Website | Blog

MiMoCode is a terminal-native AI coding assistant. It can read and write code, run commands, manage Git, and use a persistent memory system to keep a deep understanding of your project across sessions while continuously improving itself.

MiMoCode supports connecting to any mainstream LLM provider API.

Xiaomi MiMo Desktop

Xiaomi MiMo Desktop is built for real-world work: one conversation can handle office work, design, coding, and multimodal creation, while multiple conversations can divide work and collaborate. The desktop app is powered by MiMo Code as its core engine, bringing its terminal-native intelligence to desktop workflows.

• Smart orchestration: evaluates task type and cost, then dynamically selects models, frameworks, and tools; complex tasks can run across multiple agents in parallel.
• Continuous iteration: drag in files in multiple formats, create PPTs, webpages, 3D assets, and apps, preview and operate on results in-session, edit selected regions precisely, and roll back versions.
• Controlled long-task cost: routes between standard and flagship models, edits only the required regions, and supports up to 99% same-session and 95% cross-session cache hit rates.
• Browser control: opens webpages, retrieves information, fills forms, and checks key interactions after generating webpages.
• Computer control (international version only): reads the screen and operates mouse and keyboard across apps; Record & Replay lets you reuse recorded workflows with natural language.

Powered by the new MiMo-V2.6-Pro and MiMo-V2.6-Flash models.

MiMo Ecosystem

Beyond MiMoCode, Xiaomi MiMo models also work in other agents and coding tools like Cursor, Cline, and Zed.

awesome-mimo-agent collects setup guides for using MiMo in those tools — worth a look if you want to try MiMo elsewhere. Contributions welcome: open a PR to add your own setup.

Core Features

Multiple Agents

Press Tab to switch between primary agents. Build and Plan can switch at any time; other custom or special modes lock once the first message is sent.

Persistent Memory

Cross-session memory powered by SQLite FTS5 full-text search:

• Project memory (MEMORY.md) — persistent project knowledge, rules, and architecture decisions
• Session checkpoint (checkpoint.md) — structured state snapshots maintained automatically by the checkpoint-writer subagent
• Scratch notes (notes.md) — temporary note area for agents
• Task progress (tasks/<id>/progress.md) — per-task logs

Memory is injected automatically when a session resumes, so the agent does not need to relearn project context.

Intelligent Context Management

• Automatic checkpoints — decides when to save session state based on the model context window
• Context reconstruction — when context approaches the limit, rebuilds it from the latest checkpoint, project memory, task progress, and retained recent messages so the agent can continue the current task
• Budgeted injection — uses a token budget to control how much checkpoint, memory, and notes content enters context, with importance ranking
• Adjustable compaction point — /context-limit (or compaction.max_context) makes a model compact earlier than its own window, per model

{
  "compaction": {
    "max_context": {
      "openai/gpt-5.6": "272K", // token count, "300K", "1M", or "50%" of the window
      "anthropic/*": "300K" // wildcards allowed, longest pattern wins
    }
  }
}

Task Tracking

A tree-shaped task system (T1, T1.1, T1.2, …) that integrates automatically with the checkpoint system, so task progress is preserved when sessions resume.

Subagent System

The primary agent can create subagents on demand. Subagents share the current session context and can work in parallel, with lifecycle tracking, cancellation, and background execution.

Goal / Stop Condition

The /goal command sets a stopping condition for a session. When the agent tries to stop, an independent judge model evaluates the conversation to decide whether the condition is truly satisfied — preventing premature "optimistic stops" during autonomous work.

Compose Mode

Use the /compose-next skill to run an end-to-end feature delivery loop: a single self-contained contract covering grill → workspace → spec → implement → verify → review → finalize → finish, with feature documents at docs/compose/spec/<feature>.md under the workspace root. Do not combine it with plan mode.

Workflows

Workflows are deterministic JavaScript scripts that orchestrate multiple agents in a sandboxed runtime. Unlike agent conversations, workflows encode fixed phase sequences with bounded retries and automatic parallelization — fire-and-forget execution with no user interaction required.

MiMoCode ships with three built-in workflows:

Custom workflows: Place a .js file in .mimocode/workflows/ or .claude/workflows/ to define your own, or override a built-in by using the same name.

Builtin Skills

Skills are reusable instruction sets that teach agents how to handle specific tasks (e.g. generating PDFs, writing academic papers, searching arXiv). For a new task, MiMoCode searches available skills by exact name, localized alias, and BM25 relevance. High-confidence matches are loaded automatically; uncertain matches are ranked for the agent to assess. In the TUI, type / to browse the autocomplete list or invoke a skill directly with /<skill-name> — mentioning two or more skills in a single message auto-loads them and injects a multi-skill orchestration plan.

MiMoCode bundles the following builtin skills:

The skills claude-code, codex, and grok-build drive other agent CLIs from the terminal. They ship off by default; set MIMOCODE_ENABLE_AGENT_CLI_SKILLS=true to enable them. Other skills may still require task-specific tools described in their instructions.

Overriding a builtin skill: Create a skill with the same name under the project (.mimocode/skills/<name>/SKILL.md) or personal (for example ~/.config/mimocode/skills/<name>/SKILL.md) MiMoCode skills directory. Open-standard .agents/skills/ in the project and ~/.agents/skills/ are compatible discovery roots. User skills discovered later in the scan order override builtins with the same name.

