, changing account settings, or handling API keys.
Stop and ask me when a step requires secrets, payment, account access, destructive cleanup, or a permission broader than the task.

Recommended AI permissions

PermissionGive AIWhy
Public researchAllow official docs, cited public pages, and web search results.Needed to refresh facts without touching private data.
Local filesDo not allow local file access unless you name a folder for inspection.Most research pages do not need your machine.
Write or shellAsk before Write, Edit, Bash, or any command execution.Keeps the task reviewable.
Sensitive actionsDeny login, payment, API keys, account changes, and private screenshots.Those actions need a human decision.

Evaluation path

Start with the task

Name the output before choosing a tool: research memo, code plan, document edit, slide outline, spreadsheet cleanup, website draft, or agent runbook.

Choose the workspace surface

Use K3Nova for practical workspace evaluation, Kimi Code for terminal and IDE coding work, and official Kimi pages for account, membership, and API actions.

Bring source context

Paste or attach the smallest useful source bundle, then describe the reader, constraints, output format, and one follow-up check.

Check the boundary

Before entering credentials, paying, running shell commands, or granting file access, confirm which product owns that action and whether approval is needed.

Limits to keep visible

What workspace means

A workspace is more than a chat box. It should keep context, modes, files, output goals, and next steps visible enough that a task can continue without being rebuilt from scratch.

Where K3Nova fits

K3Nova fits when you want to test a Kimi-style flow for planning, research, coding, documents, slides, sheets, web pages, and safe AI-agent handoff prompts.

Where official Kimi fits

Official Kimi surfaces are the right place for official account login, membership, API configuration, Kimi Code entitlement, Kimi Agent, and Kimi support actions.
