Moonshot exposes an Anthropic-compatible endpoint, so pointing Claude Code at K3 means setting the Anthropic base URL and supplying a Moonshot key. No new CLI, no config rewrite. Hosted at $3/$15 per Mtok, same tier as Claude Sonnet 4.6, and Artificial Analysis scores K3 at 57 on its Intelligence Index (4th of 189, comparable to Opus 4.8 at 56). Self-hosting is the catch: paddo.dev pegs required hardware at roughly $550k for an 8-way B300, MI350X or Rubin NVL8 cluster. Open weights is not the same as "you can run it." (Moonshot AI)

Moonshot AI released Kimi K3, a sparse mixture-of-experts activating 16 of 896 experts per token. That's about 1.8% of the pool live at any moment, with a 1M-token context window and native vision. Two new architectural pieces show up: Kimi Delta Attention and Attention Residu...
DeepClaude hit 470 points on Hacker News. It swaps Claude Code's API backend to DeepSeek V4 Pro while preserving the full agent loop: file editing, bash execution, git tooling, the whole workflow. DeepSeek V4 Pro scores 96.4% on LiveCodeBench at a fraction of Anthropic's prici...
Moonshot AI dropped Kimi K2.6 today and the numbers are hard to ignore. One trillion parameters total, 32 billion active per token across 384 experts, 256K context window, and native multimodal input. It scores 58.6 on SWE-Bench Pro versus GPT-5.4's 57.7 and Claude Opus 4.6's...
Anthropic launched Claude Sonnet 4.6 claiming performance comparable to Opus 4.5 at $3/$15 per million tokens (vs. Opus's $5/$25). SWE-bench Verified: 79.6% (near Opus 4.6's 80.8%). OSWorld-Verified: 72.5% (tied with Opus 4.6's 72.7%). 1M token context window in beta. Now the...
The open-weight race just changed constraint. Moonshot AI suspended all new consumer subscriptions on July 20, roughly 48 hours after Kimi K3 launched, because request volume pushed its compute cluster to capacity. Remaining GPUs are reserved for existing paid subscribers. Tec...
On June 9, Anthropic released Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 across Claude.ai, Claude Code (CLI and web), and Cowork. The spec sheet: 1M-token context, 128K max output, a January 2026 knowledge cutoff, and pricing at $10 input / $50 output per million tokens. That's double Opus 4...
