A task is the basic unit of collaboration in MiniMax Code. You can describe what you need directly, or attach a local project so the Agent can work with code context.
Create a Task
1
Start a new task
Click New Task in the sidebar, or type directly in the home composer.
2
Describe the outcome
Ask for the result you want: fix a bug, build a page, summarize files, research a topic, or prepare a report.
3
Add context
Drag in files, select a workspace, mention project files with @, or invoke skills with /.
4
Send and follow up
Once the Agent starts, you can add more requirements or respond to permission prompts.
Better Prompts
- Describe the desired outcome, not only the steps.
- For coding tasks, include stack, constraints, and validation criteria.
- For design tasks, attach references or screenshots.
- For research tasks, specify the output format and source requirements.
