Use the Mobile bookmarks folder as the root.
If I recall: Chromium does not allow you to create items in the toplevel root folder (/), that space is reserved for special folders like Mobile bookmarks, Bookmarks bar, Other bookmarks. Any attempts by floccus to create items inside the root folder (whether in Kiwi or on any other Chromium browser) will fail. The intention is that Google Sync or some other native browser process will create and manage these folders, so it's by design that extensions are not able to write to it.
Here is what the folders look like with Google Sync on desktop (notice the different presentation for Mobile bookmarks):

There is a similar experience on Android, though I was not able to find a screenshot of it.
