# Kimi Code CLI Help

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

## Strategy

1. **Prefer official documentation** for most questions
2. **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)
3. **Clone and explore source** for complex internals not covered in docs - **ask user for confirmation first**
