Mistral Vibe

Added

• The app-server reports which process holds a stored session, and pushes a change when that process lets go of it, so a client can show a session open elsewhere as read-only

• Rust CLI: Configure proxy and SSL certificate settings with /proxy-setup.

• Rust CLI: The narrator reads each turn's summary aloud and shows a speaking status row that Esc or Ctrl+C stops.

• Rust CLI: /plugins browses the session's plugins, and /reload-plugins re-pins them and reports what changed.

• Rust CLI: Free-text answers to agent questions accept multiple lines, multi-line pastes, and click-to-place caret.

• Rust CLI: In the /model and /thinking pickers, s applies the selection for the current session only, while Enter still saves it to your config.

• Rust CLI: Picking a model immediately opens the thinking level picker for that model, and both are applied together (Esc cancels both); after a session-only model pick, the thinking level is session-only too.

• nix run .#rustCli to launch the Rust terminal instead of the Python one

• Rust CLI: /whoami shows the start of your API key, its scope, and its access scope.

Added

• The app-server can discover built-in plugins from roots an embedding application ships, alongside the ones inside the package.
• Vibe Code warns when the selected model cannot view attached images.
• Vibe Code sessions list their background processes in a side panel with live status indicators and a Stop action for running ones.
• The ~/.vibe/.env fallback for the API key when the OS keyring is unavailable is now created owner-only (0600), so a saved key is no longer readable by other accounts on the machine.
• Rust CLI: first-run onboarding wizard with theme selection, API key entry stored in the OS keyring, and browser sign-in; it opens automatically when the API key is missing, and --setup runs it and exits.
• Rust CLI: /teleport, &<prompt> and --teleport send the session to Vibe Code Web, with push approval and Esc to cancel.
• Rust CLI: Configure voice mode and narration with /voice.
• Rust CLI: Schedule recurring prompts in natural language with /loop and model-managed cron tools.
• Rust CLI: Undo and redo composer edits with platform-aware keyboard shortcuts.

Added

• Rust CLI: support for configuring Vibe Code remote projects
• Clean up managed worktrees after archiving local sessions
• Archive local sessions so they can be hidden from active session lists
• Vibe Desktop now shows unseen indicators for local Code sessions that need attention or finish a turn
• Rust CLI: the live todo plan pins above the input, and Cmd+\ opens the full plan in a right sidebar.

Fixed

• MCP servers declared by a plugin now start, so the tools they carry are callable in the session
• Rust CLI: Support sessionless MCP server add and remove commands from the shell.
• Rust CLI: File completions respect the caret, preserve surrounding text, and allow directory descent.
• Rust CLI: Filter MCP servers and connectors with / in the MCP browser.
• Text selection, copying, and scrolling in trusted-folder prompts.
• Rust CLI no longer renders raw ANSI escape codes from tool output as garbled text.
• Rust CLI: Pasting into an interactive question now lands in the free-text answer box instead of the composer.
• Rust CLI: Selecting transcript text while an interactive question is open now highlights and copies it.

Added

• Subagent conversation history is readable through the owning parent session
• Configurable live subagent status and read-only transcript switching from the interactive prompt
• --experimental-harness sessions can track todos, shown as a pinned line under the input and in full on /todo, and keep a per-session scratchpad whose notes are re-stated to the agent after the conversation is summarised.
• Turn an installed skill on or off from the /skills browser without removing it.
• Skill authors can mark skills as explicit-only, keeping slash invocation available while preventing model-initiated loading.
• vibe mcp add --allow-insecure-http and /mcp add --allow-insecure-http opt into plaintext http:// MCP servers on non-localhost hosts, such as a server on the LAN.
• Tool telemetry events now carry approval_source (config/smart/user/bypass/never) to distinguish how a tool call was authorized.
• Press r in the MCP servers & connectors panel to refresh the list on demand.
• Connectors view now links to Studio to add more connectors, pre-scoped to your org and workspace.

Fixed

• Connector discovery excludes raw HTTP connectors that do not support MCP tools.
• A single invalid connector no longer prevents the rest of your connectors from loading; an individual tool with an oversized schema is dropped on its own, and accounts over the connector cap keep a bounded catalog instead of loading none.
• Automatic session titles use the active model on custom Mistral endpoints.
• Smart-approve now appears in the Vibe Desktop mode picker when enabled via its rollout, and a background refresh no longer drops it.
• ACP clients (Zed/JetBrains) always list the active mode, so a session can never get stuck on a mode missing from its own list.
• Smart-approve now escalates to a confirmation prompt when a risky action is requested again, instead of only blocking it, and shows the reason it is asking.
• Auto-approved calls no longer read as warnings: the reason smart-approve let a call run is shown as a note rather than a warning.
• @ file mentions now resolve against every workspace root, including --add-dir ones.
• A @ mention outside the workspace no longer rejects the whole message; it stays plain text and the read tool can still ask for it.

