⚡ Match Highlights: jdx/mise/pull/

jdx · 2026-10-18T02:05:22Z

https://entire.io/gh/jdx/mise/trails/857

The docs gain a mise.toml reference: every key mise reads from a mise.toml, from the top-level sections down through their tables, with each key's type, choices, default and description. Before, the only complete list of keys was schema/mise.json itself, and the descriptions an editor shows on hover appeared nowhere in the docs.

The page

The page opens with each section and the keys directly in it. Click a key to open the keys inside it, or type in the filter box to search every key's name and description. With a filter, only the matching keys show, with the keys above them, and the filter is kept in the URL (/configuration/reference.html?filter=rename_exe). A link to any key, such as #tasks.<name>.depends, opens the keys above it and scrolls to it, and Expand all shows the whole tree.

A key that has the same keys as another links to it instead of repeating them. For example, tasks.<name>.tools.<github:…> says "Same keys as tools.<github:…>", and task_templates.<name>.run points at tasks.<name>.run. This brings the reference from 2,663 keys to 1,074; the tool options repeated under tasks, task templates and monorepo task defaults were most of the difference.

Names in angle brackets stand for keys the user chooses. [settings] links to the existing settings reference rather than repeating it.

Markdown for agents

The page needs its script to show most keys, so the docs build also writes the reference as plain Markdown: an index at /configuration/reference.md and one file per section under /configuration/reference/, such as tasks.md. Every key is written out with its full path. The largest file, bootstrap.md, is 39 KB. llms.txt lists the index next to the page.

Size

Measured on the built site, compared with rendering every key into the page:

	before	after
`reference.html`	972 KB	313 KB (about 290 KB of it is the site's sidebar and theme, as on every page)
`<li>` in the HTML	2,724	226
page JavaScript	582 KB	41 KB
rest of the reference, loaded after the page shows	—	232 KB (26 KB gzipped)

Implementation

docs/config-reference.data.ts is a VitePress data loader, like settings.data.ts. It follows $ref and the combinators to collect each key's types and children. Only $ref and allOf count for deprecation, so one deprecated alternative form doesn't mark the whole key deprecated. Keys a shape forbids with false, as task templates do for hide and five others, are left out. Repeated trees are found by comparing what each key has below it; the key kept is the one that is not deprecated, outside a derived section (task_templates, monorepo), nearest the top, and then first in the schema.
docs/config-sections.data.ts holds just the sections and their direct keys for the first render; the full tree is a separate chunk the page imports after mounting. If that import fails, the page says so and links to the Markdown copy.
docs/components/config-reference.vue and config-keys.vue render the page. The link checker treats this page's anchors as created in the browser, as it already does for the releases page.
The buildEnd hook in docs/.vitepress/config.ts writes the Markdown files.

The page is generated from schema/mise.json, which is itself generated from mise-config's declaration types and doc comments, so it can't fall behind the parser.

Validation

mise run docs:build passes, including the social-image and link checks; the llms.txt tests pass.
In headless Chromium against vitepress preview, I checked: no hydration or console errors, opening a key, the filter (19 keys match rename_exe, other sections hide, the URL keeps it and a reload restores it), a deep link to tools.<github:…>.platforms.<key>.bin, a "same keys as" link, Expand all (1,037 rows in under 100 ms), and no horizontal scroll at 400 px in dark mode.

Stacked on #14640.

Note

Medium Risk
Touches core config deserialization for hooks, tasks, and env (behavior should match untagged but error paths differ), plus new warning logic on every mise.toml load; docs build pipeline changes are lower risk.

Overview
Adds an interactive mise.toml reference generated from schema/mise.json: a filterable, expandable Vue page with lazy-loaded full key tree, deep links, and sameAs deduplication; the docs build also emits plain Markdown (reference.md plus per-section files) and lists them in llms.txt.

Config parsing UX improves by replacing several #[serde(untagged)] paths (hooks, task run entries, deserialize_arr list items) with hand-written deserializers that preserve prior shape resolution but surface specific errors and unknown keys. [env] rejects arrays/floats/dates up front and expands generic Val failures with field hints.

