    "chosen": "You're right. That work is already planned in the-matrix repo. Seven merge issues exist:\n\n  #84  Port Workshop room geometry into js/workshop.js\n  #85  Replace Timmy icosahedron with Workshop wizard avatar  \u2190 this one\n  #86  Port Pip familiar into the Matrix\n  #87  Unify lighting \u2014 Workshop warmth + Matrix ambient mood\n  #88  Wire Workshop zone trigger \u2014 walk to Timmy, enter his room\n  #89  Deploy Matrix as canonical frontend at alexanderwhitestone.com  \u2190 done now\n  #90  Retire old static/world/ from timmy-dashboard after merge\n  #91  Wire dashboard bark engine as Timmy's real voice in Matrix\n\nIssue #85 is specifically about replacing the glowing icosahedron with the Workshop wizard avatar \u2014 cone robe, sphere head, arms, the whole geometric wizard figure from `static/world/wizard.js` in the dashboard. That's your orange wizard.\n\nThese are in the-matrix repo (perplexity/the-matrix), not in Timmy-time-dashboard where Kimi's loop runs. They're also bigger than Kimi-sized \u2014 they're Three.js frontend work requiring visual judgment and cross-repo porting. Those are Timmy-tier tasks or need decomposition before Kimi can touch them.\n\nThe 19 issues I filed (#667-#685) are the backend plumbing that makes those merge issues possible \u2014 the protocol module, the API endpoints, the presence state bridge. Once Kimi finishes those, the merge work has a real backend to talk to.\n\nWant me to decompose #84-#88 into Kimi-sized pieces now so the loop can start chewing through the frontend merge too?",

    "prompt": "We only have 4 percent quota left for the day.  So lets talk about how to keep the timmy dev loop running with a different backend. What do you think?",
    "chosen": "Good call. Let's think through this clearly.\n\nThe Kimi loop burns Anthropic quota because it runs `claude` CLI \u2014 which is locked to the Anthropic API. Every issue costs ~$2 of Claude Code. At 28 issues in the queue, that's $56 more before hitting the Matrix work. Not sustainable.\n\nReal options:\n\n**1. OpenAI Codex CLI**\nYou already have an OpenAI key (Hermes uses it). Codex CLI (`codex`) is their equivalent of Claude Code \u2014 autonomous, runs in terminal, creates PRs. Swap `claude` for `codex` in the loop. Different billing, separate quota. The prompt format barely changes.\n\n**2. Aider**\nSupports 20+ backends \u2014 OpenRouter, local Ollama, Together, Groq, Deepseek. $0 if you route to local qwen3:30b. Catch: smaller models make more mistakes, so the 96% merge rate would drop. But for the mechanical refactors Kimi does (break up functions, add tests), qwen3:30b might be good enough.\n\n**3. OpenRouter as a mixer**\nRoute through OpenRouter, pick the cheapest capable model. Deepseek Coder V3 is $0.14/M tokens \u2014 roughly 10x cheaper than Claude. Could run 10x the volume for the same spend.\n\n**4. Claude via Bedrock/Vertex**\nSame model, separate billing through AWS or Google. You'd still pay, but it's not Anthropic's direct quota limit \u2014 it's whatever your AWS/GCP budget allows.\n\n**5. Local Ollama (qwen3:30b)**\nAlready running on your Mac. $0, infinite quota, works offline. The question is whether qwen3:30b can reliably do the loop work \u2014 read issue, code fix, run tox, push PR. For the simple refactors (25% of Kimi's work), probably yes. For bugs and features, riskier.\n\nMy recommendation: **Aider + Deepseek for the routine queue, keep Claude for the Matrix integration work.** The refactors and test-coverage tickets are mechanical enough that a cheaper model handles them. Save the Claude quota for the harder unification issues (#667+) where architectural judgment matters.\n\nWhat's your thinking? Do you have an OpenAI key/budget, or do you want to go full sovereign with local models?",

  {
    "prompt": "So wait, the kimi code loop is using claude code instead of kimi code?",
    "chosen": "Yeah. That's exactly the problem.\n\nThe loop is called \"Kimi,\" the Gitea user is `kimi`, the branches are `kimi/issue-*` \u2014 but the engine under the hood is `claude --dangerously-skip-permissions`. Every tick of the \"Kimi loop\" is burning your Anthropic Claude quota.\n\nThe actual Kimi \u2014 Moonshot's model \u2014 has its own API, its own billing, and you've got deep research tokens for it already. The Kimi loop should be running on Kimi.\n\nSo the question becomes: can Moonshot's Kimi model do autonomous code agent work the way Claude Code does? That's what the OpenClaw epic (#112-#122) in the-matrix repo is partly about \u2014 standing up a sovereign agent runtime that isn't locked to Anthropic.\n\nThe options for making the Kimi loop actually run on Kimi:\n\n1. **Aider + Kimi API** \u2014 Aider supports custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints. Moonshot's API is OpenAI-compatible. Swap the loop from `claude` to `aider --model kimi` pointed at Moonshot's API.\n\n2. **OpenCode + Kimi API** \u2014 Same idea, different agent CLI.\n\n3. **OpenClaw on VPS + Kimi backend** \u2014 The full sovereign story. OpenClaw runs on the Hermes VPS with Kimi as the model, processes Gitea issues natively.\n\nThe irony is thick \u2014 we named the worker Kimi, gave it a Kimi identity, and then ran it on the competition's API. Time to fix that.\n\nWant me to research Moonshot's Kimi API capabilities for agentic coding tasks, or do you already know if it supports tool use and code generation at the level needed?",
