Release notes
v2026.1.11: Speed Demons and Scoped Providers
This release focuses on performance improvements and fixing several edge cases that affected users with complex configurations. The headline changes include significant startup time reduction for mise x (exec) and a new consolidated manifest system that replaces the per-tool .mise.backend files, making tool installations cleaner and faster.
Configuration management gets more flexible with support for loading .config/miserc.toml in local directories, and the prepare providers are now properly scoped to their defining config files—fixing issues where providers could leak between projects.
Highlights
- Faster
mise xstartup - Reduced overhead when running commands throughmise x, which should be noticeable for frequently executed commands (#7890) - Consolidated backend manifest - Tool installations now use a single manifest file instead of individual
.mise.backendfiles per tool, improving both performance and disk organization (#7892) - Local
.config/miserc.tomlsupport - You can now place mise configuration in.config/miserc.tomlwithin your project directory, following XDG conventions (#7896) - thanks @scop!
