NewDropstone Pro 1.622 Jun 2026

Pro moves to Moonshot Kimi K2.7 Code, built for tool use and everyday coding. Reported only on benchmarks Moonshot published (MCP Mark, Kimi Code Bench v2, third-party HumanEval+); no SWE-bench Pro score exists yet, so we do not claim one.

Refresh cadenceOngoing

Pro tracks the best open-weight model for tool-driven, day-to-day coding. The version number bumps; the CLI does not change.

Overview

Everything Pro ships with.

Dropstone Pro is the default for the bulk of real engineering: planning, multi-file edits, running tests, and tool-driven workflows where Heavy's budget is unnecessary. It runs Moonshot's Kimi K2.7 Code, a model built for tool use, with strong vendor and third-party scores (MCP Mark 81.1%, Kimi Code Bench v2 62%, third-party HumanEval+ around 94.2%). Moonshot did not publish a SWE-bench Pro number, so we do not place Pro on that chart; putting a tier on a benchmark it has no score for is exactly the mistake our 1.6 evaluation discipline corrects. Same approval-gated CLI, same US-hosted inference.

01

Full-stack feature work

Plan a feature, edit across the repo, run the test suite, fix the failures. One approval gate per tool call.

02

Tool-driven workflows

Kimi K2.7 Code is built for tool use (MCP Mark 81.1%). Call tools and APIs, edit, run, and iterate, all behind the approval gate.

03

Code review at scale

Run Pro across a PR diff to flag security, performance, and style issues, with the same OWASP coverage as Dropstone's safety analyzer.

Trust & safety

Security comes from the runtime, not the weights.

Read the full system card

The security boundary is the approval gate.

Every Dropstone request is treated as if the model could be adversarial. The CLI requires explicit user approval before any action that writes to disk, runs a shell command, or fetches a URL. No model output is ever auto-executed.

US-hosted inference. You control your data.

Pro runs on SOC 2-certified, US-based inference providers. Enterprise and commercial data is never stored and never trained on, regardless of any setting. Consumer sessions help improve the open model we run and can be turned off anytime in settings, as text only, never your raw images.

Honest about what we cannot prove.

Pro is built on Kimi K2.7 Code, an open-weight foundation model. Goldwasser et al. (2022) proved no party can prove a closed foundation model is free of embedded behaviors, including Anthropic for Claude and OpenAI for GPT. We say this out loud. The runtime is why model origin does not matter for your code.

Pick your tier

Three tiers. One CLI.

Same approval gate, same US-hosted inference, same zero-retention guarantee across all three. Pick the smallest model that meets the task.

FAQ

Questions you'd ask in a security review.

When should I use Dropstone Pro 1.6?
Dropstone Pro is the default for the bulk of real engineering: planning, multi-file edits, running tests, and tool-driven workflows where Heavy's budget is unnecessary. It runs Moonshot's Kimi K2.7 Code, a model built for tool use, with strong vendor and third-party scores (MCP Mark 81.1%, Kimi Code Bench v2 62%, third-party HumanEval+ around 94.2%). Moonshot did not publish a SWE-bench Pro number, so we do not place Pro on that chart; putting a tier on a benchmark it has no score for is exactly the mistake our 1.6 evaluation discipline corrects. Same approval-gated CLI, same US-hosted inference.
Is my code sent to a Chinese model provider?
No. Inference runs on SOC 2-certified, US-based providers. The model weights are open-source and loaded into those providers' US data centers. Your prompts never touch a foreign network.
What changes when Dropstone Pro 1.6 gets refreshed?
The version number and benchmarks. The CLI surface, the pricing structure, the approval-gate behavior, and the security model do not change. Existing scripts and CI pipelines continue working without modification.
Do you offer enterprise deployment?
Yes. Dropstone Enterprise extends the same audited-tier platform with VPC, on-premises, and air-gapped deployments, SSO, audit logs, and custom SLAs. Pricing is seat plus usage at API rates, on annual commitments. Read the Enterprise plan overview or contact enterprise@blankline.org.