Unknown mise.toml keys now warn with file line/column and schema-based “did you mean …?” suggestions via a shared config::schema walker and fuzzy::nearest; include fragments use the cache path for location when loaded.

E2E tests cover shape errors and unknown-key warnings; env schema descriptions are slightly clarified.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Documentation
- Added a mise.toml reference page listing configuration keys, types, descriptions, defaults, and available choices.
- Added links to the reference from the Configuration sidebar, configuration guide, and documentation index.
- Clarified that environment-variable entries can be specified as values or tables containing value, default, required, or age.

mise-config becomes the home for every mise.toml declaration type, so the JSON schema can be generated from them. It starts as the existing [bootstrap], [dotfiles] and [history] types. The crate no longer depends on mise-system-packages or mise-util. Three PackageTomlConfig methods needed them (snap_options, desired and is_os_supported). They now live in an extension trait in mise-system, their only caller. Behavior is unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M55GS7V9R1DD24SAY8NV1H49

schema/mise.json is written by hand and keeps drifting from the parser. This adds the machinery to generate it from the mise-config types, one section at a time, starting with [history]. - mise-config gains a default `schema` feature (schemars). mise and mise-system turn it off, so the binary does not build the derives. - `schema::fragments()` returns each generated section with the JSON pointer it replaces. Transforms keep the output in the file's style: no null types or defaults (TOML has no null), unknown keys rejected unless a type opts out, and `type`/`description` first. - `mise run render:schema` runs the `render-schema` example and writes each fragment into schema/mise.json, after the settings. - A mise-config test fails while the committed file differs from the generated sections. The [history] doc comments are now the schema descriptions, with the existing text unchanged. The only schema changes are key order and `default` values for `exclude`, `reload` and `recipients`.

The lint runner's rustc is older than the MSRV, so render:schema now passes --ignore-rust-version like the other CI cargo commands. The example declares required-features = ["schema"], so `cargo check -p mise-config --no-default-features --all-targets` skips it.

The mise-config declaration types now have no platform cfgs, so a schema generated from them does not depend on the build host. - [bootstrap.linux.firewall] used typed fields on Linux and a raw map elsewhere. Every platform now parses the typed form. macOS and Windows still skip it at bootstrap time with the same warning. An invalid value is now an error there too, instead of only on Linux. - [bootstrap.brew] adopt existed only on Unix, so Windows warned that the key was unknown. It is now parsed everywhere and still read only on Unix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M55HQ9WE9984KDKEGZG0E6A4

[bootstrap] in schema/mise.json is now generated from the mise-config types and their doc comments, as [history] already is. - Every typed subsection is derived: files, directories, packages, repos, remote, services, compose, secrets, groups, users, brew, login_items, launchd agents, systemd units and the firewall. Cross-field rules (if/then, oneOf, dependentRequired, propertyNames) are attributes on the type they constrain. - Fields that stay raw TOML (hooks, mise_shell_activate, apt sources, dnf repos and the macOS defaults tables) keep their hand-written schema, moved unchanged into $defs and referenced from the generated tree. - schemars is now a plain dependency of mise-config; the `schema` feature is gone. mise already links schemars through rmcp, and cfg_attr on every annotation would have been unreadable. - New transforms: drop null from enums and Option anyOf, drop empty [] / {} defaults, drop integer `format`, and close only typed objects. Schema changes: [bootstrap] and its macos, linux, user, brew, apt, dnf, launchd, systemd, launchd agent and systemd unit tables now reject unknown keys, like the rest of the schema. launchd agents gain keep_alive_on_failure and nice, which mise already accepted. Booleans and phase show their defaults. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M55K4SJK1836AANZRQQY4A2K

mise-system only accepts nice from -20 to 20 and rejects keep_alive together with keep_alive_on_failure, so the schema now does too. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M55M38N3Z1HAFAX7FZXKHGHE

