Kimi K3.1 Pro and K3.1 Pro Highspeed

Kimi Code has fully rolled out K3.1 Pro, its most capable 3T-class model with a 1M context window, plus K3.1 Pro Highspeed offering roughly 2–3× the speed with identical capabilities. The K3.1 Pro models only support thinking mode (requests with thinking disabled are rejected), and the API supports OpenAI Responses/Chat Completions and Anthropic protocols. Switching models or thinking effort mid-session invalidates the context cache and increases token usage, and mistyped model IDs silently fall back to K2.8 Preview without thinking.
