No replies or slow responses

About restoring initial settings

Restoring initial settings resets Kimi Claw to its initial state, but:

  • Kept: Files in your workspace, long-term Memory, and scheduled tasks
  • Needs reconfiguration: Chatbots such as WeChat, Feishu, and WeCom need to be connected and configured again

AI issue diagnosis

If the issue still cannot be resolved, you can let AI diagnose it in either of the following ways:

Method 1: Send /status in the chat to view system status, or send /logs to view recent logs. This can help identify the specific cause.

Method 2: On the Kimi Claw page, click “Settings” → “AI issue diagnosis”, enter the issue you encountered, and include the logs and error messages so AI can diagnose and fix it.
