By popular demand, we expanded beyond Claude-only chrome. Power Claude’s Model tabs now isolate Claude, Grok, Codex, Gemini, and Kimi — auto-discover what you install, pin what you use, hide the noise. One control plane for agentic fleets, not five dashboards.
TL;DR: Operators asked for every agentic host they already run. Model tabs ship for Claude · Grok · Codex · Gemini · Kimi. Public money/trial chrome stays honest on Claude SKU; multi-host unlocks with lab or host products. Auto-discover + pin/hide so unused models never clutter the strip.
Why “Claude-only forever” was the wrong product shape
Power Claude earned its name on Claude Code: recovery, seats you own, Token Saver, unattended loops. That work is still the money story (five Pro vs Max, dual-trial honesty).
But fleets are not monotheistic. Teams already run Grok CLI, Codex, Gemini, and now Kimi K3 for frontend arenas. A product that only paints Claude while pretending multi-model is marketing debt — and operators told us so.
What “expanded to all models” means (honestly)
| Surface | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Model tabs | Pure Claude / Grok / Codex / Gemini / Kimi + Mixtures / All |
| Auto-discover | Seats, KIMI_API_KEY / MOONSHOT_API_KEY, home installs, session tokens |
| Pin / hide | ~/.power-claude/state/ui/model-tab-visibility.json — hide beats discovery |
| Universal lists | Same Health · Usage · Source · Actions chrome per host |
| Public SKU | Money/trial homepage still Claude-led (savings dual-trial); multi-host chrome is not a lie about free Claude Marketplace unlocks |
Kimi K3 and Fable-class Claude in one week
Public 2026 arena reports put Kimi K3 at the top of community frontend Code Arena leaderboards ahead of Claude Fable 5 in many head-to-heads, while Fable remains strong on hard SWE and review harnesses. Use both:
- Deep refactors → Claude / Fable pure tab, multi-seat rotation
- Frontend visual loops → discover/pin Kimi
- Anthropic AUTH-DEAD → Mixtures + gateway brains

# [host:grok-cli:0.2.114][brain:xai:grok-4.5][via:direct:xai][hurc:v0.12.1676] Install latest Power Claude (dev channel or Marketplace)
# Model → Claude is default
export KIMI_API_KEY="…" # or MOONSHOT_API_KEY
# [host:grok-cli:0.2.114][brain:xai:grok-4.5][via:direct:xai][hurc:v0.12.1676] Kimi tab appears when discovered; hide via prefs if you only want Claude
Reload VS Code after install. Home · View 2.0 Model strip is the switcher — not nested Profiles chips.

FAQ
Is Power Claude still about Claude savings?
Yes. Dual-trial money math and seats you own remain primary. Multi-model is the control plane expansion.
Do I see every host all the time?
No. Defaults: Claude always; others on discover or pin; Mixtures/All manual.
Is Kimi free on every install?
Public free Claude SKU does not invent paid host unlocks. Lab / host products / Universal unlock multi-host chrome.
What about Power Agent?
Universal / multi-host SKU branding is Power Agent where product_id is agnostic — same engine family, not a second product pile.
