An unofficial desktop companion for mise
Every tool mise manages, laid out in one window.
powermise is a companion app for mise-en-place. Browse 1,000+ tools, install the version you want, keep everything up to date, and check your setup’s health — and every click shows the exact mise command it runs.
curl -fsSL https://powermise.pages.dev/install.sh | shpowermise isn’t code-signed yet, so the first launch of a downloaded installer takes one extra step.How to open it

Live demo of the powermise app
Start here.
A checklist that ticks itself off as you go, and how your tools, projects, and setup stand — at a glance.
Everything mise manages, at a glance.
The version you use, where it’s set, and what has an update — without running a single command.
1,000+ tools, most popular first.
The whole mise registry, ranked by what developers actually install and sorted into categories — plus everyday utilities like wget and htop.
Pick a version. Click Install.
powermise shows the exact command first, then streams mise’s output as it runs. Try it — the demo really installs (pretend) deno.
Bring over what you already have.
Versions from nvm and pyenv, Homebrew and your Brewfile, winget and Scoop, global npm packages — pick what to keep, try a dry run, and import.
Your projects’ tools, tasks, and env.
Run a task from a form built from its arguments, see every variable mise sets — secrets hidden — and review what a folder does before you trust it.
Up to date, even past your pins.
See everything newer than what you have, and upgrade one tool or all of them. mise updates your config to match.
Know your setup is healthy.
mise doctor in plain language: your version, shell activation, and anything that needs attention — with the fix.
And when you want AI agents…
Pick Claude, Codex, Gemini, and more. powermise installs everything they need through mise.
Nothing hidden
Every click is a mise command you can read.
Before anything changes, powermise shows the exact command it will run — and streams mise’s own output while it works. Copy any of them into a terminal. Start in the app, end up fluent in mise.

How it works
A window onto mise, not a replacement for it.
- 01
mise stays in charge
powermise reads mise’s own output and changes things only by running mise. It never edits your mise config files behind your back.
- 02
Nothing trusted for you
mise asks before it trusts a project’s config. So does powermise — every time, with what that config would run.
- 03
Your terminal keeps working
There’s no second source of truth. Anything you do in the app, you can see, repeat, or undo with mise directly.
Also inside: AI Setups
Set up AI coding agents in one step.
Pick the agents you want and powermise installs everything they need through mise — the CLI, the right runtimes, and optional desktop apps — with a preview of every change first.
Everything in its place, before you start cooking.
powermise is free, open source, and built on the mise you already trust. It’s an independent project — not made by the mise team.
