MiniMax

MiniMax launched Mini App in its MiniMax Code desktop app: a long-running application with a frontend and a Node.js backend that installs as a plugin. Previously each agent task advanced inside its own conversation, so resuming one meant digging through chats for context, and an HTML dashboard showed only the data from the moment it was generated. A Mini App keeps data fetching, result saving and tool access on a live page that it and the agent can call, while the host manages ports, credentials and publishing.

MiniMax open-sourced MiniMax-M3.1-Flash, and vLLM supports it on day one on NVIDIA Blackwell, NVIDIA Rubin and AMD MI350-series GPUs. The model is quantization-aware trained for an NVFP4 KV cache and stores its routed MoE weights in NVFP4, shrinking the checkpoint from 451.5 GB to 250.1 GB and the KV cache from 61,440 to 34,560 bytes per token. On four NVIDIA B300 GPUs with DEP4 deployment and 256K-token sequences, M3.1 fits 76 concurrent sequences where M3 with an FP8 KV cache fits 28.

MiniMax's open-weight multimodal M3.1 Flash is now free on AI Gateway through Oct 22, and only when MiniMax serves the request. The model targets coding and agentic work with a 1M-token context window for long documents and multi-step agent sessions. Compared with earlier MiniMax models, MiniMax says it improves on complex agentic tasks, coding and cybersecurity, with its best coding results on application development, particularly frontend interactions, targeted bug fixes and component tests.
