Hello, I noticed that the docs have recently updated the rate limit information.
When I use the agent team feature in Claude Code, sub-agents are created for concurrent operations, which makes it easy to trigger 429 errors and cause development to be paused or rolled back.
Is this an issue with the request mechanism or is the limit unreasonable?
This requires a case-by-case analysis. If you are using Kimi Code Membership, please note that for API calls outside of kimi-cli, our Kimi Code team also supports third-party Agents. See Use in Third-Party Coding Agents for details—you’re welcome to use whichever setup best fits your workflow.
The 429 error could indicate a rate limit exceeded error (which typically includes a specific prompt or message indicating the limit), or it may simply reflect the engine being temporarily overloaded. These limits are currently only based on user request volume and our server design capacity. Please be assured that we are actively working on expanding our server capacity to handle higher loads.
Additionally, when using external agents, there may occasionally be compatibility or adaptation issues. We will continue to update the server side and work on improvements through our collaborations to support these workflows better.
