# Using Mistral AI With Roo Code

Roo Code supports accessing models through the Mistral AI API, including both standard Mistral models and the code-specialized Codestral model.

**Website:** [https://mistral.ai/](https://mistral.ai/)

## Getting an API Key

1.  **Sign Up/Sign In:** Go to the [Mistral Platform](https://console.mistral.ai/). Create an account or sign in.  You may need to go through a verification process.
2.  **Create an API Key:**  
    - [La Plateforme API Key](https://console.mistral.ai/api-keys/) and/or 
    - [Codestral API Key](https://console.mistral.ai/codestral)

## Supported Models

Roo Code supports the following Mistral models:

| Model ID               | Model Default Temperature | Function Calling | Vision / Image support |
|------------------------|-------------------------|------------------|--------|
| codestral-latest      | 0.3                     | ✅               | ❌      |
| mistral-large-latest  | 0.7                     | ✅               | ❌      |
| ministral-8b-latest   | 0.3                     | ✅               | ❌      |
| ministral-3b-latest   | 0.3                     | ✅               | ❌      |
| mistral-small-latest  | 0.3                     | ✅               | ❌      |
| pixtral-large-latest  | 0.7                     | ✅               | ✅      |
The default model temperature in Roo Code is 0.0, so you should consider experimenting with [temperature adjustments](/features/model-temperature)!

**Note:**  Model availability and specifications may change.
Refer to the [Mistral AI documentation](https://docs.mistral.ai/api/) and [Mistral Model Overview](https://docs.mistral.ai/getting-started/models/models_overview/) for the latest information.

## Configuration in Roo Code

1.  **Open Roo Code Settings:** Click the gear icon (<Codicon name="gear" />) in the Roo Code panel.
2.  **Select Provider:** Choose "Mistral" from the "API Provider" dropdown.
3.  **Enter API Key:** Paste your Mistral API key into the "Mistral API Key" field if you're using a `mistral` model.  If you intend to use `codestral-latest`, see the "Codestral" section below.
4.  **Select Model:** Choose your desired model from the "Model" dropdown. 

## Using Codestral

[Codestral](https://docs.mistral.ai/capabilities/code_generation/) is a model specifically designed for code generation and interaction. 
Only for Codestral you could use different endpoints (Default: codestral.mistral.ai). 
For the La Platforme API Key change the **Codestral Base Url** to: https://api.mistral.ai 

To use Codestral:

1.  **Select "Mistral" as the API Provider.**
2.  **Select a Codestral Model**
3.  **Enter your Codestral (codestral.mistral.ai) or La Plateforme (api.mistral.ai) API Key.**
