How to use MiniMax in Factory
Blog post from Factory
Factory natively hosts and serves MiniMax open-weight language models through its Droid Core offering, allowing users to run them without supplying inference infrastructure or API keys. Available variants include MiniMax M3, M2.7, and M2.5, which can be selected in interactive Droid sessions through the model menu or specified in headless commands, CI workflows, and Missions using their model IDs. M3 and M2.7 use High reasoning, while M2.5 supports Low, Medium, and High levels. All listed MiniMax models have a 0.12x credit multiplier, currently the lowest in Factory’s catalog, making them suited to high-volume, cost-sensitive tasks such as scoped code changes, cleanup, experimentation, and automated workloads. Users can assign MiniMax to worker agents while reserving stronger models for validation, switch models by task, or use Factory Router to choose models automatically.
