About
From README.md in 0.1.2.
Use the MiniMax Code app already signed in on your computer to search the web, create images, video, and speech, search images, transcribe audio, and understand audio and video. No API key is needed.
Install
dsh plugin --profile web add @klarkxy/dsh-minimax-code
Start and sign in to the official MiniMax Code desktop app, then open Plugins → MiniMax Code. Tool paths are found automatically; if both China and global versions are installed, choose one. Keep MiniMax Code running while you use the media tools.

Limits
- Video requires choosing a model. H3 models can add sound and use account credits; Hailuo 2.3 is a cheaper silent option. Actual costs follow your MiniMax account.
- Check video progress with
minimax_video_statusinstead of submitting again. - Inputs must be workspace files or session attachments. Results are saved under
.dsh-minimax-code/, so a read-only workspace cannot create media. - Cancelling stops the local process but may not stop generation on MiniMax's side.
- Not included: image understanding, X search, or music.
