Generative AI

MiniMax just open-sourced MMX-CLI, a command-line tool built specifically for AI agents. Seven command groups: mmx text, mmx image, mmx video, mmx speech, mmx music, mmx vision, mmx search. What's different from other AI CLIs: → Agent-oriented output: stderr for UI, stdout for clean JSON/paths only. Parseable without regex hacks. → Semantic exit codes for error handling in pipelines. → Async video: --async or --no-wait flags prevent hangs during Hailuo-2.3 generation. → Subject-ref: --subject-ref maintains visual consistency across generated image batches.
