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**Mirror CLI.** Mirror CLI is Apache-2.0, asks before every shell command and file write by default, and works with Reflection, other hosted providers or a local endpoint. It is a one-day-old 0.1.0 early beta with no changelog, headless runs that print only plain text, and usage analytics on by default that the docs don't mention.\n\n## Before you call either\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### Mirror CLI\n\n1. Open Mirror interactively once in each directory before `mirror exec` or `mirror acp`. Both refuse to run until the usage and folder notices are accepted\n2. Pass `--approval-mode auto` to `mirror exec` only inside a container or VM. In manual mode, calls that need approval fail, and approval isn't a sandbox\n3. Set `--max-iterations` on unattended runs. Turns are unlimited by default\n4. Check the result with your own tests. `exec` returns 0 whenever it prints an answer\n5. Never share logs recorded with `--log-level debug`. The docs say they contain request headers with the API key\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, mini-swe-agent or Mirror CLI?\n\nmini-swe-agent scores 56.7 (C) on agent readiness against Mirror CLI's 54.2 (C), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories. Mirror CLI leads on schema \u0026 documentation and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Are mini-swe-agent and Mirror CLI open source?\n\nYes. mini-swe-agent is open source (MIT). Mirror CLI is open source (Apache-2.0).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mini-swe-agent-vs-reflection-mirror.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mini-swe-agent-vs-reflection-mirror.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"mini-swe-agent\", \"b\": \"reflection-mirror\"}`.
