About

What is Mistral Vibe?

Vibe is Mistral AI's open-source terminal coding agent. Distributed via a curl install script or uv, configured through a TOML file, multi-provider by design. You can wire several backends into one config and reference them per model. Python-based (3.12+), so startup is a tick slower than Go-based agents, but inference dominates once warmed up. The Mistral-native client of choice if you're already inside that ecosystem.

Setup

How to use Mistral Vibe with Melious?

  1. Install Vibe

    Run Vibe's official installer. Works on macOS, Linux, and Windows. Requires Python 3.12+. uv and pip are alternative install paths.

    Shell
    # Official installer (macOS / Linux / Windows, requires Python 3.12+)
curl -LsSf https://mistral.ai/vibe/install.sh | bash

# Or via uv
uv tool install mistral-vibe

  2. Add Melious as a provider

    Create ./.vibe/config.toml (Vibe checks this first) or ~/.vibe/config.toml for a global default. [[providers]] and [[models]] are TOML array-of-tables. active_model references a model's alias, not its name. Browse melious.ai/hub/models for current model IDs.

    ~/.vibe/config.toml
    active_model = "melious-main"

[[providers]]
name = "melious"
api_base = "https://api.melious.ai/v1"
api_key_env_var = "MELIOUS_API_KEY"
api_style = "openai"
backend = "generic"

[[models]]
name = "<MODEL_ID>"
provider = "melious"
alias = "melious-main"
temperature = 0.2

  3. Run Vibe

    Vibe reads the key from the env var named in api_key_env_var. Export it, or drop it in ~/.vibe/.env so you don't have to repeat it per session.

    Shell
    export MELIOUS_API_KEY=sk-mel-<YOUR_API_KEY>
vibe
