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:

  1. Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
  2. Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
  3. Configure the plugin with the settings below
    Plugin Name Minimax
    Command (node, npx, python, etc.)

    Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.

  4. Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches

From the repository

Obtain an API key from the MiniMax platform, then install the server via uvx minimax-mcp. Configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop or Cursor) by adding a JSON entry with your API key, output directory, host, and optional resource mode. The server can then be used through the provided tools.

Claude Desktop / Cursor

Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

Quickstart with MCP Client

1. Get your API key from MiniMax. 2. Install uv (Python package manager), install with curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh or see the uv repo for additional install methods.

Claude Desktop

Go to Claude > Settings > Developer > Edit Config > claude_desktop_config.json to include the following:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "MiniMax": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "minimax-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "MINIMAX_API_KEY": "<insert-your-api-key-here>",
        "MINIMAX_MCP_BASE_PATH": "<local-output-dir-path>",
        "MINIMAX_API_HOST": "https://api.minimaxi.chat",
        "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.minimaxi.chat (note the extra "i")
- Mainland Host:​https://api.minimax.chat

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:
