Moonshot AI makes Kimi Code ask before trusting project folders

Moonshot AI's October 21 update to Kimi Code Desktop adds a trust prompt for newly opened folders, and declining the prompt blocks messages from being sent in that workspace, according to the product's release notes. The same update asks users switching models mid-session to start a new session, compact the context and continue, or continue directly, and adds a way to reload sessions after configuration changes. The changes give developers more control over what a coding agent can do in a local project and what happens to an active session.