Added

• VS Code extension: debug submenu with log level picker, open log file, and a togglable session status panel showing agent statistics (steps, tokens, tokens/sec, context, cost)

Changed

• Open the session picker faster by building the merged session listing once per cursor walk instead of on every page.
• Renamed SessionBackendKind literals from "python"/"rust" to "legacy"/"unified" to match backend identity naming.

Fixed

• An "always" permission grant that fails to reach ~/.vibe now warns instead of passing silently: ConfigOrchestrator.set_field returns its errors rather than raising, so an ignored failure looked exactly like a successful write and the next session asked again with nothing to explain why.
• Steered prompts now preserve their host-provided display content in app-server session history.
• Preserve the selected permission mode when a session starts in a worktree.
• Managed worktree creation, attachment, and retention cleanup are serialized across processes, and stale reservations are recovered safely.
• Stop dropping a session from the picker when it is touched while paging through the list.

[2.25.1] - 2026-09-09

Added

• Desktop keeps 15 recent managed Code worktrees by default, configurable in Local Coding settings; cleanup skips active, dirty, untracked, or unpushed worktrees.
• Background process tools (process.start, process.stop, process.output, process.list, process.write) now show the command or process ID in the call header and a typed result widget instead of raw JSON.
• Tool call groups now fold into a single compact summary line by default. Click to expand the full list. Ctrl+O toggles all groups and result bodies. The summary shows present-tense labels while running (e.g. "Running commands") and past-tense when done (e.g. "Ran commands"). File edits and writes are included in the fold.
• Show a loading spinner in the conversation while /reload is in progress
• A risky call is returned to the model to self-correct rather than interrupting the human, escalating to an approval prompt only after a streak; no failure path auto-approves
• Experimental experimental_enable_tab_status config option: shows >> (running) and ? (waiting) indicators in the terminal tab title.

Added

• /skills browser for session skills, with search and filter; shared skills sync on session start. Experimental, off by default.
• Browser SSO completes behind split-horizon reverse proxies; opt-in browser_auth_allow_origin_rewrite rewrites sign-in/poll URLs onto configured origins
• Discovery of Mistral's built-in web-search connector
• Plugin-declared MCP servers in /mcp, tagged with their plugin and authenticatable via /mcp login; a pending login is announced at session start
• Connectors (Notion, Linear, Slack, GitHub, Gmail, Google Calendar, Drive) in ACP
• ACP elicitation-form clients can answer ask_user_question and exit_plan_mode
• Session-scoped model pinning for resumed conversations
• vibe update to check for and install a newer release

Changed

• Connector discovery skips unsupported protocols
• agents/list no longer requires a session id
• Prompt queueing runs through the app server with select, edit, remove, pause, and resume controls
• /skills browser groups by scope, fits rows to width, and pages long lists
• vibe --yolo selects the auto-approve profile (cyclable with Shift+Tab; blockable via disabled_agents)

Added

• In-app session picker with live preview
• /log-level command for runtime log-level control
• /retry is exposed to ACP clients
• Created worktrees are shown in the transcript
• Worktrees are cleaned up when their local session is deleted

Changed

• Faster startup: the TUI renders before session initialization and imports are deferred
• Faster session resume
• Edit and read tool headers show paths relative to the current directory
• Admin config fetch retries with exponential backoff
• Custom tools are flagged as deprecated

Fixed

• New worktrees branch from the remote default instead of local HEAD
• Configured temperature is respected for reasoning models
• Thinking setting updates correctly for routed models
• Path picker stays open on / and supports ../ traversal
• Escape sequences in command output no longer flood the input box
• Live tool-permission bypass propagates to child agent loops
• Managed shell output is no longer sent to the LLM twice
• Adding a tool to the allowlist keeps the default allowlist
• OpenTelemetry traces are sent to the correct endpoint

Added

• Inline ghost-text completion for mid-prompt skills
• /clear and /new accept an optional first prompt and show the resume id
• Compacted conversation history is preserved
• OpenTelemetry tracing configuration is now available

Changed

• Default agent renamed to ask and defaults to accept-edits
• Auto worktrees are named with a model
• Faster resume by deferring sub-agent instantiation

Fixed

• Surface MCP server startup failures to the user
• Text selection is now visible in the chat input
• Provider reasoning is replayed verbatim
• Detect and retry incomplete LLM streams
• Surface voice transcription errors instead of swallowing them
• Proactively refresh expired MCP OAuth tokens
• Theme switching is now responsive
• Crash on undo of a large multiline insert in the chat input
• Config modal headers stay visible on wrap, with a tighter layout
• Trusting the cwd no longer untrusts <cwd>/.vibe
• Home directory is no longer treated as a project root
• Explain the fallback when the configured default model is invalid
• Scope sensitive-file read grants and stop chat bypass
• Git Bash paths no longer create bogus C:\c\... directories on Windows
