⬤ Mistral AI rolled out Vibe 2.0, giving its terminal-based coding assistant a serious upgrade aimed at developers who live in the command line. The new version changes how you can work with AI right inside your terminal—more control, better flexibility, and workflow options that actually fit how people code. It's built to be production-ready, not just a toy for experimenting.
⬤ Vibe 2.0 packs in custom subagents, multi-step clarifications before anything runs, slash-command skills, and unified agent modes. You can now shape how the assistant acts, double-check what it's about to do, and switch between different modes without bouncing around. Mistral says these changes make AI automation more predictable and transparent while keeping everything terminal-first.
⬤ Under the hood, it runs on Devstral 2, Mistral's latest model family. Devstral 2 now offers paid API access but stays free on Mistral Studio's Experimental plan. Vibe 2.0 works on Le Chat Pro and Team plans, with pay-as-you-go pricing or bring-your-own-key setups. That pricing structure lets you scale based on what you're building without breaking the bank upfront.
⬤ Mistral isn't just targeting solo coders—they're pushing Vibe 2.0 for teams and enterprises too. Power users can fine-tune models, apply reinforcement learning, and modernize massive codebases. The release shows where AI coding tools are heading: terminal-native, agent-based assistants that plug straight into how developers already work, with more configurability and reliability baked in from the start.
