The outcome

Produce a decision-ready brief whose evidence, uncertainty, and reasoning can be audited.

Vibe by Mistral AI is a unified AI agent for productivity, coding, and chat. Multilingual assistance, structured research, project-based knowledge work, custom agents, connected tools, and coding tasks. This guide narrows that broad capability into one repeatable outcome, with checkpoints that keep the source material and your judgment in the loop.

Before you begin

Set the boundary before the tool starts.

Choose one real task, identify who will use the result, and decide what evidence or test will make the result acceptable. Gather only the source material needed for that task. If the work contains confidential, personal, regulated, or client-owned information, confirm that the platform and account are approved before sharing it.

Troiana principle

AI should make the work easier to inspect. If the workflow removes the source, the owner, or the review step, redesign the workflow.

Step by step

A workflow you can repeat.

  1. 01

    State the decision, audience, scope, cutoff date, geography, and evidence threshold.

  2. 02

    Use a dedicated Project and attach only relevant authorized files or Library material.

  3. 03

    Ask Vibe Work to clarify assumptions, plan the research, and prioritize primary and recent sources.

  4. 04

    Require separate sections for findings, conflicting evidence, inference, risk, and unanswered questions.

  5. 05

    Open every consequential citation and correct weak claims before exporting or circulating the brief.

Working standard

What good use looks like.

  • Keep one research question per brief.
  • Verify citations at the source.
  • Record the research cutoff date.

Vibe modes and connectors can access different data and tools. Apply least privilege, understand workspace governance and retention, and verify source-backed claims and external actions.
