v2026.4.0: Linked version fixes, monorepo task aliases, and Azure Developer CLI

on GitHub

This release fixes a panic when using mise link with aqua-backed tools, resolves bare task alias lookup in monorepo configurations, and handles a rustup check exit code that was incorrectly treated as an error.

Added

• Registry: azd (Azure Developer CLI) -- azd is now available as a short name in the mise registry, backed by aqua:Azure/azure-dev. Install with mise use -g azd@latest. #8828 by @rajeshkamal5050

Fixed

• Panic with linked versions on aqua-backed tools -- Running mise doctor, mise reshim, or any command that calls list_bin_paths on an aqua-backed tool with a linked version (created via mise link) would panic with a StripPrefixError. The root cause was that non-version link names like "brew" or "mylink" were passed to the aqua registry as version strings, where they unexpectedly matched semver constraints and produced absolute paths. Linked versions are now detected early and skip the aqua registry lookup entirely, returning install_path/bin directly. #8801 by @nikobockerman

• mise outdated failing for Rust -- rustup check returns exit code 100 when toolchain updates are available, which is normal behavior. Previously, mise treated this as a command failure, causing mise outdated to report an error for core:rust. The exit code is now handled correctly. #8832 by @shalk

• Bare task aliases not resolving in monorepo mode -- In a monorepo with config_roots configured, running mise run prl (a bare alias) would fail with "no task //:prl found", even though mise run //:prl worked. The issue was that expand_colon_task_syntax expanded bare aliases to //:prl, but the task loader then skipped config root discovery entirely. Both bare and prefixed alias forms now resolve correctly, and tab completion also works for monorepo-prefixed aliases. #8819 by @nkakouros

• Task help not shown for metadata-only usage specs -- When a task script defined #USAGE long_about, before_help, after_help, or examples without any arg or flag directives, mise run task --help would show the generic "This task does not accept any arguments" message instead of the usage-based help with the detailed description. #8824 by @nkakouros
