Error message

kimi: failed to create token request: %w

What it means

http.NewRequestWithContext failed while building the token-exchange POST to https://auth.kimi.com/api/oauth/token. In practice this only happens for a malformed URL or an invalid method/nil body — all inputs here are hardcoded constants, so a failure is essentially a programming or environment corruption problem, not a network one.

Solutions

1. If you forked/patched the file, verify kimiTokenURL is a valid absolute URL (https://auth.kimi.com/api/oauth/token)
2. Otherwise treat as a bug: report it — the stock binary should never hit this path

// Only relevant for forks: assert the constant parses
if _, err := url.Parse(kimiTokenURL); err != nil {
    return nil, fmt.Errorf("bad kimiTokenURL: %w", err)
}

When it happens

Trigger: Passing a nil context (NewRequestWithContext panics on nil ctx instead — so realistically only URL parse failure), or the constants kimiTokenURL/method somehow altered. Not reachable in a correctly built binary.

Common situations: Custom forks that change kimiTokenURL to an invalid value (typo, missing scheme), unit tests stubbing the constructor incorrectly.
