MiniMax Coding Plan

Run MiniMax-native web search and image understanding from OpenClaw.

What it does

Run MiniMax-native web searches or analyze JPEG, PNG, and WebP images from local paths or URLs through an OpenClaw wrapper. It supports prompts such as describing a screenshot or extracting visible text, and returns JSON. Authentication uses MINIMAX_API_KEY when available, otherwise an existing minimax-portal OAuth profile.

When to use it

  • MiniMax-native web search
  • Screenshot UI description
  • Visible text extraction from images
  • Image analysis when the main model route is unreliable

The skill document

MiniMax Coding Plan

Use the local wrapper:

bash {baseDir}/scripts/minimax-plan.sh  [args...]

Available tools:

  • web_search --query "..."
  • understand_image --prompt "..." --image-source /path/to/file-or-url

Recommended routing:

  • Use this skill when the user explicitly wants MiniMax-native search or MiniMax-native image understanding.
  • For ordinary web research, tavily-search is still the general-purpose default.
  • If the main minimax-portal text model path is not exposed as a reliable image route in the current OpenClaw setup, use understand_image.

Examples:

bash {baseDir}/scripts/minimax-plan.sh web_search --query "MiniMax M2.5 release note"
bash {baseDir}/scripts/minimax-plan.sh understand_image --prompt "Describe the UI in this screenshot" --image-source /tmp/screen.png
bash {baseDir}/scripts/minimax-plan.sh understand_image --prompt "Extract the visible text" --image-source https://example.com/image.png

Notes:

  • This wrapper first uses MINIMAX_API_KEY when present. Otherwise it looks for an existing minimax-portal OAuth profile in OPENCLAW_AUTH_PROFILES_JSON, OPENCLAW_AGENT_DIR, OPENCLAW_HOME, or ~/.openclaw.
  • Output is JSON. For image analysis, read content first. If base_resp.status_code != 0, explain the MiniMax API error plainly.
  • Supported image formats: JPEG, PNG, WebP.

Questions people ask

When should I use it instead of general web search?
Use it when the user explicitly requests MiniMax-native search. For ordinary web research, the document recommends tavily-search as the general-purpose default.
Can it analyze both local and remote images?
Yes. The image source can be a local file path or URL, and supported formats are JPEG, PNG, and WebP.
How does authentication and output handling work?
The wrapper prefers MINIMAX_API_KEY, then looks for an existing minimax-portal OAuth profile in configured OpenClaw locations. Results are JSON; for image analysis, read content first and explain any nonzero API status code plainly.
