Easiest way would be to download the 5.18.1 firmware file for your device and copy it to the root of your Kindles exposed storage. Eject your Kindle, enter Airplane mode, use KUAL to run OTARenamer to restore the OTA binaries and then the update file should be seen so you can update your Kindle.

After the update, run the Hotfix booklet to restore the jailbreak which will likely also need you to re-install KUAL and MRPI. Use OTARenamer to rename the OTA binaries, turn on WiFi and continue with life.
