\ud83d\udee0\ufe0f Meet MIDE \u2014 the primary development workstation for the mshell Ecosystem that brings together a polyglot editor, AI assistance, simultaneous LLM models, and the full mshell toolchain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u270f\ufe0f Editor & Built-in Tools:
\u2705 Multi-tab GtkSourceView editor \u2014 C, C++, Go, Rust, Python, Lua, Bash, mshell
\u2705 Syntax highlighting, line numbers \u2014 dark and light themes switchable on the fly
\u2705 LSP integration \u2014 code completion, go-to-definition, live diagnostics
\u2705 Language profiles (.prf) \u2014 compiler flags, libraries, pkg-config packages per project
\u2705 Run modes: Auto \/ Makefile \/ Custom command per language
\u2705 MD\/TXT Preview panel
\u2705 File tree \u2014 project navigation with Collapse\/Expand All
\u2705 Search in files \u2014 full project text search
\u2705 Two embedded terminals: mshell and bash \u2014 always available side by side
\u2705 Output and Tasks panels \u2014 script results and running jobs, alongside mshell and bash terminals
\u2705 mshell connected via IPC \u2014 inline LLM commands, urlcache, eval math, pythonexec, and direct launch of mshell built-in GUI applications (Studio, Notebook, edi) without leaving mide<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83e\udd16 AI:
\u2705 Explain \/ Fix \/ Generate \u2014 inline LLM actions on editor code, result inserted directly
\u2705 \ud83d\udcac AI Chat \u2014 separate chat window: free-form conversation, role loading (.role), prompt templates (.prm), context management
\u2705 Chat \u2192 editor: insert code block, run as script, send to edi as .md workflow \u2014 one click

\ud83d\udcc4 mshell Workflow:
\u2705 Workflows are plain Markdown (.md) files \u2014 human-readable and executable simultaneously, no separate build system
\u2705 Each fenced code block is a pipeline stage \u2014 any of 8 languages compiled and run automatically, data flows via named variables between stages
\u2705 LLM directives inline \u2014 up to 3 models as pipeline stages, async parallel execution with await barriers
\u2705 Full control flow: WHILE, FOREACH, LOOP, TRY\/CATCH, SPLIT\/MERGE, IF\/routing
\u2705 AI Chat generates workflows directly
\u2705 Specialized LLM roles: mshell expert (scripts + workflows), mshell workflow expert (polyglot pipelines), matplotlib expert (data visualization workflows) \u2014 loaded on demand from .role files
\u2705 Generative \u2192 Materialized: LLM-driven workflows convert to deterministic, LLM-free production artifacts
\u2705 Ideal for AI agents \u2014 the Intelligent Email Agent for IMAP\/POP3 servers is built on mide and mshell Workflow<\/p>\n\n\n\n
