In plain English

MiModex is a desktop application that wraps Xiaomi's MiMo AI platform into a graphical workspace. Instead of using the MiMo AI system through a command line, you get a desktop window with organized sections for different tasks: an AI coding assistant, web search, image and audio input, and text-to-speech audio generation. The app is built with Tauri, a framework for creating cross-platform desktop apps using web technologies on the front end and Rust on the back end. It ships with a bundled version of the MiMo Code Engine, so you do not need to install a separate command-line tool to use the AI coding features. You do need a Xiaomi MiMo API key, which you configure once in the app settings and is stored only on your own machine. The coding workspace connects to the built-in engine and lets you have a conversation with the model, select which AI model to use, control reasoning intensity, set permission modes for what the AI is allowed to do, and see tool output as it streams in. The web search feature runs a structured process: it asks the AI to plan search terms, fetches the actual source material, then passes it back to the AI to write a final answer grounded in what was retrieved. The multimodal workspace accepts images, audio clips, or video as input via URL or Base64-encoded data. The text-to-speech section generates audio from text using MiMo voice models and lets you preview different voice styles and presets. The app supports Mac (both Apple Silicon and Intel) and Windows. Building from source requires Node.js, npm, and the Rust toolchain. The project is released under the MIT License.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1
Set up MiModex on my Mac so I can use MiMo AI as a coding assistant, walk me through getting my API key configured and starting a coding conversation.
Prompt 2
Help me use MiModex's web search feature to research a technical topic and get an AI summary grounded in retrieved sources instead of guesses.
Prompt 3
I want to generate text-to-speech audio with MiMo voice models in MiModex, show me how to preview different voice presets and export the audio.
Prompt 4
Explain how to send an image to MiModex for multimodal analysis and what kinds of questions I can ask about it.
