I've been using this model (as a coding agent) for the past few days, and it's the first time I've felt that an open source model really competes with the big labs. So far it's been able to handle most things I've thrown at it. I'm almost hesitant to say that this is as good as Opus.

It's interesting to note that a model that can OpenAI is valued almost 400 times more than moonshotai, despite their models being surprisingly close.

The benchmarks on all these models are meaningless

I&#x27;ve been quite satisfied lately with MiniMax M-2.1 in opencode.<p>How does Kimi 2.5 compare to it in real world scenarios?

I really like the agent swarm thing, is it possible to use that functionality with OpenCode or is that a Kimi CLI specific thing? Does the agent need to be aware of the capability?

I wonder how K2.5 + OpenCode compares to Opus with CC. If it is close I would let go of my subscription, as probably a lot of people.

It&#x27;s a decent model but works best with kimi CLI, not CC or others.
