How to Connect MiniMax-M2.7 to Cursor

MiniMax-M2.7 is a new Chinese frontier model from MiniMax. According to some benchmarks, it has almost caught up with Opus-4.6. However, based on my tests over the past few days, I've concluded that it doesn't even measure up to Sonnet-4. If you use it for simple tasks, everything is fine. But if you have a monorepo project structure with packages and apps, you have to run a lot of iterations to complete tasks. Even if the rules and skills specify the project structure — where types, helpers, and ESLint configurations are located — it still doesn't follow that structure. And it's very slow compared to Sonnet, and it's about 20 times slower than GPT-5.4. I asked the agent with MiniMax to copy the structure from another monorepo repository, and it took me 4 hours of back-and-forth with the agent to clarify the details so that it would finally complete the task. With Sonnet-4.6, this takes me about 15–30 minutes. Benchmarks and real-world performance differ greatly. If a model is estimate
