1. From a file reply to a page you can see
On September 23, 2026, Kimi Code Desktop version 1.0.3 added a direct route to the result: click a local HTML file in the conversation to open it as a webpage in the built-in browser on the right.
Kimi Code Desktop is a desktop AI tool that can read and change a local project through conversation. After it creates a page, you can see how its headings, images and buttons are arranged and request changes. The result is still a local preview; this does not automatically make it a website that other people can visit.
2. Judge whether the page communicates clearly
You can evaluate a result before understanding its code
Imagine creating a one-page announcement for a book club. You care whether the time, location and joining instructions are easy to find, whether a long heading becomes crowded, and whether the text remains readable at phone width. Looking at the page turns “it does not look good” into actionable feedback such as “put the time below the heading” or “this image covers the location.”
Keeping generation and viewing in one conversation mainly reduces the work of finding files, switching tools and describing positions. You still need to check the event details. Real registration, payment and public hosting require additional features and checks. A page that opens and a service that accepts registrations are different deliverables.
3. Try a small local event page
These steps follow the current help for the macOS or Windows desktop app. Install it and sign in using the official getting-started guide. Official models require the relevant Kimi membership; third-party models can also be configured, with their own accounts and charges. Prepare an empty folder specifically for this exercise.
- Choose the working folder. Start a new session, click the folder name above the composer, choose your folder and confirm that the displayed location is correct.
- Set confirmation behavior before sending. Use the permission control at the lower left of the composer to select Always Ask, so proposed operations need your confirmation. To discuss the layout first, optionally select Plan from the “+” menu.
- Give it a small, explicit task. For example: “Create a local HTML announcement titled Weekend Book Club. The time is Saturday at 14:00 and the location is the shared space on floor three. Display information only. Do not collect registrations or send anything over the network.” This is a practice example; substitute your own accurate details.
- Review proposed actions. Follow the execution and review guide: inspect files and commands on approval cards, then approve the operations you need after checking their scope.
- Open the actual page. Click the HTML file in the reply to see it in the browser on the right. If the project needs a local server, ask the agent to start it and give you its actual address, then open that address. One fixed port is not the address of every project.
- Point to a problem, then check again. First verify the time, location and wording yourself. The browser guide explains how to right-click and choose Annotate element, mark the element, describe the current and desired result, and click Add to Composer before sending. Use More → Show device toolbar at the browser’s upper right to inspect a narrow viewport. After the revision, reopen the relevant area and check that the original problem is gone.
A useful completion standard is modest: correct facts, easy-to-find essentials and no obstruction at narrow widths. Handle hosting, a reachable address and real functionality separately when you want to share the result. A local screenshot does not prove that a site is live.
