Its smallest build needs about 167 GB, more than a 128 GB machine, and no local runtime library packages it. The main risks are no upkeep since July, no hosted fallback shown today, no safety results, and repository code on the SGLang route.\n\n**MiniMax-M2.5.** MiniMax-M2.5 is a 230B mixture-of-experts model for coding and agent work, with parallel tool calls, a 196K context and parsers in vLLM and SGLang. It needs a 4-GPU server for FP8 or about 155 GB for a 4-bit build. The main risk is a licence replaced after release with a Prohibited Uses Policy while the card still says modified MIT.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Laguna M.1\n\n1. Run the NVFP4 build on Blackwell GPUs with `vllm serve poolside/Laguna-M.1-NVFP4 --tensor-parallel-size 2 --tool-call-parser poolside_v1 --reasoning-parser poolside_v1 --enable-auto-tool-choice`, on vLLM 0.21.0 or later\n2. Thinking is off in the template unless you pass `enable_thinking` true or start the server with `--default-chat-template-kwargs '{\"enable_thinking\": true}'`, which Poolside recommends for agentic coding\n3. Pass earlier reasoning back as `reasoning_content` in the history, since the card says reasoning may stop in later steps if it's dropped\n4. Sampling per the card is temperature 1.0 and top_k 20\n5. The FP8 build's Docker image and serve.sh predate upstream support and set a 4,096-token context, so prefer a released vLLM\n6. It doesn't fit our 128 GB reference machine at any published precision\n7. Validate JSON output yourself or use the runtime's guided decoding, since structured output isn't documented\n\n### MiniMax-M2.5\n\n1. Start it with vLLM on 4 GPUs of 96 GB, SAFETENSORS_FAST_GPU=1 vllm serve MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5 --trust-remote-code --tensor-parallel-size 4 --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser minimax_m2 --reasoning-parser minimax_m2_append_think\n2. In SGLang use --tool-call-parser minimax-m2 and --reasoning-parser minimax-append-think, with --trust-remote-code\n3. MiniMax's guides budget 220 GB for the weights and 240 GB per 1M tokens of KV cache\n4. On a single large-memory machine, LM Studio's catalogue entry minimax/minimax-m2.5 lists a Q4_K_M GGUF of 138 GB and an MLX 4-bit of 129 GB (Mac only), and LM Studio states 121 GB minimum memory\n5. Sample with temperature 1.0, top_p 0.95 and top_k 40, as the card recommends\n6. Budget output tokens for thinking on every turn, since the template always opens a think block\n7. Read LICENSE-MODEL, not the card's licence link, before shipping, and keep the required Notice text in every copy\n8. Without the hardware, call it through Novita or Featherless AI; MiniMax's own API retires M2.5 on 18 November 2026\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Laguna M.1 or MiniMax-M2.5?\n\nMiniMax-M2.5 scores 57.5 (C) on agent readiness against Laguna M.1's 55.5 (C), and leads in 1 of 5 scored categories.
