Run A Command With Specific Tool Version

Because I'm using mise to manage the versions of tools like Node, I can execute commands in the context of specific versions. Behind the scenes mise makes sure I have the necessary tool(s) installed at the desired version(s).

So, mise exec command will default to using the latest version of a tool if I haven't been more specific. At the time of this writing, for Node, that is v23.

$ mise exec node -- node --version
v23.9.0

To be specific I could specify the major version with node@23 like so:

mise exec node@23 -- npx repomix
Need to install the following packages:
repomix@0.2.39
Ok to proceed? (y) y

...

Or if I wanted to use a different, older version of Node, I could specify that as well. We can see it will first install that and then execute the command:

$ mise exec node@22 -- npx repomix
