Kimi Code is preparing to release Kimi K3.1, as a model appears mid-session

A model-switch warning inside Moonshot AI's Kimi Code now names Kimi K3.1, according to a screenshot posted October 21st by Lumina (@LuminaBench).

• The post says the warning appears when users change models mid-session, which suggests the model is being integrated into a developer workflow.
• The screenshot does not show a launch date, and it is a prelaunch clue rather than a product announcement.
• No release date, access terms, price or performance details are established by the warning.
