We're looking for clear, compelling, and ambitious ideas that align with goose’s values: openness, modularity, and user empowerment.We'd love to see proposals that explore novel ways of interacting with AI agents. Here are just a few examples:
- New interaction paradigms: interact with goose through sketches (white boarding!), camera, voice interactions that pay attention to emotions or other multi-modal interactions
- Self-flying: increase autonomy by adding a long-running background mode, experimenting with new intermediate states, deep planning, and tools to support such operation
- Self improving agents: efforts like absolute zero, the godel Darwin machine and alphaevolve show how agents can improve themselves. Help goose rewrite its system prompt, its MCP servers and maybe its own code
- Automate everything: give goose tools to interact with the real world for home automation, robots or 3D printing.
Above all, we want to fund work that aligns with these values and demonstrates an open-source-first mindset
