The status page records three critical and several major incidents on the cloud agent between 22 July and 24 September 2026, and no rate limit figures or retry guidance were found in the reviewed documentation.\n\n**MiniMax Code.** An MIT-licensed terminal coding agent with a headless mode that returns versioned JSON, documented exit codes and an ACP server, and telemetry off by default. It's pre-1.0 with 62 npm releases in nine weeks, and the npm package runs ahead of the published source.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Devin\n\n1. Use a `cog_` service-user key with the Member role. Legacy `apk_` keys fail against v3 and the MCP server with 401 or 403\n2. Set `max_acu_limit` on every session you create. Usage is metered by the work done and has no published unit rate\n3. Session creation is not idempotent in v3. After a timeout, list sessions by tag before creating again\n4. Enterprise keys and personal access tokens must send `X-Org-Id` to the MCP server. Organisation-scoped keys resolve it automatically\n5. Create scheduled work as an automation. POST to the schedules endpoint returns 403 for migrated organisations since 24 September 2026\n\n### MiniMax Code\n\n1. Run `mcode exec --cwd \u003crepo\u003e --output-format json --timeout 10m --max-steps 50` and check both the exit code and the JSON `status`\n2. Keep `--permission full` and `off` for a container or throwaway workspace. The default `smart` fails when it would need a person\n3. Set `MCODE_PROVIDER_API_KEY` and add a provider for BYOK. M Plan models need a browser sign-in with `mcode login --region global`\n4. Set `MINIMAX_DATA_DIR` per CI runner. Keys and sessions live in `~/.minimax` by default\n5. Pin a version. npm published 62 releases in nine weeks and the public source trails it\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Devin or MiniMax Code?\n\nMiniMax Code scores 67.5 (B) on agent readiness against Devin's 55.7 (C), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. Devin leads on security \u0026 auth and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Are Devin and MiniMax Code open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for Devin. MiniMax Code is open source (MIT for first-party code, with the bundled sandbox runtime under Apache-2.0. The desktop app's source isn't published).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/devin-vs-minimax-code.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/devin-vs-minimax-code.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"devin\", \"b\": \"minimax-code\"}`.
