We present TokaMind, to our knowledge the first open-source foundation model for tokamak plasma dynamics, based on a Multi-Modal Transformer (MMT) and pretrained on heterogeneous diagnostics from the publicly available MAST dataset. TokaMind supports multiple data modalities (time-series, 2D profiles, and videos) with different sampling rates, robust missing-signal handling, and efficient task adaptation via selectively loading and freezing four model components. To represent multi-modal signals, we use a lightweight fixed-basis Discrete Cosine Transform embedding (DCT3D) and provide a clean interface for alternative embeddings (e.g., Variational Autoencoders). We evaluate TokaMind on the recently introduced MAST benchmark TokaMark, which comprises 14 tasks with heterogeneous reconstruction and forecasting objectives. Our results show that fine-tuned TokaMind outperforms the strongest benchmark baseline on all but one task. Compared with training the same architecture from scratch under a matched epoch budget, warm-start adaptation is most beneficial on demanding downstream settings, including long-horizon forecasting and high-dimensional equilibrium objectives. These findings highlight the value of multi-modal pretraining for tokamak plasma dynamics and provide a practical, extensible foundation for future fusion modeling tasks. Training code and model weights are publicly available at github.com/UKAEA-IBM-STFC-Fusion-FMs/tokamind and huggingface.co/UKAEA-IBM-STFC, respectively.
