 "details": "MiniMax-M2: the chat template changed and renders differently (multi-turn, tool-call); prompts rendered with the old one no longer match what the model now expects, so cached prompts and eval sets need re-rendering (2025-12-08).\n\nRepository: https://huggingface.co/MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2. Revisions from f62f643a718e8be697da52e7d5d8b8d12b991001 onward carry this change; a pin at 9354a5cc95c7206e3371a772b4c8a4f000163401 or earlier does not.\n\nChanged keys:\n- tokenizer chat_template_sha256: 1deca769f6945a7d -> 86cd6e574dec52bf (template)\n\nThis record says what the change does mechanically. It is not a report that anything broke for anyone.",
