What specific problem does this solve?

Who is affected: All users who use codebase indexing features in Roo Code

When this happens: When users enable codebase indexing to improve AI context and code understanding

Current behavior: Users are limited to existing embedding providers, which may have suboptimal performance or cost considerations for embedding generation

Expected behavior: Users should have access to Mistral's codestral-embed model as an embedding provider option, which offers superior benchmark performance and is available at no cost

Impact:

  • Performance: Mistral's codestral-embed model shows significantly higher performance in embedding benchmarks compared to current options
  • Cost efficiency: The model is free to use, reducing operational costs for users and the platform
  • Quality: Better embeddings lead to more accurate code context and improved AI responses for code-related tasks
  • Competitive advantage: Keeping up with state-of-the-art embedding models ensures Roo Code remains competitive

Additional context (optional)

  • API Endpoint: Mistral provides an OpenAI-compatible API at https://api.mistral.ai/v1
  • Model: codestral-embed
  • Implementation reference: Similar to how Gemini was implemented for codebase indexing
  • Benchmark data: Mistral's codestral-embed shows superior performance metrics in code understanding tasks
  • Cost benefit: Free tier availability makes this an attractive option for users

This enhancement would provide users with a high-performance, cost-effective embedding option that could significantly improve their codebase indexing experience while reducing costs.
