MiniMax H3 Image MLX · shared components

Shared VAE, PDD heads, native support tensors, transformer configuration and evaluated six-step modulation tables for the community MLX port by Devin Lai. Powered by MiniMax-H3-Image.

The main runtime downloads these components once and reuses them across BF16, lossless packed BF16, Q8 and Q4. It omits the redundant native support file for the original BF16 variant. No other variant weights are stored here. The separate native text encoder is fetched from its pinned official MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-H3 repository and retains its own license.

Use h3-mlx download --variant packed12 --model-dir models/packed12 after installation. Frozen modulation tables retain the six original timesteps and the editing anchor; the loader validates MLX 0.32.4, strict FP32 settings and the original schedule. Format and modifications.

Shared model files: 3.86 GiB. Download them once and reuse them across variants. The BF16 downloader skips the redundant native-support copy; the separate upstream text encoder is roughly 62 GiB. These are download sizes, not RAM requirements.

This is an inference distribution, not a newly trained model. Training provenance, biases and limitations remain those of the upstream model.
