About
Official MiniMax Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables interaction with powerful Text to Speech and video/image generation APIs. This server allows MCP clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, OpenAI Agents and others to generate speech, clone voices, generate video, generate image and more.
- Convert text to audio using a given voice
- List all available voices
- Clone a voice from provided audio files
- Generate video from a text prompt
- Generate images from a text prompt
- Query video generation task results
- Generate music tracks from a prompt and lyrics
- Design custom voices from descriptive prompts with preview audio
Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
MINIMAX_MCP_BASE_PATHlocal-output-dir-path, such as /User/xxx/Desktop
MINIMAX_API_RESOURCE_MODEoptional, [url|local], url is default, audio/image/video are downloaded locally or provided in URL format
Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
Setting up with Cursor
Open Cursor's settings
Navigate to the MCP section
Click "Add new Global MCP server"
Copy and paste the configuration below based on your operating system

Official MiniMax Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables interaction with powerful Text to Speech and video/image generation APIs. This server allows MCP clients like <a href="https://www.anthropic.com/claude">Claude Desktop</a>, <a href="https://www.cursor.so">Cursor</a>, <a href="https://codeium.com/windsurf">Windsurf</a>, <a href="https://github.com/openai/openai-agents-python">OpenAI Agents</a> and others to generate speech, clone voices, generate video, generate image and more.
</p>
> 💡 Recommended: **[MiniMax CLI (mmx-cli)](https://github.com/MiniMax-AI/cli)** — our official command-line tool with the latest models and additional features including text, vision, and search. Works as an AI agent skill for Claude Code, Cursor, OpenClaw, etc.
## Documentation
- [中文文档](README-CN.md)
- [MiniMax-MCP-JS](https://github.com/MiniMax-AI/MiniMax-MCP-JS) - Official JavaScript implementation of MiniMax MCP
## Quickstart with MCP Client
1. Get your API key from [MiniMax](https://www.minimax.io/platform/user-center/basic-information/interface-key).
2. Install `uv` (Python package manager), install with `curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh` or see the `uv` [repo](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) for additional install methods.
3. **Important**: The API host and key vary by region and must match; otherwise, you'll encounter an `Invalid API key` error.
|Region| Global | Mainland |
|:--|:-----|:-----|
|MINIMAX_API_KEY| go get from [MiniMax Global](https://www.minimax.io/platform/user-center/basic-information/interface-key) | go get from [MiniMax](https://platform.minimaxi.com/user-center/basic-information/interface-key) |
|MINIMAX_API_HOST| https://api.minimax.io | https://api.minimaxi.com |
### Claude Desktop
Go to `Claude > Settings > Developer > Edit Config > claude_desktop_config.json` to include the following:
```
{
"mcpServers": {
"MiniMax": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"minimax-mcp",
"-y"
],
"env": {
"MINIMAX_API_KEY": "insert-your-api-key-here",
"MINIMAX_MCP_BASE_PATH": "local-output-dir-path, such as /User/xxx/Desktop",
"MINIMAX_API_HOST": "api host, https://api.minimax.io | https://api.minimaxi.com",
"MINIMAX_API_RESOURCE_MODE": "optional, [url|local], url is default, audio/image/video are downloaded locally or provided in URL format"
}
}
}
}
```
⚠️ Warning: The API key needs to match the host. If an error "API Error: invalid api key" occurs, please check your api host:
- Global Host:`https://api.minimax.io`
- Mainland Host:`https://api.minimaxi.com`
If you're using Windows, you will have to enable "Developer Mode" in Claude Desktop to use the MCP server. Click "Help" in the hamburger menu in the top left and select "Enable Developer Mode".
### Cursor
Go to `Cursor -> Preferences -> Cursor Settings -> MCP -> Add new global MCP Server` to add above config.
That's it. Your MCP client can now interact with MiniMax through these tools:
## Transport
We support two transport types: stdio and sse.
| stdio | SSE |
|:-----|:-----|
| Run locally | Can be deployed locally or in the cloud |
| Communication through `stdout` | Communication through `network` |
| Input: Supports processing `local files` or valid `URL` resources | Input: When deployed in the cloud, it is recommended to use `URL` for input |
## Available Tools
| tool | description |
|-|-|

### 2. spawn uvx ENOENT
Please confirm its absolute path by running this command in your terminal:
```sh
which uvx
```
Once you obtain the absolute path (e.g., /usr/local/bin/uvx), update your configuration to use that path (e.g., "command": "/usr/local/bin/uvx").
### 3. How to use `generate_video` in async-mode
Define completion rules before starting:

Alternatively, these rules can be configured in your IDE settings (e.g., Cursor):
