The Trillion-Parameter Dilemma: MiMo-V2.5-Pro went open-source (1.02T params). Is self-hosting worth it when the API costs $70 for 387M tokens?

Xiaomi open-sourced MiMo-V2.5-Pro. 1.02 trillion parameters, 42B active (MoE), 1M context, MIT license. On paper, this is exciting. In practice, I'm stuck on the math. What I've been doing with it I've been running V2.5-Pro via the API through Claude Code for autonomous coding sessions, not one-shot prompts, but extended multi-hour runs where the model picks its own tasks, debugs its own code, and keeps going across sessions using file-based memory.
