Using an AI agent to migrate a codebase sounds great in theory, but in practice it can feel like an orchestrated lie.
Rizel Scarlett breaks down the messy, real steps she used to prompt goose to migrate a React and Node app to Next.js.

We’re not here to impress AI with perfect prompts.
It should be impressing us by responding to what we actually intend to do.
If you’re building agentic experiences, it’s time to design for intent, not input.

MCP-UI changes the game!
Instead of typing prompt after prompt, developers can now build real, interactive UIs— all running inside Goose.
We’ll show you how it works, how you can make your own, and why it’s such a big deal.

Goose is free. But the most performant LLMs aren’t.
We didn’t want people paying out of pocket just to try Goose at meetups. So, Rizel Scarlett built a credit system using Open Router's provisioning API.

What if your AI agent could read real GitHub docs—not hallucinate them?
With the GitMCP extension Goose can:
✅ Pull live docs from any public repo
✅ Extract real setup + usage patterns
✅ Scaffold smarter, faster

June 2025 Community All-Stars ⭐
It's time to celebrate all contributors who’ve helped make goose better, because every single contribution is important! 🏆
Check it out: https://block.github.io/goose/community https://blossom.primal.net/43dba7f195947160c3618165903304894c22ebb078a3b0b00c527ed592614a2a.mp4
Our engineers discovered USB barcode scanners were causing Android apps to freeze due to a garbage collection issue. Instead of just patching our own apps, we dug deep, found the root cause, and contributed the fix upstream to Android 16.
The result? 40% improvement in our P90 latency + a fix that benefits the entire Android ecosystem.
This is why we contribute to open source - when we make platforms better, everyone wins. 🚀
