Moonshot AI has launched Kimi Hosted Agents, a cloud service that packages the agent runtime, or harness, as a managed product rather than leaving enterprises to build and maintain that layer themselves, according to IT Home and the company's open-platform documentation. Framed as Harness as a Service, the offering lets teams configure agents on Kimi's infrastructure and get a 24/7 hosted environment for long-running tasks and multi-agent collaboration, with companies able to point agents at internal systems for monitoring, research and operations work or embed them in customer-facing products as research or support assistants. Kimi Hosted Agents provides isolated sandboxes with network-access controls, session boundaries that operators can stop at any time, and execution logs that can be exported for audit; usage reports break out sandbox hours, model inference and plugin calls, and IT Home cites a sandbox rate of 0.072 yuan per hour plus model and plugin charges. The platform currently lists more than 140 skills and more than 30 plugins covering web search, professional data queries, office documents and content generation, and developers can attach their own tools, data sources and MCP services. An optional security component, Kimi Inference Hook, lets an enterprise's own or third-party safety service inspect task inputs and tool returns before each model call, limited to enterprise-verified customers, and documentation also describes self-hosted environments in which sandbox tools run on machines the customer controls while orchestration stays on the platform.
