minimax/minimax-01 behavioral LLM fingerprint
This page breaks down the exact reference that VerifyLLMAPI uses for minimax/minimax-01: 120 normalized answers across eight low-entropy probes, plus its nearest enrolled models by mean Jensen–Shannon divergence.
Fingerprint summary

The most concentrated cell was color-random|zh: 橙色 held 46.7% of its answers and entropy measured 2.146 bits. The broadest cell was word-random|en at 3.640 bits.
Against the closest enrolled model, word-random|en contributed the largest cell distance at JSD 0.843668. This is a descriptive comparison, not proof that either API route serves a named checkpoint.
Completeness: the author dataset allows up to 15 valid answers per selected cell in reference half A. This model contains 120/120 across the eight cells. We show the actual denominator for every share.
The eight test requests
The research pipeline sent each user prompt with a one-answer system constraint, temperature 1, a 16-token output cap, and reasoning disabled. VerifyLLMAPI uses the same prompt text and normalization target.

Three nearest enrolled references
We compute base-2 JSD for each of the eight categorical distributions, then average the eight distances. A lower value means more similar answer frequencies within this product reference. It does not identify an unknown route by itself.

How many live requests does verification use?
| Profile | Cells × samples | Fresh model requests | Same-data EER |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quick, default complete check | 4 × 5 | 20 | 11.8% |
| Standard | 8 × 5 | 40 | 8.1% |
| Paper budget | 8 × 15 | 120 | 6.7% |
The current-Agent workflow starts with quick. Each answer comes from a fresh Codex or Claude Code process that reuses host-managed login. These requests can consume host allowance or provider balance.
What this fingerprint can and cannot show
- The reference records behavior observed through OpenRouter in the author dataset. Provider wrappers, model updates, decoding, and date can move a distribution.
- The author collection set temperature 1 and disabled reasoning. Current-Agent mode labels sampling as a host default because supported Agent CLIs expose no temperature flag.
- The eight high-gap cells and product thresholds use the same public cohort. Their EER values are calibration results, not an independent production accuracy claim.
- A nearest reference is a similarity result. VerifyLLMAPI returns INCONCLUSIVE when the claimed route lacks an enrolled fingerprint.
