Run a configurable AI agent with your own models and tools

What is goose?

goose is an open-source agent for people who want a model to work with tools on their own computer. Developers can use its desktop application or command line to carry out coding tasks, while the same agent also supports research, writing and data work. MCP extensions connect the conversation to external systems; installing an extension therefore changes what the agent can access and do. Reusable skills supply task instructions, and recipes package a workflow with its configuration so it can be shared or run again. The software runs locally, but the selected model provider determines where inference happens and whether usage incurs separate charges. It suits users willing to configure a provider and review tool permissions rather than expecting a fully managed service.

An extensible desktop and terminal agent that combines a chosen model with MCP tools, reusable skills and repeatable workflow recipes.

Capabilities and use cases

MCP extensions

Connect the agent to external tools and data through Model Context Protocol extensions, selecting the integrations needed for the task.

Reusable agent skills

Load task-specific instructions and supporting resources from skills instead of repeating a detailed procedure in every conversation.

Workflow recipes

Package instructions, extensions and parameters as portable YAML workflows that colleagues can share and run again.
