Minimax Usage

Check MiniMax coding plan usage/credits remaining. Requires MINIMAX_API_KEY environment variable.

Check your MiniMax coding plan credits remaining.

Usage

bash

# Check remaining credits
bash /home/claw/.openclaw/workspace/skills/minimax-usage/scripts/minimax-usage.sh

# Only alert when remaining drops below 20%
bash /home/claw/.openclaw/workspace/skills/minimax-usage/scripts/minimax-usage.sh --threshold 20

Options

Flag	Description
--threshold <percent>	Only output when remaining % is below this value. If omitted, always outputs.

Output

Returns a Discord-formatted message:

• Title with model name (warning icon when below threshold)
• Remaining requests out of total with percentage
• Reset time in Eastern Time
• Time left in H:MM:SS

Example: Below threshold alert

When remaining usage falls below the configured threshold:

text

⚠️ MiniMax Usage Alert — MiniMax-M1
Remaining: 42 of 500 requests (8.4%)
Resets: Feb 17, 2026 12:00 AM ET
Time left: 7:23:15

When above the threshold, the command produces no output and exits with code 0.

Cron Job

The --threshold flag makes this ideal for a cron job that runs periodically and only sends an alert when available credits drop below a percentage:

bash

# Check every 30 minutes, alert if below 20%
# Requires MINIMAX_API_KEY to be set in the cron environment
*/30 * * * * bash /home/claw/.openclaw/workspace/skills/minimax-usage/scripts/minimax-usage.sh --threshold 20 | discord-webhook

No output is produced when usage is above the threshold, so downstream commands (e.g. a webhook) are only triggered when credits are running low.
