| Mistral | MISTRAL_API_KEY |
API Key |
| Groq | GROQ_API_KEY |
API Key |
| Cerebras | CEREBRAS_API_KEY |
API Key |
| Hugging Face | HUGGINGFACE_API_KEY |
API Key |
| Qwen | None (Default) | OAuth (via /auth in qwen CLI) |
| Ollama | Not Required | Local (Default: http://localhost:11434) |
| Llama.cpp | Not Required | Local (Default: http://localhost:8080) |
Tip
For Qwen, install qwen-code if not installed: npm install -g @qwen-code/qwen-code@latest, then use /auth in qwen to authenticate, then you can close qwen and use qwencode provider in ReVibe.
Simply run revibe to enter the interactive TUI.
- Multi-line Input: Use
Ctrl+JorShift+Enterfor newlines. - File Referencing: Type
@to trigger fuzzy path autocompletion. - Direct Commands: Prefix with

|---|---|
/provider |
Switch the active LLM provider |
/model |
Change the model for the current provider |
/config |
Open configuration settings |
/status |
View session stats and token usage |

ReVibe uses TOML for configuration. It checks ./.revibe/config.toml first, then falls back to ~/.revibe/config.toml.
Example MCP Configuration
[[mcp_servers]]
name = "fetch_server"
transport = "stdio"
command = "uvx"
args = ["mcp-server-fetch"]
[[mcp_servers]]
name = "github"
transport = "http"
url = "https://mcp-github-server.com"
api_key_env = "GITHUB_TOKEN"Customizing Agent Behavior
You can create specialized agents in ~/.revibe/agents/my_agent.toml:
active_model = "gpt-4o"
system_prompt_id = "architect"
disabled_tools = ["bash"]
[tools.read_file]
permission = "always"Launch with revibe --agent my_agent.
ReVibe supports the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), allowing it to act as a backend for compatible editors like Zed. See ACP Setup for instructions.
