Mistral Vibe

Mistral's Vibe CLI in Open Free Max — devstral models, approval profiles from plan to auto-approve, and full history ingestion into project memory.

Mistral Vibe runs as a standard interactive session. Its integration is deliberately simple: no MCP wiring, no resume, but full participation in Open Free Max’s memory and usage tracking.

What OFM does with it

  • Fresh session per tab. Vibe exposes no resume flag, so each tab opens a new conversation.
  • History ingestion. Vibe transcripts are parsed and indexed into project memory, so past work stays searchable even though the conversation itself cannot be reopened.
  • No MCP injection. Vibe has no side-effect-free way to declare MCP servers at launch, so the memory tool, custom servers and the Obsidian vault are not wired in.
  • Estimated accounting in the Consumption view.

Launch flags

Setting Effect
Model e.g. devstral-2, devstral-small-2. Empty = default (devstral-2)
Agent profile default (asks before each tool), plan (read only), accept-edits, auto-approve
Additional folders Extra accessible directories
Config file Path to a custom config.toml
Additional arguments, Environment variables Escape hatches

Agent profiles and Mission Control

The agent profile decides how much Vibe asks:

  • default — asks before each tool. Every question is visible to Mission Control, which can auto-answer the ones you have approved before and queue the rest.
  • plan — read-only. Nothing to approve.
  • accept-edits — edits go through without asking; other tools still ask.
  • auto-approve — nothing asks, so nothing reaches the queue or the audit log. Trusted folders only.

Installation

Install the Mistral Vibe CLI with the assistant in the agent tab, then re-check. Under WSL, install inside the distribution rather than on the Windows side.

Frequently asked

Can a Vibe tab resume its previous conversation?
No. Vibe exposes no resume flag, so a new tab starts a new conversation. Its past conversations are still searchable through project memory.
Is Vibe history searchable in OFM?
Yes. Vibe transcripts are ingested into the project memory index alongside Claude Code, Codex and Antigravity.
