Feature Request: Official Linux Desktop Application for MiniMax Agent

Summary

I have created an unofficial community Linux port of MiniMax Agent v3.0.13, as there is currently no official Linux desktop application.

Community Repository: https://github.com/unn-Known1/minimax-agent-linux

What I've Built

  • A working .deb package for Debian-based distributions (Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Debian)
  • Google OAuth login support with custom protocol handler (minimax://)
  • Full desktop integration with icons and system tray
  • Built from the official Windows installer using Electron extraction
  • Tested on Linux Mint 21.x

Request

I would like to formally request official Linux support for MiniMax Agent:

  1. Official Linux builds - .deb, .rpm packages
  2. Official distribution channels - Via apt, snap, or flatpak
  3. License clarification - Guidance on whether community redistribution is acceptable
  4. Official API support - Ensuring the web APIs work reliably

Why This Matters

  • Growing demand from the Linux developer community
  • MiniMax Agent competes with other AI assistants that already support Linux
  • Could significantly expand the user base
  • Many developers prefer Linux desktop environments

What I Can Offer

  • Complete build scripts and documentation
  • Testing feedback from Linux Mint
  • Collaboration on official Linux support efforts
  • Help with packaging for various distributions

Thank you for creating MiniMax Agent - it's an excellent product that the Linux community would love to have officially supported!


This is a community-initiated request. I have no affiliation with MiniMax.
