mise

mise is a skill for Claude Code from julianobarbosa/claude-code-skills. It costs 246 tokens per session (1,942 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to mise, a tool that manages programming-language versions, directory-specific settings, and project tasks from one configuration file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to pin language or tool versions, switch environment variables by directory, and define commands for running project tasks.
Why use it?
It helps keep each developer's tools and environment consistent, while making setup details reviewable in the project.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

mise scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (Tools/lint.ts), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 132 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

mise Skill

mise (pronounced "meez", short for mise-en-place) is a single static binary that does three jobs that usually take three tools:

Job Tools it replaces Where it lives in config
Manage tool/language versions per project asdf, nvm, rbenv, pyenv [tools]
Switch environment variables per directory direnv, dotenv [env]
Run project tasks make, npm scripts, just [tasks.*] + mise run

Everything lives in one committed mise.toml. This skill enforces a consistent house style so every project's mise config reads the same way, and treats mise.toml as source-controlled infra: pinned, reviewable, reproducible.

Before you touch anything

mise.toml can execute code (via [tasks], env._.source, env._.file). Two habits keep that safe and predictable:

  1. Verify mise is present and how it's wired: run mise --version and mise doctor. doctor tells you whether the shell is activated, whether shims are on PATH, and which config files load. Never assume — the #1 class of mise bugs is "tool installed but not found", and it's almost always an activation/shim issue, not a version issue.
  2. Trust before you run: mise refuses to evaluate a config in an untrusted directory. After creating or editing a mise.toml, mise trust in that directory (or add the path to trusted_config_paths).

Per the operating rules here: any executable helper you add to a project ships as TypeScript run with bun, never Python or npm/npx.

Choose a workflow

Route to the workflow file that matches the request. Each is a self-contained recipe — read it, then follow it.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
