SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Cross-cutting overview of how to wire mise into every major IDE — VSCode, JetBrains, Neovim, Xcode, Zed, Sublime Text. The "if you're not sure where to start" entry point that points to per-IDE skills for depth. Use when a user says "how do I make my IDE see mise".

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guides to wire mise activation into major IDEs with per-environment caveats.
  • Details four mechanisms for IDE integration: PATH shims, shell activation, native plugins, and asdf compatibility.
  • Real-world scenario: a developer wants their IDE session to use pinned tool versions for project checks and builds.

Quick Start

Open your shell profile and enable mise activation following the IDE-specific guidance in this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I make my IDE see mise pinned tool versions?

To make your IDE see mise pinned tool versions, you must wire mise activation into the editor session using PATH shims, shell activation, native plugins, or asdf compatibility mechanisms.

What are the different ways to integrate mise into a development environment?

Mise integration relies on four mechanisms: PATH shims, shell activation, native IDE plugins, and asdf compatibility, each exposing pinned project tools to the development environment differently.

Does mise activation work with VSCode, JetBrains, and Neovim?

Yes, mise activation works with VSCode, JetBrains IDEs, Neovim, Xcode, Zed, and Sublime Text, providing per-environment caveats to ensure correct project pins load when the IDE starts.

Why does my IDE build session ignore mise pinned tools?

Your IDE ignores mise pinned tools when shell activation or PATH shims are not properly wired into the editor's session startup, preventing the development environment from resolving project pins.

Can I use asdf compatibility to activate mise in my IDE?

Yes, you can use asdf compatibility as a mechanism to wire mise into your IDE, allowing your development environment to reliably expose pinned tools alongside PATH shims and shell activation.

What is the best way to configure mise for multiple IDEs?

The best way to configure mise across multiple IDEs is using a cross-cutting approach that points to per-IDE skills, ensuring the correct project pins are used when each IDE starts a session.
