Mistral AI officially launched Mistral Vibe 2.0, a significant upgrade to its terminal-native AI coding agent, powered by the advanced Devstral 2 model family and designed to accelerate, customize, and streamline software development across teams and individual developers. The new release introduces key enhancements including custom subagents, which let users build specialized assistants for targeted tasks such as script deployment, pull request reviews, or test generation, as well as multi-choice clarifications, so Vibe prompts developers with options when intent is ambiguous rather than guessing, slash-command skills for loading preconfigured workflows like deploying, linting, or generating documentation with a simple “/” command, and unified agent modes that combine tools, permissions, and behaviors into cohesive contexts for smoother workflow transitions. “Today, we’re releasing Mistral Vibe 2.0 a major upgrade to our terminal-native coding agent, powered by the state-of-the-art Devstral 2 model family.

Build custom subagents, clarify before you execute, load skills with slash commands, and configure your own workflows to match how you work,” the company said in its announcement, emphasizing that Vibe is aimed at helping teams build, maintain, and ship code faster. Vibe 2.0 also features continuous automatic updates for the Vibe CLI, eliminating manual update overheads, and is available immediately on Le Chat Pro and Team plans with generous usage allowances, pay-as-you-go credits for heavy workflows, or bring-your-own-API-key options, while the underlying Devstral 2 models transition to paid API access with free access on the Experiment plan within Mistral Studio. Enterprise customers gain access to advanced add-ons, including fine-tuning on internal languages and DSLs, reinforcement learning with proprietary environments, and end-to-end code modernization services, making Vibe 2.0 a compelling tool for modern software engineering teams seeking powerful, customizable AI assistance within their existing development environments.
