KGS does not allow client development. The protocol is proprietary. KGS already has a fine, working web client, so there is no need for another one.

I thought KGS had their own proprietary protocol? GTP is the protocol for communicating with a Go engine, but not KGS as far as I know. KGS supports many features so if they used that protocol it would have to be significantly extended.

It is the protocol used to connect to KGS and it is well documented here: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gunnar/gtp/ A lot of work already done with it can freely be downloaded and viewed Good luck with programming the client!
