-**Planning and reasoning tasks** use Kimi K2.5, a strong open-weight reasoning model from Moonshot AI.
-
-**Implementation tasks** use Minimax M2.7, which provides fast, capable code generation at a fraction of frontier model costs.

-{% callout type="info" title="Image support" %}
-Auto Balanced does not support image inputs, since Minimax M2.7 does not have vision capabilities.
