# If not authenticated:
mmx auth login --api-key <your-api-key>
# Check region:
mmx config show

Text Chat

# Basic
mmx text chat --message "What is MiniMax?"

# Streaming
mmx text chat --model MiniMax-M2.7-highspeed --message "Hello" --stream

# With system prompt
mmx text chat --system "You are a coding assistant" --message "Fizzbuzz in Go"

cat messages.json | mmx text chat --messages-file - --output json

Models

• MiniMax-M2.7 — standard
• MiniMax-M2.7-highspeed — faster response
• MiniMax-Text-01 — best for research/synthesis

Image Generation

# Simple
mmx image "A cat in a spacesuit"

# With options
mmx image generate --prompt "A cat" --n 3 --aspect-ratio 16:9

# Output to directory
mmx image generate --prompt "Logo" --out-dir ./out/

# Available aspect ratios: 1:1, 2:3, 3:2, 3:4, 4:3, 4:5, 5:4, 9:16, 16:9, 21:9

Video Generation

# Async (start and track)
mmx video generate --prompt "Ocean waves at sunset"

# Async with progress tracking
mmx video generate --prompt "A robot painting" --async

# Get task status
mmx video task get --task-id <task-id>

# Download completed video
mmx video download --file-id <file-id> --out video.mp4
mmx video generate --prompt "Ocean waves at sunset" --download sunset.mp4

Speech / TTS

# Basic synthesis
mmx speech synthesize --text "Hello!" --out hello.mp3

# Streaming playback (pipe to mpv)
mmx speech synthesize --text "Stream me" --stream | mpv -

# Voice selection + speed
mmx speech synthesize --text "Hi" --voice English_magnetic_voiced_man --speed 1.2

# List available voices
mmx voices

# From stdin
echo "Breaking news" | mmx speech synthesize --text-file - --out news.mp3

Music Generation

# With lyrics
mmx music generate --prompt "Upbeat pop" --lyrics "[verse] La da dee, sunny day" --out song.mp3

# Auto-generate lyrics from prompt
mmx music generate --prompt "Indie folk, melancholic, rainy night" --lyrics-optimizer --out song.mp3

# Instrumental (no vocals)
mmx music generate --prompt "Cinematic orchestral" --instrumental --out bgm.mp3
