(Feat)Add Kimi as Supported Harness, Extraction/Synthesis Provider, Task Manager, Dreaming Provider

[aaf2tbz]

Summary

Adds Kimi (Kimi CLI / Kimi Code) as a first-class supported harness in Signet, on par with Codex: setup/configure integration, dashboard Active Harnesses, extraction + session-synthesis provider, task-runner harness (default model Kimi K2.7, hidden), session hooks, sync support, dreaming provider support, and full Rust daemon parity.

Reference harness: Codex. Kimi mechanics (verified against official Kimi Code docs):

• Config home: ~/.kimi-code/ (config.toml, mcp.json) — detection path
• Hooks: [[hooks]] TOML entries; events SessionStart / UserPromptSubmit / SessionEnd; event JSON on stdin, context injection via stdout
• Headless exec: kimi -p "<prompt>" --output-format stream-json (analogous to codex exec --json)
• MCP: stdio server entry in ~/.kimi-code/mcp.json

Type

• feat — new user-facing feature (bumps minor)

Packages affected

• @signet/core
• @signet/daemon
• @signet/cli / dashboard
• @signet/connector-* (new @signet/connector-kimi)
• Other: platform/daemon-rs

PR Readiness (MANDATORY)

• Spec alignment validated (INDEX.md + dependencies.yaml)
• Agent scoping verified on all new/changed data queries
• Input/config validation and bounds checks added
• Error handling and fallback paths tested (no silent swallow)
• Security checks applied to admin/mutation endpoints
• Docs updated for API/spec/status changes
• Regression tests added for each bug fix
• Lint/typecheck/tests pass locally

Changes

Core registries & detection (platform/core/src/)

• identity.ts — detect Kimi via ~/.kimi-code/config.toml.
• types.ts — TASK_HARNESSES += kimi.
• pipeline-providers.ts — extraction/synthesis provider choices += kimi.
• llm-model-catalog.ts — kimi provider + models (Kimi K3, K2.7, K2.6) + defaults.
• routing.ts — kimi executor kind.

Daemon providers (extraction / synthesis / dreaming)

• platform/daemon/src/pipeline/provider.ts — createKimiProvider (spawn kimi -p --output-format stream-json, sterile env keyed on KIMI_CODE_HOME, mirrors createCodexProvider).
• platform/daemon/src/inference-provider-factory.ts — case "kimi".
• Dreaming: synthesis-provider reuse path (dreaming-worker.ts) verified with kimi.

Connector & session hooks

• New integrations/kimi/connector package (extends libs/connector-base) — writes [[hooks]] SessionStart/UserPromptSubmit/SessionEnd into ~/.kimi-code/config.toml, adds signet MCP stdio server to ~/.kimi-code/mcp.json, skills install.
• surfaces/cli/src/commands/hook.ts — -H kimi + --kimi-json output mode.
• surfaces/cli/src/cli.ts — configureHarnessHooks dispatch case "kimi".
• platform/daemon/src/transcript-normalization.ts — kimi stream-json transcript branch + test.

CLI surfaces (setup / configure / sync)

• surfaces/cli/src/features/setup-shared.ts — HarnessChoice, SETUP_HARNESS_CHOICES, provider mapping.
• setup.ts — harness checkbox, hasCommand("kimi") detection, extraction-provider model prompts.
• configure.ts — harness checkbox.
• sync.ts — detectInstalledHarnesses().
• templates/agent.yaml.template — document kimi harness.

Dashboard

• settings.svelte.ts — KNOWN_HARNESSES += kimi (Agent tab → Active Harnesses).
• PipelineSection.svelte — Extraction/Synthesis Provider/Model kimi options (K3/K2.7).
• TaskForm.svelte — Harness selector += Kimi (default model K2.7 not shown to user).

Tasks (daemon)

• misc-routes.ts — task harness validation += kimi.
• scheduler/spawn.ts — buildCommand kimi case.
• scheduler/worker.ts — default model kimi-k2.7.

Rust daemon parity (platform/daemon-rs)

• routes/harnesses.rs, routes/scheduler.rs (VALID_HARNESSES + test), signet-pipeline provider.rs/model_registry.rs, signet-core config.rs.
• route-parity.json regenerated; bun run check:rust-parity green; cargo tests green.

Docs & tests

• docs/HARNESSES.md Kimi section; README.md harness table; docs/CLI.md; docs/CONFIGURATION.md; integrations/kimi/README.md.
• Tests cover all new kimi paths: harness-config, llm-model-catalog, routing, provider, spawn/worker, transcript-normalization, hook output, dashboard settings.

Testing

• bun test passes (core 198/200, cli 315/323, dashboard 65/65, daemon kimi-targeted suites green — remaining failures verified byte-identical on unmodified main baseline: forge detection, ACPX/process-group, linux desktop artifact env tests)
• bun run typecheck passes (core, connector-kimi)
• bun run lint / biome clean on all touched files
• Tested against running daemon (isolated SIGNET_PATH smoke: /api/harnesses returns Kimi CLI, /api/pipeline/models?provider=kimi returns K3/K2.7/K2.6, POST /api/tasks accepts harness=kimi and rejects unknown harnesses)
• bun run check:rust-parity green (328 routes, manifest regenerated); cargo tests green for signet-core/signet-pipeline/signet-daemon (5 pre-existing routes::pipeline failures on main unchanged)

Known inherited failure: check-rust-daemon-parity.test.ts has 1 failure carried over from main (2 repair routes missing in Rust) — fixed by #933, independent of this PR.

Notes

All items complete and verified.

Leaving this open but holding merge until we can verify functionality locally. The architecture review looks clean, but at 25k lines for a harness we cannot test without the Kimi binary, I need to validate it works before merging confidently.

Two cleanup items for whenever this gets picked back up:

1. Remove the committed dist/ build artifacts (22k+ lines in integrations/kimi/connector/dist/) and add a .gitignore matching the other connectors.
2. Rebase to resolve conflicts with the merged repair-route PRs.
