BC minimax-studio
Create voice, music, and video with MiniMax AI models. Unified skill for TTS voice synthesis (text-to-speech, voice cloning, voice design, multi-segment generation), music generation (songs, instrumentals), video creation (text-to-video, image-to-video, start-end frame, subject reference, templates, long-form multi-scene), and media processing (audio/video format conversion, concatenation, trimming, extraction). Use when user wants to generate speech audio, create songs or instrumental tracks, produce AI videos, clone or design voices, convert media formats, merge/split audio or video files, or work with MiniMax APIs.
Create voice, music, and video with MiniMax AI models.
As a process C 59/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: when it triggers, consistency, progress reporting
What is at stake
Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.
Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.
The instructions or scripts send data out: environment variables, keys, file contents, chat history. You may never notice, because the agent performs the upload as "part of the task".
If the upload is not needed for the task, remove it: catalogs flag such skills and delist them. If it is needed, name the destination explicitly, say what leaves the machine, and give the user a switch.
How to improve
- The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Against the Agent Skills spec
- warning
body-longSKILL.md body ≈ 5719 tokens (recommended < 5000); move details to references/ - note
edit-residuethe text marks something as outdated (lines 14): check that old rules are not kept next to new ones — the full check reads the text for contradictions
Process rating: all ten parameters 59/100
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (minimax-studio) differs from the folder (minimaxstudio)
- 55Failures and branches. 1 branches
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 5719 tokens
- 85Steps. 52 steps, 3 vague phrases
- 100Running it twice. Mutating operations check current state
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
