Xiaomi’s miniaturized agents are available on your computer!
Xiaomi team released the downsized version of their new agent model MiMo V2.6. While the flagship has 309 billion parameters, this one can run on a standard laptop.
Authors define it as “an agentic model with 9 billion parameters, fine-tuned on data generated by MiMo”. The fine-tuning process was carried out by the team XiaomiMiMo (Xiaomi’s AI department). This is a downsized version of the MiMo V2.6 family. The flagship model of the MiMo V2.6 family has 309 billion parameters and cannot be run locally. The model can write and correct code, take incremental actions via terminal interfaces, recognize UI screenshots, and perform cybersecurity tasks. Their performance on the AutomationBench test suite (which measures automated task completion on a personal computer) increased from 5 to 30.3 out of 100 points compared to Qwen3.5-9B of equal size. The SWE Pro test suite (which evaluates the ability to repair a code bug) increased from 32 to 44.6 out of 100 points. Authors consider this release as a beta version, a rough draft to train the agents.
Why a vibe-coder should care
It can be installed on your device locally with a MIT license and without any other key. So, in terms of quality it is far from the Claude Code, but it’s a small model, and authors call this version early. For developing scenarios with the agent, for simple repeatable code tasks or when you have no money — it’s a good choice.
How to install
Copy this and send it to your agent — Claude Code, Codex, any of them:
Set up Xiaomi's MiMo-V2.6-Distill-Qwen-9B model locally for me: https://huggingface.co/XiaomiMiMo/MiMo-V2.6-Distill-Qwen-9B — pick a compressed version that fits my laptop, run it, and show me how to give it an agent task such as fixing code.
A regular laptop with 16 GB of RAM or more — the compressed version of the model takes about 6 GB.
