Is Minimax the Best AI Model for OpenClaw?
We test whether Minimax is the best model to run inside OpenClaw by comparing it against Claude Opus and walking through what actually made Minimax work. We also share how we shifted our workflow from vague, high-level requests to tighter subtasks, plus a practical approach that leans on existing codebases instead of reinventing tools. Finally, we touch on a setup trick that lets you use Minimax’s coding plan with Claude Code-style tooling by swapping base URLs and keys.
