Our newest project is taking flight: meet codename goose!

Today, we launched an open source on-machine AI Agent. It’s modular, works with your preferred LLM, and integrates seamlessly with developer tools and other software via MCP.

Introducing codename goose

Our CEO,

, is really good at vibe coding! Here's some lessons we learned from watching one of his sessions.

Jack Dorsey's Vibe Coding Tips

The goose grant program is now open! We're funding $100K grants to accelerate open source agentic AI Looking for innovative ideas in:

Multi-modal interactions

Agent autonomy

Self-improving systems

Real-world automation

Other novel ideas

Who said vibe coding has to be shallow? Community member Joe Euston built Goose Mentor Mode, an MCP server that helps you code and learn with Socratic prompts, guided questions, and progress tracking.

We've published Bitkey's source code since we launched a year ago, so anyone could see how it works and use it for non-commercial purposes. Now, we're moving to a fully open-source license. Tell us what you want to build with it. github.com/proto-at-block

We automated MCP testing with Goose recipes! Results:

72.5% fewer tokens

97.2% accuracy

CI/CD ready Best part? 3 complete recipes you can use TODAY

This seat map isn’t a website. Goose is rendering a seat map you can navigate inside your chat. Goose uses MCP-UI to make any MCP server feel like an interactive, clickable mini app.
