Agents

Mistral Vibe

Configure Mistral Vibe CLI in Palabre and use it as a CLI agent in a debate pair.

Mistral Vibe is a development assistance CLI. Palabre uses it in programmatic mode with --prompt, then captures its text output.

Install before Palabre

Install and configure Mistral Vibe outside Palabre, then verify that the command works:

vibe --version

If Mistral Vibe was installed after your first Palabre configuration, open palabre again or synchronize explicitly:

palabre config --sync-agents

Windows

See Launching agents on Windows.

Default model

Palabre does not choose the Mistral Vibe model for you. Vibe uses its own default configuration. If you pass a model with --model-a, --model-b, or --summary-model, Palabre passes the value through the configured model option.

Typical configuration

Excerpt from the agents block:

"vibe": {
  "type": "cli",
  "command": "vibe",
  "args": ["--output", "text", "--trust", "--enabled-tools", "read", "--enabled-tools", "grep", "--prompt"],
  "promptMode": "argument",
  "modelArg": "--model",
  "role": "reviewer"
}

--enabled-tools read --enabled-tools grep disables every other tool in programmatic mode. --trust only skips the working-directory trust prompt; it does not authorize additional tools.

Usage

palabre codex-vibe "Review this plan" -t 4
palabre vibe-claude "Compare these options" -t 3

Mistral Vibe participates in Debate, Ask and Chat, not as a Relay target. The prompt is an argument; if no safe launch is available, PALABRE refuses the shell wrapper. A recognized limit gives usage-limit, without automatic retry.

Ollama

Use Ollama with Palabre to bring in local models or models compatible with your Ollama configuration.

Choose a mode

Choose between Debate, Relay, Ask, and Chat based on the number of agents and the kind of answer you need.
