Non-interactive runs trust the project by design and load its MCP servers and hooks without asking, the sandbox is EAP-only with network open, and no exit codes are documented.\n\n**mini-swe-agent.** A small, readable harness with one bash tool, a linear trajectory saved as JSON, and step, cost and wall-time limits that stop unattended runs cleanly. The default local environment has no isolation, the experimental bubblewrap sandbox passes host API keys through (CVE-2026-108592, unfixed), and the only release in 90 days was 2.4.6 on 23 July 2026.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Junie CLI\n\n1. Run headless only in repositories you trust. One-shot and piped runs load the project's MCP servers, hooks and skills without asking\n2. Set `JUNIE_API_KEY` (from junie.jetbrains.com/cli) or a provider key such as `JUNIE_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` in CI. The default sign-in opens a browser\n3. Add `--output-format json` or `--json-output-file` to parse results. Check the output, since exit codes aren't documented\n4. Pass `--share-anonymous-statistics false` if no usage statistics may leave the runner\n5. Pin a build with `--use-version` and `--skip-update-check`. The CLI updates itself on start by default\n\n### mini-swe-agent\n\n1. Run with `-y --exit-immediately` for unattended use. Without `--exit-immediately` it waits for input when the agent finishes\n2. Set `MSWEA_CONFIGURED=true` and `MSWEA_MODEL_NAME` first, or the first run stops at an interactive setup prompt\n3. Read `info.exit_status` in the `-o` trajectory file. A run that hits its limits still exits normally\n4. For untrusted repositories use `-c mini.yaml -c environment.environment_class=docker -c environment.image=\u003cimage\u003e`. The local and bubblewrap environments both expose host variables\n5. Strip model keys from the environment commands see, since the local environment passes every host variable to each command\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Junie CLI or mini-swe-agent?\n\nmini-swe-agent scores 56.7 (C) on agent readiness against Junie CLI's 53.2 (D), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories. Junie CLI leads on maintenance \u0026 community and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Are Junie CLI and mini-swe-agent open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for Junie CLI. mini-swe-agent is open source (MIT).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/junie-vs-mini-swe-agent.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/junie-vs-mini-swe-agent.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"junie\", \"b\": \"mini-swe-agent\"}`.
