# Kilo AI Provider

> Use Kilo AI through CCS as a CLIProxy device-code provider

# Kilo AI Provider

CCS supports **Kilo AI** as a CLIProxy provider.

## Quick Start

```bash theme={null}
ccs kilo --auth
ccs kilo --accounts
ccs kilo --config
ccs kilo "explain this error"
```

## Authentication Model

Kilo uses a **device-code flow**:

* no local callback port is required
* the auth flow is device-code based rather than browser callback based
* CCS currently treats token refresh as unsupported, so re-run `ccs kilo --auth`
  if upstream auth expires

## Backend Requirement

Kilo is a **plus-only** provider.

```yaml theme={null}
cliproxy:
  backend: plus
```

## Config And Storage

| Path                        | Purpose                                              |
| --------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| `~/.ccs/cliproxy/auth/`     | shared OAuth token directory                         |
| `~/.ccs/kilo.settings.json` | provider settings when a local settings file is used |
