Xiaomi's MiMo Code gets better as tasks get harder. Here's how.
Short summary
Xiaomi's MiMo Code is engineered for long-horizon coding tasks (50-200+ steps) using three strategies: compute-heavy verification, early checkpointing to preserve context, and persistent project memory. On tasks over 200 steps, it outperforms Claude Code 65%+ of the time.
- •MiMo Code specializes in long-horizon tasks where most agents fail due to context loss and error amplification
- •Uses temperature-voting verification, early checkpoints at 20/45/70% context usage, and persistent project memory
- •Benchmarks show 65%+ win rate over Claude Code on tasks over 200 steps; roughly 50/50 under 200 steps
