minimax-pdf | Generate, fill, and reformat PDF documents with a token-based design system. CREATE polished PDFs from scratch (15 cover styles), FILL existing form fields, or REFORMAT documents into a new design. Print-ready output with typography and color derived from document type. | Official |
pptx-generator | Generate, edit, and read PowerPoint presentations. Create from scratch with PptxGenJS (cover, TOC, content, section divider, summary slides), edit existing PPTX via XML workflows, or extract text with markitdown. | Official |
minimax-xlsx | Open, create, read, analyze, edit, or validate Excel/spreadsheet files (.xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, .tsv). Covers creating new xlsx from scratch via XML templates, reading and analyzing with pandas, editing existing files with zero format loss, formula recalculation, validation, and professional financial formatting. | Official |
minimax-docx | Professional DOCX document creation, editing, and formatting using OpenXML SDK (.NET). Three pipelines: create new documents from scratch, fill/edit content in existing documents, or apply template formatting with XSD validation gate-check. | Official |
vision-analysis | Analyze, describe, and extract information from images using vision AI models. Supports describe, OCR, UI mockup review, chart data extraction, and object detection. Powered by MiniMax VL API with OpenAI GPT-4V fallback. | Community |
minimax-multimodal-toolkit | Generate voice, music, video, and image content via MiniMax APIs — the unified entry for MiniMax multimodal use cases. Covers TTS (text-to-speech, voice cloning, voice design, multi-segment), music (songs, instrumentals), video (text-to-video, image-to-video, start-end frame, subject reference, templates, long-form multi-scene), image (text-to-image, image-to-image with character reference), and media processing (convert, concat, trim, extract) via FFmpeg. | Official |
minimax-music-gen | Generate vocal songs, instrumentals, and covers using MiniMax Music API. Two modes: Basic (one-liner in, song out) and Advanced Control (edit lyrics, refine prompt, plan structure). Supports lyrics generation, style vocabulary, streaming playback, and iterative feedback. | Official |
buddy-sings | Let your Claude Code pet (/buddy) sing a personalized song. Interprets the pet's name and personality into a unique cached vocal identity, auto-gathers context (conversation, memory, git history) for themed lyrics, and generates music via minimax-music-gen. | Official |
minimax-music-playlist | Generate personalized playlists by analyzing your music taste. Builds a taste profile (genre, mood, language, vocal preferences), plans a themed tracklist, generates songs with album cover art, and refines the profile from feedback. | Official |
