What is codename goose?

codename goose is an open-source AI agent that runs locally on your machine. Whether you're a developer, designer, or just want to automate tasks, Goose can help. With Model Context Protocol (MCP), it connects to tools like Figma, Google Drive, and Home Assistant, making automation seamless.

What is Model Context Protocol (MCP)?

MCP is an open standard developed by Anthropic (the company behind Claude) that allows AI to securely interact with external apps, providing real-time context. Instead of just responding to prompts, codename goose can work with your files, projects, and data across different tools.
