FAQ
1. invalid api key
Please ensure your API key and API host are regionally aligned
| Region | Global | Mainland |
|---|---|---|
| MINIMAX_API_KEY | go get from MiniMax Global | go get from MiniMax |
| MINIMAX_API_HOST | https://api.minimax.io | https://api.minimaxi.com |
2. spawn uvx ENOENT
Please confirm its absolute path by running this command in your terminal:
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: <img src="https://public-cdn-video-data-algeng.oss-cn-wulanchabu.aliyuncs.com/cursor_rule2.png?x-oss-process=image/resize,p_50/format,webp" style="display: inline-block; vertical-align: middle;"/> Alternatively, these rules can be configured in your IDE settings (e.g., Cursor): <img src="https://public-cdn-video-data-algeng.oss-cn-wulanchabu.aliyuncs.com/cursor_video_rule.png?x-oss-process=image/resize,p_50/format,webp" style="display: inline-block; vertical-align: middle;"/>
