Configure ModelScope MCP Server in Playground

Through an official partnership between the Kimi API Platform and ModelScope, you can sync all hosted MCP service configurations under your ModelScope account into Kimi Playground with a single API token. Follow this page when you want models in Playground to call MCP tools.

Sync ModelScope-Hosted MCP Services

Log in to Kimi Playground (https://platform.kimi.ai/playground) and make sure you can have basic conversations with the Kimi K2 model. MCP services are added in “MCP Server Settings”, where ModelScope is selected as the default MCP service provider. If you haven’t used the ModelScope MCP marketplace before, first refer to the ModelScope official documentation to select and host your MCP services; you can also discover numerous MCP servers in the ModelScope community.
