mise registry

List registry shorthand names and their backends

The registry maps short names to installation backends. For example, node uses the built-in Node backend. A tool may have multiple candidates; explicit backend syntax and configuration can override registry selection.

This is not a list of every tool mise can install. Use an explicit identifier such as github:owner/repo for a supported source without a registry shorthand.

Arguments

  • [NAME] — Show only the specified tool's full name

Flags

  • -b --backend <BACKEND> — Show only tools for this backend

  • --hide-aliased — Hide aliased tools

  • -J --json — Output in JSON format

  • --security — Include security features for each tool's backends in JSON output

    Requires --json. Security info is de-duplicated across all of a tool's backends. This can add noticeable time for large listings since each backend's security info is resolved individually.

  • -h --help — Print help

Examples

List the registry, then inspect node. The second command prints core:node.
