Mistral AI has launched Devstral 2, a powerful new coding model family, alongside the Mistral Vibe CLI for end-to-end automation. Devstral 2, a 123B parameter model, achieved 72.2% on SWE-bench Verified, surpassing many larger models despite being up to 8x smaller than competitors. While Devstral 2 has a modified MIT license limiting use for companies over $20M monthly revenue, the smaller Devstral Small 2 (24B parameters) is open-source under Apache 2.0, offering a laptop-friendly, offline-capable solution with 68.0% on SWE-bench. This dual release with a native CLI empowers developers with advanced, cost-effective, and locally deployable AI for complex software engineering tasks.
