Tokens, turns and time describe resource use, not a dollar price.
This benchmark measured an earlier version of the skill.
A newer attempt on gemini-3.6-flash on 10/4/2026 did not produce a publishable comparison (not comparable). The snapshot above is the previously measured run.
One of 6 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
I want to specify the live MiniMax image model explicitly rather than relying on default settings. Which flag and value should be passed to the CLI helper?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Includes the --model image-01-live option. | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Generate images from a text prompt through the bundled MiniMax Image API helper.
Resolve the absolute directory containing this SKILL.md before running a command and refer to it as <skill-dir>. Keep output paths relative to the user's working directory unless the user requests another location.
MINIMAX_API_KEY before running the helper.Every option has a working default, so pass only what the request actually constrains:
python3 "<skill-dir>/minimax_image.py" \
--prompt "A quiet observatory beneath an aurora" \
--output "observatory.png"
The global endpoint is used by default. Select the China endpoint explicitly when needed:
python3 "<skill-dir>/minimax_image.py" \
--region china \
--prompt "A paper-cut landscape at sunrise" \
--output "landscape.png"
Use --model image-01-live when requested. Consult python3 "<skill-dir>/minimax_image.py" --help for optional fields and accepted values.
The helper downloads URL responses immediately because generated URLs expire. It also decodes base64 responses and creates output parent directories automatically. For multiple results, it adds a numeric suffix to the output filename.
