Not responding or slow?

If Kimi Claw isn't replying or is unusually slow, there are several possible causes. Follow the troubleshooting path below.

Common causes

CauseDescription
Bridge disconnectThe connection between Kimi Claw and the server has dropped; the gateway needs a restart
Resource busyServer load is high; responses may be delayed
Instance offlineThe Kimi Claw instance has gone offline and needs to be repaired

How to fix?

Work through these steps in order until the issue is resolved:

  1. Send another message — Sometimes it's just a momentary delay; a follow-up message can trigger a response
  2. Refresh the page — Close and reopen the Kimi Claw conversation
  3. Restart the gateway — Go to Settings and click Restart Kimi Claw. Wait for it to come back online
  4. Auto-repair — In Settings, click Repair Kimi Claw. The system will detect and fix configuration issues automatically
  5. Restore initial settings — If nothing else works, select Restore Initial Settings in Settings

About restoring initial settings

This resets Kimi Claw to its factory state, but:

  • Preserved: Workspace files and long-term Memory
  • Needs reconfiguration: Chat platform connections (Telegram, etc.) must be set up again
