  Context window is 262,144 tokens per the pricing page. Image and video input are shown in the quickstart's multimodal tool example. tool_choice required is not supported. The quickstart gives only a 32K default for max_tokens, and the Chat API reference states an upper limit for Kimi K3 alone, so no maximum output is published.
