The installer now distinguishes Kimi CLI (Python) from Kimi Code (Node) at install time — running --kimi or --kimi-code prints a one-line description of each product, and if the selected variant doesn't match the detected ~/.kimi/config.toml vs ~/.kimi-code/config.toml, the installer warns with the correct --kimi-code / --kimi re-run command. Catches the "ran --kimi --global but actually on Kimi Code" mistake that produced inert YAMLs and empty agent-skills before the Phase 1 descriptor split. (#2513)
