Mistral AI launches Devstral, powerful new open source SWE agent model that runs on laptops
Beyond performance and portability, its Apache 2.0 license offers a compelling proposition for commercial applications.
Unlike traditional LLMs designed for short-form code completions or isolated function generation, Devstral is optimized to act as a full software engineering agent—capable of understanding context across files, navigating large codebases, and resolving real-world issues. The momentum around Codestral helped establish Mistral as a key player in the coding-model ecosystem and laid the foundation for the development of Devstral—extending from fast completions to full-agent task execution. It supports deployment through all major open source platforms including Hugging Face, Ollama, Kaggle, LM Studio, and Unsloth, and works well with libraries such as vLLM, Transformers, and Mistral Inference.
