What Kimi K3 can do in your social accounts
Kimi Code runs Moonshot's K3 models in the terminal; K3 is the previous flagship and k3.1-pro the current one. Its long context fits the replies to many posts at once, which makes it good at the reading half of social work.
read_post returns a post with up to 100 replies, and read_conversation a whole DM thread. Kimi reads them through BuzzTake, writes the themes to a file in your project, and drafts answers for you to send.
In Kimi Code's Ask When Needed mode, MCP calls are approved by themselves, and kimi -p asks no one. Keep a person in the loop with BuzzTake: plan posts as drafts, and use a key that cannot post for headless runs.
It works on X, Instagram, Reddit, YouTube and TikTok, and on every other platform BuzzTake connects. Each action is one tool, named as in the actions reference.

What it costs
BuzzTake charges in prepaid credits for the actions it runs. One credit is one US cent.
| Job | Credits | USD |
|---|---|---|
| Sort the replies to a launch | 40 | $0.40 |
| Triage a full inbox | 84 | $0.84 |
| Answers for the top questions | 40 | $0.40 |
| Who follows two competitors | 8 | $0.08 |
A post, a quote or a message is 10 credits, a reply 8, a like or a follow 3, and a read or a search 4. A planned post costs nothing until it goes out. Reads are charged when they succeed, and a write that fails before the page changes is refunded.
Kimi K3's model use is billed by Moonshot AI, not by BuzzTake. Every price is on the pricing page, and the rules are in Credits.
Approvals and safety
A person can approve before anything goes out, and every action is recorded.
Kimi approves MCP calls by itself in Ask When Needed mode, and kimi -p requests no human approval. Deny rules still apply.
So the person in the loop is BuzzTake's: a key with inbox_read and content_write reads and plans drafts, and a reviewer approves each post.
- Ask for drafts when a person must check first.
create_contentputs the post on the calendar,submit_for_reviewsends it to a reviewer, and it goes out only after the approval. - Give the agent an API key without the
content_publishpermission. It can then plan drafts and send them for review, and it cannot post by itself. - BuzzTake records every action: who asked, through which key, on which account, what the page returned and what it cost.
- A sign-in step that BuzzTake cannot finish, such as a 2FA code, becomes a challenge. The agent asks you for the code, or gives you a link to a live browser where you answer it.
- Only an owner or an administrator can allow an OAuth client. Disconnect it under Developers in the app, and its token stops working.

Limits
read_postreturns up to 100 replies per post, andlimiton list reads is 1 to 100.- Kimi Code's cron jobs belong to their session: 50 per session, and recurring ones end after 7 days.
- In a headless run, project-level servers stay off until the folder is trusted with
KIMI_CODE_TRUST_WORKSPACE=1. - An action tool waits up to 120 seconds for its result. A longer action comes back with its id, and
get_actionfollows it to the end. - The MCP server runs up to 8 requests at a time for one key or sign-in. Above that it answers 429 with
Retry-After, and the client tries again. - One organization connects up to 200 accounts.
- The platforms set their own pace. When one asks an account to slow down, the action ends with
rate_limited, and a write that failed before the page changed is refunded.
Troubleshooting
Every error code and its fix is in Errors and challenges.
- kimi.com does not show BuzzTake
- kimi.com documents no custom MCP servers. Use Kimi Code, or the Plugin Builder in Kimi Work.
kimi mcp adddoes not exist- That command was in the archived Python CLI. Kimi Code uses
mcp.jsonor/mcp-config. - The client says the server refused the token (401)
- The sign-in expired or was revoked, or the API key is wrong. Sign in again from the client, or make a new key under Developers.
- An action stops at
needs_input - The platform asked for a code. Give the code to the agent so it calls
answer_challenge, or open the challenge'ssign_in_urland answer in the live browser. - The answer is
insufficient_credits - The balance is lower than the price, and nothing was queued. A post needs 10 credits. Top up, then ask again.
- The answer is
unsupported - The platform has no such action. The error lists the actions it has, and the generic
browseraction can do the rest step by step. - An account shows
signed_out - Its session ended and no stored password could sign it in again. Ask the agent for a sign-in link with
get_sign_in_linkand open it, or reconnect the account in the app.

- Ten read_post calls with 100 replies each, 40 credits. Kimi's own use is billed by Moonshot AI.
