If you want to run Kimi K2.6 inside OpenClaw, the practical question is not whether Moonshot supports it. It is whether your specific OpenClaw install has caught up to expose the newer model cleanly.
What is already clear
OpenClaw's Moonshot provider docs already document the Moonshot path, and Moonshot's own K2.6 docs make clear that K2.6 lives on the same API family.
That means K2.6 is not a separate provider. It is a newer Moonshot model on the same integration surface OpenClaw already uses.
The practical read
K2.5 is still the safer documented default if your current catalog only exposes the older built-in model path. K2.6 is the better pick if you want stronger long-horizon coding and more persistent agent behavior, assuming your install can actually see it.
Bottom line
Think of this as a catalog and upgrade question, not a brand-new integration problem.
