MiniMax web search via the Token Plan API — keyed, no CAPTCHA

## How to install

1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs (this one needs `MINIMAX_API_KEY`), then asks whether to turn it on.

```bash
hermes plugins install minimax-search
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable minimax-search
```

3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see the official page. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/plugins