Voice Input

Real-time streaming voice input powered by TenVAD and MiMo ASR. Activate with /voice, then speak — audio is segmented by pauses and transcribed incrementally into the input. Available for MiMo logged-in users. Requires sox (brew install sox on macOS, other platforms similar).

sudo apt install -y sox pulseaudio libasound2-plugins
export PULSE_SERVER=unix:/mnt/wslg/PulseServer

# Mac (local)
brew install pulseaudio
pulseaudio --load="module-native-protocol-tcp auth-ip-acl=127.0.0.1" --exit-idle-time=-1 --daemonize
# Add to ~/.ssh/config: RemoteForward 4713 127.0.0.1:4713

# Remote host
apt install -y pulseaudio pulseaudio-utils sox
export PULSE_SERVER=tcp:127.0.0.1:4713
# Verify: pactl info

{
  "voice": {
    "control_model": "openrouter/xiaomi/mimo-v2.6-flash"
  }
}

{
  "provider": {
    "internal": {
      "options": {
        "baseURL": "https://your-api-gateway.example.com/v1",
        "apiKey": "sk-..."
      },
      "models": {
        "xiaomi/mimo-v2.5-asr": { "name": "MiMo-V2.5-ASR" },
        "xiaomi/mimo-v2.6-flash": { "name": "MiMo-V2.6-Flash" }
      }
    }
  },
  "voice": {
    "asr_model": "internal/xiaomi/mimo-v2.5-asr",
    "control_model": "internal/xiaomi/mimo-v2.6-flash"
  }
}

Dream & Distill

• /dream — scans recent session traces, extracts persistent knowledge into project memory, and removes outdated entries
• /distill — discovers repeated manual workflows in recent work and packages high-confidence candidates into reusable skills, subagents, or commands

Configuration

MiMoCode uses JSON/JSONC config files with published JSON Schemas for autocompletion and validation.

File Locations

On Windows, XDG paths fall under %LOCALAPPDATA%\mimocode\. You can override all paths with MIMOCODE_HOME.

JSON Schemas

MiMoCode auto-injects a $schema field when it first loads your config, so your editor gets completions and validation out of the box:

{
  "json.schemaDownload.trustedDomains": {
    "https://mimo.xiaomi.com/": true
  }
}

Custom OpenAI-Compatible Endpoints

If your provider is not in the built-in model catalog, configure it directly with its base URL, API key, and model ID:

{
  "$schema": "https://mimo.xiaomi.com/mimocode/config.json",
  "model": "custom/MODEL_NAME",
  "provider": {
    "custom": {
      "name": "Custom",
      "npm": "@ai-sdk/openai-compatible",
      "only_configured_models": true,
      "models": {
        "MODEL_NAME": {
          "name": "MODEL_NAME"
        }
      },
      "options": {
        "baseURL": "BASE_URL",
        "apiKey": "API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

• Use the exact keys baseURL and apiKey.
• Preserve the base URL and model ID exactly as supplied. MiMoCode does not require a known provider and you should not add or remove /v1 unless the endpoint requires it.
• The key under models is the upstream model ID. Model IDs containing / are supported because only the first / in model separates the provider ID from the model ID.
• Replace custom with another unused lowercase provider ID if needed, and use the same ID in the top-level model value.
• @ai-sdk/openai-compatible is for OpenAI-compatible APIs. Services using a different wire protocol require their provider-specific adapter.

Put user-wide settings in ~/.config/mimocode/mimocode.jsonc (or mimocode.json in the same directory), or project-only settings in .mimocode/mimocode.jsonc (or .json), and merge them with any existing configuration. Because apiKey is stored as plaintext, keep the file readable only by your user and never commit it. Run mimo models or use the TUI model picker to verify the configured model.

To declare which input modalities a custom model supports (image, audio, video, PDF), run /modalities in the TUI — a multi-select dialog that persists the setting to config without hand-editing.

Key Options

• Provider and model selection
• Agent permissions and custom agents
• Checkpoint and memory behavior
• MCP server connections
• Keybindings and theme

Max Mode (parallel best-of-N reasoning with judge selection) can be enabled via experimental.maxMode in the config.

**This setting has known risks — use it at your own risk.** The temp directory is
world-writable and shared with every other process and user on the machine. Auto-allowing
it means the model can read and write there without confirmation, which widens your exposure
to predictable temp-path / symlink tricks (e.g. another process pre-creating `/tmp/foo` as a
symlink to a sensitive file). For that reason it is only recommended for single-user,
controlled environments or inside a container. Keep the allowlist as narrow as possible.

<details>
<summary><strong>Skipping permission prompts (<code>--dangerously-skip-permissions</code>)</strong></summary>

For trusted, disposable environments (containers, sandboxes, CI) you can auto-approve
everything the agent does instead of confirming each action:

```bash
# TUI — prompts once for an explicit confirmation on startup
mimo --dangerously-skip-permissions

# Headless
mimo run --dangerously-skip-permissions "your prompt"

# Or via environment variable (any surface)
MIMOCODE_DANGEROUSLY_SKIP_PERMISSIONS=1 mimo

Development

bun ci                   # Install dependencies (= bun install --frozen-lockfile)
bun run dev              # Run in development mode
bun run typecheck          # Type check

Relationship to OpenCode

MiMoCode is built as a fork of OpenCode. It keeps all core OpenCode capabilities (multiple providers, TUI, LSP, MCP, plugins) and adds persistent memory, intelligent context management, subagent orchestration, goal-driven autonomous loops, compose-next end-to-end delivery, Dynamic Workflows, and self-improvement via dream/distill.