…into mise-config These four mise.toml sections now live in mise-config as plain declaration types, and their part of schema/mise.json is generated from them. - DoctorConfig/DoctorCheck, ToolConfig, WatchFile and CommandWrapper/CommandWrapperOptions move unchanged. mise re-exports them from their old paths. - DoctorCheck::applies needed the host OS matcher, so it is now `config::doctor::applies` in mise. - deserialize_arr moves to `mise_config::de`, re-exported from `config_file::toml`, because doctor's `os` uses it. doctor, tool_config and wrappers derive their schema; it accepts the same configs as the hand-written one (tool_config uses additionalProperties in place of the equivalent unevaluatedProperties). WatchFile is one flat struct for both its run and task forms, so its JsonSchema impl is written by hand next to it, keeping the two closed variants that tombi can enforce. hooks stay hand-written: the schema allows a current-shell `shell` only on enter/leave/cd and marks install-hook script forms deprecated. The parser has one HookDefItem for every hook, so there is no type to derive those rules from. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M55MAMXXAJTETYTJXVAFNX42

[oci], [daemons_settings] and [daemon_groups] are now generated from their types in mise-config, and the [daemons] entry type moves with them. - OciConfig and OciCopy move from mise-oci, with OciCopy's FromStr and validation and OciConfig::fill_defaults_from, which are plain string and merge logic. mise-oci re-exports both. - Declaration, DaemonSettings, GroupDeclaration and GroupTable move from mise-daemons, which re-exports them. DaemonSettings::merge and namespace_per_worktree and GroupDeclaration::members become pub so mise-daemons can still call them. - mise-oci and mise-daemons now depend on mise-config, and release-plz pins it for both. The generated schema for [daemons_settings] and [daemon_groups] is identical to the hand-written one; [oci] uses additionalProperties in place of the equivalent unevaluatedProperties. A [daemons] definition stays a raw table that mise-daemons checks when it builds the daemon, so its schema is still written by hand.

The [env] and [vars] declaration types and their parser now live in mise-config, next to a hand-written JSON schema. - EnvList, EnvDirective, EnvDirectiveOptions, RequiredValue and AgeFormat move from mise, which re-exports them. The options' fields become pub. The parser (the EnvList visitor, deserialize_vars and deserialize_root_env) moves as is. - Deprecated spellings (`env.mise`, and `value`/`values` in a file, path or source directive) are typed Deprecation values that the parser hands to a handler. mise registers it at startup and still warns with deprecated_at!, with the same ids, versions and messages. - EnvDirective's Display shows paths through a hook mise registers, so `mise tasks info` still shortens the home directory. - The parser's string/integer/boolean value type is a private copy of mise-util's EnvValue, which this crate does not depend on. The $defs for env, vars and the env_* parts are now written in crates/mise-config/src/env/schema.rs. They were moved unchanged, and rendering leaves schema/mise.json byte for byte the same. They skip the generator's transforms. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M55PECYE5JG5T5HPNJK4N76N

[env], [vars] and [[watch_files]] have hand-written JsonSchema impls, so editing their parser or doc comments alone does not change the schema. AGENTS.md listed them with the derived sections. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M55QVY00DFXCXHHPJ449N5AA

main now lets [vars] entries take `tools`, like [env]. The [vars] schema is written in env/schema.rs on this branch, so the change goes there; the freshness test caught the difference after merging main.

main's #14620 added EnvDirective::FileGroup and grouping of plain relative names in a find_up `_.file` list, in the [env] parser this PR moves to mise-config. The variant, its Display, and the grouping now live in mise-config. `plain_relative` checks for a leading `~` the way mise's `file::replace_path` expands it, since mise-config has no access to that function.

