This release adds resumable HTTP downloads, expands Homebrew cask support, and lands a large batch of fixes across tasks, config, install, and platform-specific behavior — with a particular focus on monorepos and Windows.

Highlights

  • Interrupted artifact downloads now resume instead of restarting from zero, and more transient network failures (including HTTP/2 REFUSED_STREAM) are retried automatically.
  • The Homebrew cask backend gained structured symlinks, generic artifacts, and copy/installer flight steps, closing several gaps in cask installation.
  • A wide round of monorepo task, config precedence, and Windows path handling fixes.

Added

  • http: interrupted downloads now resume via HTTP Range requests when a strong ETag or Last-Modified validator is available, keeping validated partial files across retries and mise invocations instead of re-downloading from byte zero. mise falls back to a clean restart when validators do not match, and abandoned partials expire after 30 days. (#11866 by @Marukome0743)

  • brew: the Homebrew cask backend now supports structured symlink steps (with path bases, templates, guards, source globs, and sudo control), generic cask artifacts, and copy/installer flight steps, with transactional rollback if an install fails. (#11962, #11963, #11964 by @jdx)

  • task: mise run --all opens the interactive task picker with tasks from the entire monorepo, matching the load path already used by mise tasks ls --all. The default picker stays scoped to the current directory hierarchy. (#11920 by @jdx)

    mise run --all

  • task: add task.cache.audit_report (MISE_TASK_CACHE_AUDIT_REPORT) to write the complete cache-audit report to a JSON Lines file. The console still caps at 20 paths per task, but the file now captures every undeclared read and write so large audits (e.g. Jest over node_modules) are actually usable. (#11997 by @stevenpollack)

    MISE_TASK_CACHE_AUDIT_REPORT=audit.jsonl mise run --force build

  • dotfiles: whole-file [dotfiles] entries can now declare their body inline with content = "..." instead of requiring a separate source file, useful for small configs and user-writable paths outside $HOME. content cannot be combined with source, mode, or exclude. (#11983 by @jdx)

  • deps: deps provider config fields (paths, commands, env, descriptions, timeouts) now render Tera templates using the defining config file's context, with shell-style environment expansion and rendered env values folded into freshness identity. Template errors surface as clear configuration errors before commands run. (#11886 by @Marukome0743)

  • config: add a config-root-scoped [tool_config] locked = true policy that requires tools declared by configs sharing that root to resolve and install from their lockfiles, without forcing global or parent-root tools into strict mode. [settings] locked, --locked, and MISE_LOCKED remain invocation-wide. (#11940 by @jdx)

Fixed

  • task: in monorepo mode, running a task by its bare or :-prefixed name now works from any directory below a config root, resolving to the nearest enclosing project instead of failing. (#11941 by @pikeas)
  • task: normalize task cwd for source freshness (#11987 by @jdx), bound buffered command output (#11922), avoid zsh process-substitution hangs (#11904), and normalize variadic usage env values (#11881) by @Marukome0743; mask archive modes in remote cache nodes (#11877 by @stevenpollack).
  • http: retry send failures that never produced a response, including HTTP/2 REFUSED_STREAM, which CDNs emit as backpressure and which previously failed on the first attempt even with retries enabled. (#11961 by @mariadeluna-tomtom)
  • http: honor system install destinations for downloads. (#11851 by @Marukome0743)
  • aqua: when a downloaded checksum file lists per-file hashes but none match the target filename, mise now errors instead of silently returning a wrong checksum. (#11973 by @jakedgy)
  • pipx: discover wheel-only package versions from PEP 503 Simple API indexes, so packages published only as wheels now appear in mise ls-remote and latest resolution. (#11959 by @jdx)
  • rust: the rolling nightly channel now resolves to a concrete nightly-YYYY-MM-DD toolchain via the official channel manifest, making nightly lock, outdated, upgrade, and offline reuse reproducible while keeping mise.toml on nightly. (#11980 by @Marukome0743)
  • ruby: support ruby-build CLI options. (#11918 by @Marukome0743)
  • conda: preserve cross-platform lock data (#11946 by @jdx) and honor URL replacements (#11930 by @Marukome0743).
  • npm: render lifecycle logs through the progress display. (#11939 by @jdx)
  • oci: strip the tag from name:tag@digest references so pulling a base image by combined tag-and-digest no longer produces a malformed token scope, while preserving registry ports. (#11979 by @fire-ant)
  • install: write tool manifests atomically. (#11957 by @jdx)
  • lock: include task-specific tools in the lockfile. (#11976 by @Marukome0743)
  • deps: invalidate deps state when a provider's command, environment, working directory, or shell changes, so an edited run command is no longer skipped as fresh (#11849); honor source and output overrides (#11896) by @Marukome0743.
  • hooks: skip tool installation in preinstall tasks. (#11927 by @Marukome0743)
  • exec: allow a symlinked resolv.conf inside the sandbox. (#11958 by @jdx)
  • generate: honor absolute localized directories. (#11975 by @NgoQuocViet2001)
  • config: allow typing j/k to filter in the mise edit tool picker (#11969 by @jakedgy); create the config directory before writing into it (#11934) and stop a conf.d drop-in from becoming the write target (#11917) by @JamBalaya56562.
  • bootstrap: avoid sudo for user-writable files (#11984) and allow Windows bootstrap without system files (#12003) by @jdx.
  • semver: stop labeling a mangled value as a semver range. (#11949 by @JamBalaya56562)

Windows fixes

Changed

  • upgrade/outdated: -b is now the shorthand for --bump. The old -l bump shorthand is hidden and deprecated (removal planned for 2027.8.5) so -l can later mean --local. When tools are current within configured ranges but a bump is available outside them, both commands now say so instead of reporting everything up to date. (#11945 by @jdx)
  • cli: mise use --global alongside a path is now rejected instead of silently ignored. (#11935 by @JamBalaya56562)

Deprecated

  • config: the automatic all_compile = true default on NixOS is deprecated and scheduled for removal in 2027.8.0. It currently forces source builds for Node, Python, Erlang, and Ruby even when precompiled binaries work through nix-ld; mise now warns and points to enabling nix-ld or setting all_compile = true explicitly. Alpine's source-build default is unchanged. (#11956 by @jdx)
