Mistral ships Vibe CLI v3.1.1 with a skill to import rival agent setups

Mistral AI released version 3.1.1 of Mistral Vibe, its open-source terminal coding agent, on November 9, 2026, according to the mistral-vibe v3.1.1 release notes. The update adds Vim-style keybindings, a pinned sticky prompt, a new /pr command, and a /vibe:import skill that migrates setups from competing coding agents.

What's new in version 3.1.1

• Vim Normal and Insert keybinding modes for the prompt input.
• A sticky prompt that stays pinned at the top of the screen while scrolling.
• A new /pr command for viewing pull requests from inside the CLI.
• A /vibe:import skill that imports instructions, skills, subagents, commands, hooks, MCP servers and permissions from other coding agents.
• New hook types: pre_agent, notification, session_start and session_end.
• Removal of the /teleport command and the experimental PR-monitoring settings.

What it means for builders

The /vibe:import skill is a direct competitive move: by letting users carry their instructions, skills, subagents, hooks, MCP servers and permissions straight from other coding agents into Vibe, Mistral makes it easier to switch away from tools such as Claude Code, Cursor and Codex CLI.

Availability

Mistral Vibe stays open source under the Apache-2.0 license and is powered by Devstral. Version 3.1.1 is available now from the mistral-vibe v3.1.1 release page.
