- Documented by MiniMaxUse MiniMax in Claude CodeMiniMax documents a dedicated Claude Code setup: point Claude Code at MiniMax's Anthropic-compatible endpoint (https://api.minimax.io/anthropic) via ~/.claude/settings.json env entries, or use MiniMax's one-click mmx-cli setup wizard.api.minimax.io5 steps
- Documented by ClineUse MiniMax in ClineCline ships a native MiniMax provider: pick 'MiniMax' in the API Provider dropdown, paste a MiniMax API key, and choose a model.api.minimax.io5 steps
- Documented by MiniMaxUse MiniMax in Codex CLIMiniMax documents a Codex setup that adds a custom model provider in ~/.codex/config.toml pointing at https://api.minimax.io/v1 with the Responses wire API, or a one-click mmx-cli wizard that writes the same config.api.minimax.io4 steps
- Documented by ContinueUse MiniMax in ContinueContinue has a native `minimax` provider (OpenAI-compatible, default apiBase https://api.minimax.io/v1/); add a model entry with provider: minimax in config.yaml.api.minimax.io3 steps
- Documented by MiniMaxUse MiniMax in CursorMiniMax documents Cursor setup by overriding Cursor's OpenAI base URL to https://api.minimax.io/v1, using the MiniMax key as the OpenAI API key, and adding MiniMax-M3.1-Flash-Preview as a custom model.api.minimax.io6 steps
- From MiniMax and GitHub Copilot docsUse MiniMax in GitHub CopilotVS Code's Copilot Chat 'Custom Endpoint' BYOK provider (Chat Completions API type) combined with MiniMax's documented Chat Completions endpoint https://api.minimax.io/v1/chat/completions and model ids.api.minimax.io4 steps
