SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Choosing and configuring the right provider for MiniMax H3 (Hailuo 3.0) video generation is confusing because each platform uses different model identifiers, durations, and resolutions. This Skill routes text-to-video, image-to-video, first/last-frame, and reference-conditioned video requests to the correct provider with the correct parameters.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-provider routing: Generate video through the MiniMax v2 API, fal.ai, Runway, ComfyUI Partner Nodes, or local open weights in ComfyUI, each with its correct model identifier.
  • Multiple generation modes: Supports text-to-video, image-to-video from a first frame, first/last-frame animation, and reference-to-video combining images, video, and audio.
  • Local offline generation: Run the open-weight Hailuo 3.0 stack locally in ComfyUI with the official workflow, diffusion model, Qwen3-VL text encoder, and VAEs.
  • Use Case: Provide a product photo as a first frame and a prompt describing camera motion, and receive a 4-15 second 2K clip with native audio via the MiniMax direct API.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to generate a 10-second MiniMax H3 video from a text prompt describing the subject, camera path, and lighting using the MiniMax direct route.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a MiniMax Hailuo 3.0 video from text?

Use the MiniMax direct route with model MiniMax-H3, or fal.ai, Runway, or ComfyUI Partner Nodes. Write a prompt covering subject, action, camera path, environment, lighting, and audio intent, and specify a concrete aspect ratio rather than adaptive.

What is the difference between MiniMax direct, fal.ai, and Runway for Hailuo 3.0?

Each provider uses a different model identifier: MiniMax-H3 for the first-party v2 API, hailuo-03 on fal.ai, and hailuo3 on Runway. The direct API outputs 2K at 4-15 seconds, while Runway supports 768P or 2K at 5-15 seconds.

Can I run Hailuo 3.0 locally without a hosted API?

Yes, the open-weight ComfyUI route runs fully offline once models are installed. Export the official workflow in API format and pass workflow_json or workflow_path plus output_node, with the diffusion model, Qwen3-VL text encoder, and video and audio VAEs.

How do I animate between a first and last frame with MiniMax H3?

Provide both the first and last frame images and describe the motion that should occur between them in the prompt. Keep the requested motion achievable within the 4-15 second clip duration.

Does MiniMax H3 support audio or video references as input?

Yes, reference-to-video accepts images, videos, and audio combined as conditioning inputs. Audio references require at least one visual reference alongside them.
