We introduce the MiniMax-M2 series, a family of Mixture-of-Experts language models built around the principle that mini activations can unleash maximum real-world intelligence. The flagship M2 contains 229.9B total parameters with only 9.8B activated per token. Designed end-to-end for agentic deployment, the M2 series rests on three components: (i) agent-driven data pipelines producing large-scale, verifiable trajectories across agentic coding and agentic cowork, each grounded in an executable workspace and an artifact-aligned reward; (ii) Forge, a scalable agent-native RL system that adapts to long-horizon agent trajectories, paired with windowed-FIFO scheduling, prefix-tree merging, inference optimization, and a clean training-inference-agent decoupling that supports both white-box and black-box agents; (iii) the latest M2.7 checkpoint takes an early step toward self-evolution -- autonomously debugging training runs and modifying its own scaffold. Across M2 through M2.7, this combination translates a mini-activation footprint into frontier-tier performance on agentic coding, deep search, office-task, and reasoning benchmarks.

LoRA enables efficient customization of LLMs and is widely used in multi-tenant and multi-task serving. However, emerging model architectures such as MoE significantly increase LoRA memory cost, making existing coupled LoRA serving designs poorly scalable and prone to tail-latency inflation. We present InfiniLoRA, a disaggregated LoRA serving system that decouples LoRA execution from base-model inference. InfiniLoRA introduces a shared LoRA Server with parallelism-aware execution, SLO-driven provisioning, and critical-path optimizations, including GPU-initiated communication and hardware-specialized LoRA kernels. Experiments show that InfiniLoRA can achieve an average $3.05\times$ increase in serviceable request rate under strict latency SLOs, and improve the percentage of LoRA adapters satisfying the SLO requirement by 54.0\%.
