mise

Getting Started

1. Install the skill using the command above
2. Open your AI coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, or Cursor)
3. Reference the skill in your prompt
4. The AI will use the skill's capabilities automatically

Example Prompts

• "Review the open pull requests and summarize what needs attention"
• "Generate a changelog from the last 20 commits on the main branch"

Overview

mise manages tool versions — Node.js, Python, Go, Rust, Ruby, etc. One tool replaces nvm, pyenv, rbenv, and asdf. Also runs project tasks.

Instructions

Step 1: Install

curl https://mise.run | sh
echo 'eval "$(mise activate bash)"' >> ~/.bashrc

Step 2: Configuration

# mise.toml — Project tool versions and tasks
[tools]
node = "20"
python = "3.12"
go = "1.22"

[env]
DATABASE_URL = "postgresql://localhost/myapp"

[tasks.dev]
run = "npm run dev"

[tasks.test]
run = "npm test"

mise install    # install all tools
mise run dev    # run task

Guidelines

• mise is 10-100x faster than asdf (Rust vs bash).
• Reads .tool-versions, .node-version, .python-version — drop-in replacement.
• Tasks in mise.toml replace Makefiles and package.json scripts.
