According to reports, the new giant in the large model field, MiniMax, has released two major updates for the desktop version of MiniMax Agent: the Pocket feature (Beta version) is now officially available, and the highly anticipated Computer Use capability has been unlocked.

Core Black Tech: Pocket – "Carry It Anywhere" Across Software

The core highlight of this update is the Pocket feature, which breaks down the barriers between AI and traditional office software:

  • Integration with Mainstream IMs: It supports deep integration with popular communication apps like Feishu and WeChat, allowing users to summon the Agent directly within familiar chat interfaces.

  • Portable Intelligent Agent: Through Pocket, the Agent is no longer limited to the desktop. It can now be "carried in your pocket," synchronizing and moving across different mobile devices and office collaboration software.

Interactive Revolution: Computer Use Enables the Agent to "Use a Computer"

Alongside Pocket, the Computer Use feature has also been launched, marking a new stage in the development of MiniMax Agent:

  • Human-like Operations: The Agent can now recognize and operate computer software like a human, from clicking icons to handling tasks across applications, transitioning from "verbal commands" to "actual work."

  • Reimagining Workflows: Combined with the previously launched AI-native Workspace, the Agent can automate end-to-end tasks ranging from file organization to complex office processes.

Strategic Advancement: Competing at the Top and Accelerating Ecosystem Building

MiniMax has recently made very frequent moves in the Agent arena, revealing its ambition to build a domestic AI ecosystem foundation:

  1. Model Benchmarking: The MiniMax M2.5 flagship programming model launched in February this year clearly benchmarks against Claude Opus 4.6, providing stronger underlying logic for Agents.

  2. Tool Open Source: The recently released MMX-CLI command-line tool further lowers the barrier for developers to build personalized Agents.

  3. Business Loop Closure: With the launch of the Remix Marketplace trading platform, MiniMax is building a complete AI intelligent agent industry chain, from development, distribution, to transactions.

Industry Perspective: Agents Become the New "Personal Entry Point"

The update direction of MiniMax reveals the trend of the second half of the AI competition in 2026: it's no longer just about parameter scale, but about scenario penetration. When an Agent can seamlessly integrate with WeChat and Feishu and take over computer operations, it transforms from a "chatbot" into a tangible, real-world "digital employee."

Conclusion: Making AI Accessible

When the MiniMax Agent can live in your Feishu and WeChat, the value of AI truly descends from the computing center to your fingertips. This update is not just about adding features—it's a bold preview of the future of human-machine collaboration.
