vibe

vibe is a skill for Claude Code from kharonsec/vibe-plugin. It costs 133 tokens per session (1,811 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A delegation skill that sends straightforward coding work to the Mistral Vibe command-line tool, an external coding agent powered by Devstral 2.1.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for simple refactors, boilerplate, test scaffolding, documentation updates, and similar clearly specified file changes.
Why use it?
It can handle well-defined, mechanical work while leaving more complex reasoning to the main agent, provided Vibe is installed and configured.

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 C, and why

vibe scanned grade C with 2 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 1mo ago.

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.

Mistral Vibe CLI Delegation Skill

Delegate simple, well-defined coding tasks to Mistral's Vibe CLI agent (powered by Devstral 2.1) to save Claude tokens for harder problems. Vibe runs non-interactively via --prompt and returns results that Claude summarizes for the user.

Prerequisites

  • vibe CLI installed and on PATH (install: curl -LsSf https://mistral.ai/vibe/install.sh | bash)
  • Mistral API key configured (~/.vibe/.env or MISTRAL_API_KEY env var)
  • Confirm installation: vibe --version; resolve any errors before using this skill

If vibe is not installed or not configured, inform the user and provide the installation instructions above. Do NOT attempt to run vibe commands if the prerequisites are not met.

How It Works

  1. Claude evaluates the user's request
  2. If the task is simple/mechanical, Claude delegates to Vibe via a shell command
  3. Vibe runs non-interactively with --prompt, auto-approving tool executions
  4. Claude reads the output and summarizes results back to the user
  5. If Vibe's output is insufficient or incorrect, Claude can either retry with a refined prompt or fall back to handling the task itself

Task Routing Guidelines

Delegate to Vibe (cheap, fast)

  • Boilerplate generation (new files, structs, interfaces, CRUD endpoints)
  • Simple refactors (rename, extract function, move code between files)
  • Test scaffolding and simple test writing
  • Documentation and comment generation
  • Formatting, linting fixes, import sorting
  • Dependency version bumps
  • Mechanical find-and-replace across files
  • Adding error handling to straightforward functions
  • Generating type definitions or interfaces from existing code
  • Simple bug fixes where the issue is clearly identified

Keep in Claude (complex, nuanced)

  • Architectural decisions or design pattern selection
  • Security-sensitive code review or vulnerability analysis
  • Complex multi-step debugging requiring deep reasoning
  • Performance optimization requiring profiling analysis
  • Tasks requiring understanding of the full project context across many files
  • Anything the user explicitly wants Claude to handle

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.

vibe is a skill published in the GitHub repository kharonsec/vibe-plugin (4 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 133 tokens to every session and 1,811 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