The types a `[tasks.<name>]` table's fields parse into now live in mise-config, ready for a TaskDecl there. Task itself does not move yet. - Moved as is, with their pure methods: TaskConfirm, TaskDep (including parse_shell_style_env), RunEntry, TaskOutputs, Silent, TaskDaemons, TaskSecrets with its G4/G5 messages, TaskWatchOptions, TaskCacheConfig, TaskRustCacheConfig, TaskToolValue/TaskToolValueMap, ParsedToolMap and TaskOutput. mise re-exports each from its old path. - Methods that render tera templates or build tool requests stay in mise as extension traits: TaskDepExt (render), RunEntryExt (render, has_tera_template), TaskOutputsExt (paths, render, re_render_with_env, has_tera_template, raw_templates_without_env) and TaskToolValueExt (to_tool_arg, has_template, render_templates). - TaskOutput moves out of mise-settings, which pulls in reqwest and tokio through mise-cache-core. mise-settings now depends on mise-config and re-exports it, and release-plz publishes mise-bootstrap and mise-config before mise-settings. No behavior change; schema/mise.json is unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M55R11JKZ6SH6VY2P87NG688

A `[tasks.<name>]` table now parses into mise_config::task::TaskDecl, and mise builds its runtime Task from it with Task::from_decl. Task no longer derives Deserialize. - TaskDecl has every field Task read from TOML. The flags an overlay may set or leave alone (hide, raw, raw_args, interactive, quiet, silent) are Options, so from_decl records which ones the table set. That replaces TaskBoolPresenceMapAccess, which wrapped the MapAccess to watch for those keys. - from_decl keeps config_precedence at 0, what #[serde(skip)] gave a table-form task, rather than Task::default()'s usize::MAX. Loading reassigns it either way. String and array shorthand tasks are still built from Task::default(), as before. - TaskTemplate moves to mise-config with G7_TEXT. Its merge logic is impl Task and stays in mise. - TaskConfig moves to mise-config. - [deps] parses into mise_config::deps::{DepsDecl, DepsProviderDecl}. mise's DepsConfig and DepsProviderConfig keep their shape and the template context they render with, and are built from the declaration where that context is attached. No behavior change; schema/mise.json is unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M55SG8MHYPWNYR5301898GK3

$defs/task_props, task_template and task_config in schema/mise.json, and so schema/mise-task.json, are now generated from mise-config's task types. The $defs names stay the same, and both files are semantically unchanged; the diff is key order. - task_props is derived from TaskDecl. Fields with one shape derive their schema, with the doc comment as description. Fields whose parser takes several shapes (alias, depends, run, outputs, tools, silent, ...) take it from a function in task/schema.rs, next to the types. `args` and `global` stay out of the schema as before: mise sets them while loading. - task_template is task_props with every key a template cannot set turned off. That list comes from TaskTemplate's parser: the keys it does not read, plus `secrets`, which it reads only to reject. - task_config is derived from TaskConfig. - task, task_dependency_item, task_dependency_table, task_run_entry and task_watch are hand-written in task/schema.rs. - The empty-default transform also drops `""`. TaskDecl's and TaskConfig's fields are reordered to match the schema; serde does not depend on field order.

[tool_alias] (and the deprecated [alias]), min_version and [monorepo] are now declared in mise-config, and their part of schema/mise.json is generated from those types. - Alias and MinVersionSpec move with their parsers. Their schemas (tool_alias_entry, tool_alias_versions and the min_version property) are hand-written JsonSchema impls next to the parsers, because both accept a string or a table. - MonorepoConfig and WorkspaceProjectOverride derive theirs. The only schema change is `"default": false` on a project override's `remove`. - The deprecation handler moves from mise_config::env to a crate-level mise_config::deprecation, with a ToolVersionAliases variant for the flat alias spelling. mise registers it once, in config_file, and still warns with the same ids, versions and messages. - mise-config depends on `versions`, for MinVersionSpec. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M55Z4MQ2D5T6CSTN15PZRJPV

mise-config now declares what `[tools]` holds, and the [tools] part of schema/mise.json lives next to that declaration. - ToolsDecl = IndexMap<String, ToolSpecList> is the declaration: each key as written, each value a version string, a table, or a list of them. ToolSpec keeps the request unrendered and the table's options raw; None marks the string form, which mise treats differently. - ToolSpecList is generic over its element. mise parses ToolSpecList<MiseTomlTool>, and MiseTomlTool checks its options inside its own visitor, so an invalid option still fails with the span of that tool's table, even inside a list. - mise still keys MiseToml's tools by BackendArg and builds ToolRequest from it, so `node`, `nodejs` and `"node[opts]"` still collapse into one entry. - CoreToolOptions moves to mise-config as data. EnvValue moves with it, and mise-util re-exports it; the [env] parser now uses it in place of its private copy. Option checking stays in mise, since `auto_update` reads settings. - /properties/tools and the 52 tool $defs (tool, tool_options, and the per-backend tool_<backend> and tool_<backend>_options entries) are hand-written in tools/schema.rs: the backend is picked by key pattern, which a derive on the raw options cannot express. They moved unchanged; rendering leaves schema/mise.json byte for byte the same. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Entire-Checkpoint: 01M560R7MVNFY29Y355KGASMRR

