Libraries

How to use MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-H3-Image-PE with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-H3-Image-PE")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# pip install -U transformers accelerate
# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForMultimodalLM

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-H3-Image-PE")
model = AutoModelForMultimodalLM.from_pretrained("MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-H3-Image-PE", device_map="auto")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=256)
print(processor.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

Adds a short "Use with Diffusers" section: text-to-image and edit PE through the diffusers/minimax-h3-image-pe-blocks custom blocks, which wrap the released prompts and request settings and constrain the answer with XGrammar.

Notes for review:

The ~~19 GiB figure assumes the 4-bit loading PR on the blocks repo (https://huggingface.co/diffusers/minimax-h3-image-pe-blocks/discussions/1) is merged; without it the blocks dequantize to bf16 (~~52 GiB).
The blocks repo is private for now, so the section only works once it is public.
Tested through ModularPipeline on an RTX PRO 6000: text-to-image and edit, NVFP4 and bitsandbytes backends, all returning valid schema-constrained answers.

Thanks for the Diffusers section! Main has changed since this PR was opened (the license now points to the MiniMax-H3-Image repo, and "Edit PE" has been renamed to "Image editing PE"). Could you rebase onto the current main and:

use "Image editing PE" consistently na, and refer to the model as MiniMax-H3-Image-PE;
keep the section between "How to use Image editing PE" and "License";

We'll merge right after that.
