# MiniMax-M2.5 REAP-19 — MLX 8-bit
MLX 8-bit quantized version of [Akicou/MiniMax-M2-5-REAP-19](https://huggingface.co/Akicou/MiniMax-M2-5-REAP-19) for efficient local inference on Apple Silicon.
- **Quantization**: 8-bit (9.0 bits per weight, group size 64, affine mode)
- **Architecture**: MiniMax M2.5 MoE — 62 layers, 205 experts (REAP-pruned from 256), 8 active per token
- **Context**: 196K tokens
- **Size**: ~193 GB
- **Pruning**: 19% of experts removed via [REAP](https://github.com/CerebrasResearch/reap) (Router Expert Activation Pruning)
## Usage
```python
from mlx_lm import load, generate
model, tokenizer = load("shieldstackllc/MiniMax-M2-5-REAP-19-mlx-8bit")
response = generate(model, tokenizer, prompt="Hello!", verbose=True)
```
Or with [vMLX](https://vmlx.net) for native macOS inference.
## About
MiniMax-M2.5 is a large Mixture-of-Experts language model by MiniMax AI. This variant was pruned to 19% fewer experts by [Akicou](https://huggingface.co/Akicou) using REAP (Router Expert Activation Pruning), reducing model size and memory footprint while maintaining strong performance. MLX quantization by [vMLX](https://vmlx.net).