MiseTomlDecl in mise-config names every top-level mise.toml key, with its description and schema. mise-config now writes schema/mise.json, mise-task.json and miserc.json itself, including the [settings] part from settings.toml, so xtasks/render/schema.ts and its stitching are gone. The hand-written parts of mise.json moved next to their types: [hooks] (whose declaration types move into mise-config), [deps], [dotfiles], [daemons], [secrets] and the raw [bootstrap] values. The schemas are unchanged apart from key order: $defs are now sorted by name. A new test checks that MiseToml reads exactly the keys the schema lists.

…down copy The page rendered all 2,663 keys up front: 970 KB of HTML and 580 KB of page JavaScript. It now renders each section and the keys directly in it, loads the rest after the page shows, and opens a key on click, from a link, or when a filter matches below it. The filter searches names and descriptions and is kept in the URL. A key with the same keys as another now points at it ("same keys as tools.<github:…>") instead of repeating them, which takes the reference from 2,663 keys to 1,074. The tools options under tasks, task templates and monorepo task defaults were most of the repetition. The docs build also writes the reference as plain Markdown for readers that do not run scripts: configuration/reference.md, an index, and one file per section under configuration/reference/. llms.txt lists it.

https://entire.io/gh/jdx/mise/trails/858  New command, `mise config explain [KEY]`. It describes each key a mise TOML file sets, using the descriptions from the mise.toml schema, and flags keys mise doesn't read. ```toml [tools] node = "22" [settings] experimantal = true [tasks.build] run = "cargo build" ``` ``` $ mise config explain ~/src/app/mise.toml 1 tools dev tools to use 2 tools.node a version of the tool, or a table with its version and options 4 settings mise settings 5 settings.experimantal not a key mise reads; did you mean experimental? 7 tasks task runner tasks 7 tasks.build a task: a script, a list of scripts and task references, or a table 8 tasks.build.run script to run ``` - **Unknown and deprecated keys:** an unknown key is marked, with the known key it most likely meant. A deprecated key is marked "deprecated". - **Narrowing:** `mise config explain tasks` shows only the keys under `[tasks]`. - **JSON:** `--json` prints each key's path, line, description, deprecation and suggestion. - **Choosing a file:** like `mise config get`, it reads the highest-precedence loaded TOML file, or the one picked with `--file`, `--global`, `--system` or `--override`. - **Broken files:** it reads the file as plain TOML, so it also works on a config mise refuses to load. The `[tasks]` and `[tools]` entry definitions gain a description in `schema/mise.json`, so a task or tool entry is described as a whole rather than by one of its shapes. Editors show the same text on hover. Not covered yet: explaining which config file's value wins when several layers set the same key. ## Validation - New e2e test `cli/test_config_explain`. - `command_effects` classifies the command as read-only. - `mise.usage.kdl`, `docs/cli`, the man page and `cli_commands.ts` are regenerated. The diff is only the new command. - `cargo +1.95 clippy --workspace --all-features --all-targets -- -D warnings` - The schema freshness and conformance tests.

docs(schema): keep the task-schema render note with its sentence

03ea78b

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

fix(schema): make the render:schema script executable

44a96ba

mise skips xtasks scripts that are not executable, so render:schema dropped out of the task list. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

fix(schema): compare each key once in the freshness test

66649d4

Walking both maps' keys compared every shared key twice, doubling the work at each level of nesting: 1.8s, over CI's 1s test ceiling. It now takes 0.05s. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
