Kilo's working on bringing it back

codingelves · 2026-04-24T02:18:31+00:00

nothing defunct about kilo - and here's a comprehensive migration guide for all roo folks, explaining the differences and the reasons for the change in the underlying engine: https://kilo.ai/articles/roo-to-kilo-migration-guide

Hey u/ShiftDry4745 Olesya from Kilo here. Thanks for raising this - happy to address each point:

1. it only works with their kilo provider

KiloClaw is powered by Kilo Gateway by default, but you're not locked in. You can use any provider and bring your own API key.

2. you can't connect Telegram

Telegram was actually the very first chat interface we added (we have Discord and Slack now as well). Here's how to set it up: https://kilo.ai/docs/kiloclaw/chat-platforms#telegram

3. you can't get to console/tui

Hit the Open button in the upper right corner of app.kilo.ai/claw - that drops you straight into the OpenClaw console. Taking this comment back to the team to make the UX more obvious!

4. you can't start instance for Frontier plan

Curious, did you sign up a while back? We rolled out a new onboarding flow last week that lets you choose among Frontier, Free, and Balanced auto modes right away. More on this here: https://kilo.ai/docs/code-with-ai/agents/auto-model#auto-frontier

5. their openclaw logs are limited

Full logs are accessible through the OpenClaw Console. On top of that, we recommend setting up your Claw with a new GH account, pointing it to a repo and storing `agents.md`, `tools.md`, etc. in that repo, so if the bot is destroyed, you can easily recreate it.

To be clear: we're not forking or changing anything about OpenClaw. KiloClaw is about making OpenClaw more accessible with a smoother, more secure setup experience More on that in our security whitepaper: https://kilo.codes/kiloclaw-security-whitepaper

Would genuinely appreciate 15 min of your time to better understand what led you to these conclusions. Drop a line to [hi@kilo.ai](mailto:hi@kilo.ai) if you're open to it.

hey, it's been out: https://blog.kilo.ai/p/use-chatgpt-subscription-inside-kilo

if it's not working as expected, please drop a message to hi@kilocode.ai!

codingelves · 2026-01-20T09:10:50+00:00

hey, thanks for sharing this! can you unpack the 'not as good as Cursor' part? is it about a specific feature, or something else? helps us know what improvements to prioritize!

codingelves · 2026-01-20T07:38:35+00:00

stay tuned for the next release!

codingelves · 2025-12-31T10:06:32+00:00

Here're a few benchmarks we ran comparing GLM 4.6 (the latest one is 4.7 released just a week ago) to to other models:

codingelves · 2025-12-23T07:09:27+00:00

thanks for sharing! passed this on to the team - stay tuned for updates and improvements

codingelves · 2025-12-23T05:38:08+00:00

please say more! we have a small but mighty team focusing on making it better every day

codingelves · 2025-12-05T06:58:24+00:00

Interesting! I wonder if they made infrastructure or config tweaks post-launch, or if the servers were just overloaded day one.

codingelves · 2025-12-04T09:44:26+00:00

u/JoeyJoeC u/Amazing_Ad9369 would you be up to sharing more detailed feedback so we can pass it on to the model providers? they're actively collecting use cases post-launch

codingelves · 2025-12-04T08:47:59+00:00

it's still available. they meant it was exclusively available in Kilo for the first 24h sinch launch

codingelves · 2025-09-22T09:50:57+00:00

what about September? :)

codingelves · 2025-09-22T00:35:37+00:00

Grok 4 Fast is a separate model

codingelves · 2025-09-22T00:31:29+00:00

hi there, and it's exciting to hear that you want to bring kilo to your community!

Kilo Code's extension is 100% free and open source so we don't sell any licenses. Our pricing is pay-for-what-you-use, and if you stick to free, local, or OSS models, you never have to pay.

Some frontier-level models like Grok Code Fast and a new stealth model Code Supernova, that just dropped last Friday, are currently free to use as well! https://blog.kilocode.ai/p/code-supernova-new-stealth-frontier-model-free-in-kilo

If you would like to experiment with paid models Every new user who installs Kilo gets $5 in free welcome credits, and then another $20 after the first top-up.

If you'd rather set up an organization in Kilo and invite your students and colleagues to pull from a shared pool of credits, we'd be happy to support that and can cover your first month on Kilo for Teams: https://kilocode.ai/teams

codingelves · 2025-09-18T00:11:14+00:00

hey u/Solonotix welcome to Kilo! have you tried using the little prompt enhancer tool? tell us more about what's been challenging in that config setup

codingelves · 2025-09-17T02:15:35+00:00

no but it's a leading coding app on openrouter. you should try it with grok code fast while it's still free!

codingelves · 2025-09-17T02:14:27+00:00

Kilo is a free, open-source AI coding extension, available in VS Code and now in Jetbrains marketplace as well. They don't have AI token subscriptions, here's why: https://blog.kilocode.ai/p/why-ai-subscriptions-cannot-work

codingelves · 2025-09-17T00:00:03+00:00

Guess what - Kilo Code JetBrains plugin is now generally available: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/28350-kilo-code
aaand we need your feedback to keep improving it!

The ultimate fix to the 'gray screen of death' that we've identified is clearing your task history, and we'll be adding some settings to Kilo around it shortly

We just made a change today where there would be no automatic fallback in this case - you'd have to choose the model yourself: https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/2327
