What's New

Experimental daemons and vfox integration added; HTTP tool extraction directory changed.

Breaking Changes

  • HTTP tools now extract into their own install directory by default; set `shared_extraction = true` to revert to deduplication.
  • PostgreSQL, Redis, and MongoDB registry backends now prefer the `conda:` backend instead of vfox/asdf.

New Features

  • Project daemons managed by Pitchfork with auto-start/stop on shell entry.
  • `mise doctor project` command for custom environment checks.
  • vfox backend integration for tool discovery in `mise search` and shell completion.
  • New `settings.truncate` option and `--no-truncate` flag for terminal output.
  • [bootstrap.macos.dock] support for pinning application paths with the `apps` list.

Improvements

  • Performance improvements skip needless lockfile rewrites for warm `lockfile_mode = "generate"` installs.
  • OCI builds share a local tool-layer cache.
  • HTTP tools cleanup improvements via default extraction directory.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixes for nushell, monorepo, lockfile, brew, and Windows bootstrap issues.

Upgrade Notes

To revert to the previous deduplicated symlink layout, set `shared_extraction = true` in your configuration. Update registry backends to `conda` if using PostgreSQL, Redis, or MongoDB.
