Everyone's buying Mac Minis to run OpenClaw. @blackgirlbytes.bsky.social built her own version using goose as the backend instead. She used the RPI method to stop the agent from hallucinating non-existent APIs and wrote about it: block.github.io/goose/blog/2026/02/06/rpi-openclaw-alternative

Shout out to @blackgirlbytes.bsky.social for this, I had heard other people explain the same thing in tweets/bleets but I wanted a more comprehensive explanation to send 🤘

If Day 1 was good, Day 2 is gonna blow your mind 🤯 Feb 3 with @blackgirlbytes.bsky.social: the advanced stuff. Multi-agent workflows, MCP servers, production patterns. What are you waiting for? Let's go 👇

Mastering Goose workshop w/ @torc.dev @blackgirlbytes.bsky.social Time: 1pm Today! Loc: luma.com/7yn5w6gi I've been working w/ Goose lately, combining it with Ollama. I'm a huge fan of Gemini CLI, however this tool is quickly becoming a go to for me. #AI #GooseAI #Torc

Hey y'all. Propel is hiring some engineers this year. If you like Vue (or aren't afraid to learn) and you want to help improve the lives of low-income Americans, check the roles out: job-boards.greenhouse.io/propel If you have a question, ask in a reply so everyone benefits.

i am both an extreme supporter and skeptic of AI agents lolol.

this is a really good article www.colincornaby.me/2025/08/in-t...

I understand the devs who mourn the loss of their identities because agents write code pretty well now. This is your craft. You trained for this. But no one said you have to stop writing code to use agents. Chefs still cook. They just use microwaves and air fryers too.

We brought the Ralph Wiggum loop to goose with a multi-model approach where one model does the work and a second model reviews it. Tutorial 👇 https://block.github.io/goose/docs/tutorials/ralph-loop

my tutorial is liiive. i feel mad smart cuz i added a little pizzaz to the ralph loop and took a multi-model approach

I just published a tutorial on how to build your first MCP App. This is a special kind of MCP server that allows your agent to render an interactive UI. block.github.io/goose/docs/t...

yegge emerges from a bush menacingly

talk to your kids about orchestration, before someone else does

I turn around for two seconds and he’s talking about OpenStack?! Oh no

My baby said he wants to start playing with Docker. They grow up so fast 🥹

Join us Jan 12 11:00 ET/17:00 CET for a special LIVE podcast episode featuring @blackgirlbytes.bsky.social, @withenoughcoffee.com, @techtalkingmom.bsky.social, @didiviking.bsky.social as they talk about being working moms in tech. www.youtube.com/live/cH09rx5...

Such a great post by @blackgirlbytes.bsky.social about a GitHub action you can use to delegate fixes to an agent. dev.to/goose_oss/ho...

Text responses are cute, but can your agent respond with interfaces? goose can 💅 MCP Apps support is live, aligned with the emerging MCP spec. https://block.github.io/goose/blog/2026/01/06/mcp-apps

I automated my entire Genuary. The art, the posts, even this caption... all generated by my AI agent, goose. This is my Genuary day 5 submission: "Write Genuary" #genuary #genuary5

Do agents have the ability to learn your taste? This post explores how @blackgirlbytes.bsky.social used Agent Skills to encode design preferences and where human judgment still mattered most. https://block.github.io/goose/blog/2026/01/04/how-i-taught-my-agent-my-design-taste

Can you automate taste? Not really. But I did realize I developed my taste through pattern recognition. Looking at what’s popular, what’s overdone, and what resonates. So I taught goose my preferences, so I could have output I actually liked block.github.io/goose/blog/2...

This is not me posting in real time! I wrote and scheduled this post with goose. It's my submission for Genuary day 4: "Lowres" The entire process is automated from end to end using goose recipes, Agent skills, shell scripts, and github actions. #genuary #genuary4

i appreciate how far AI has come..think about it..in 2022, I was using GitHub Copilot to autocomplete P5.js to make a janky looking house.

okay that's all my posts for this morning. i just wanted to see if the scheduling functionality would work, and I wanted to catch up on genuary. I have one going out for this afternoon. Stay tuned!!! :D and check out my repo to see the transcripts I had with my agent

This is not me posting in real time! I wrote and scheduled this post with goose. It's my submission for Genuary day 3: "Fibonacci forever" The entire process is automated from end to end using goose recipes, Agent skills, shell scripts, and github actions. #genuary #genuary3

This is not me posting in real time! I wrote and scheduled this post with goose. It's my submission for Genuary day 2: "Twelve principles of animation" The entire process is automated from end to end using goose recipes, Agent skills, shell scripts, and github actions. #genuary #genuary2

apologies in advance..i will be posting more of these. im catching up with the genuary challenge. I'm lowkey using this to help me learn agentic coding better. today..you will see: - day 1 - day 2 - day 3 later on today.. - day 4 from me. And then in the future you will see one post per day.

This is not me posting in real time! I wrote and scheduled this post with goose. It's my submission for Genuary day 1: "One color, one shape" The entire process is automated from end to end using goose recipes, Agent skills, shell scripts, and github actions.

“Catch up or get left behind.” Is the most overwhelming, preachy reason that devs should use AI. It’s time for a mindset shift. You’re not behind in AI. You’re right on time.

“[…] like this: […] you have a package delivery system where you automatically open and process every package that arrives. CVE-2025-55182 was like someone figuring out they could put a bomb inside a package, and your system would […] unpack and activate it without checking what was inside […].”

Haven't been in reactland for a hot minute but it's always good to keep up with the major vulnerabilities

I've been ignoring the posts and warnings about React2Shell. I wrote my cautionary tale. dev.to/blackgirlbyt...

If CEOs can make crazy predictions about AI, so can I 😅 dev.to/blackgirlbyt...

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

Open source maintenance is a marathon that never stops. We put goose to work on its own backlog by embedding it into a GitHub Action that turns issues into draft PRs. I wrote about how this improved my day to day as a maintainer. dev.to/blockopensou...

ICYMI: Blogs I wrote lately about MCP and for #blogvent

Code Mode 🤝 MCP These are getting compared a lot lately, and they shouldn’t be. We wrote this post to clear up the confusion, and how it works within goose 👇 https://block.github.io/goose/blog/2025/12/21/code-mode-doesnt-replace-mcp

We just shipped code mode, so goose can generate and execute code against MCP tools instead of loading every schema into context. This means fewer tokens, better control, and more scalable workflows. https://block.github.io/goose/blog/2025/12/15/code-mode-mcp

MCP Sampling is BLEEDING EDGE. Check out my demo of it..this is done in a more educational/fun way, but imagine how you can apply this to code.

Bluesky does not like my AI posts 😂

For Day 12, we're going to use MCP sampling to help us choose the Winter Festival's mascot! adventofai.dev/challenges/12

POV: You delegate work to subagents and they actually deliver. Day 11's solution for Advent of AI is live. It's not too late to join the fun. Link in the 🧵

Day 11's challenge : adventofai.dev/challenges/11

If (you want smarter AI workflows) { try this }! For Day 10's Advent of AI challenge, we learned how to add conditionals statements to our reusable workflows. Check out today's solution video to see how we helped Elena dynamically generate festival posters using if/then logic.

Devs write off AI agents because they make too many careless changes..and it's hard to rollback. We commit early and often to create checkpoints for safe rollbacks and clean collaboration, so why not enforce the same discipline on our agents?

goose is migrating to a new home 🎉 Block, Anthropic, and OpenAI have founded the Agentic AI Foundation This brings together goose, MCP, and AGENTS․md under the Linux Foundation. Time to fly in formation. The flock just got a lot bigger. block.xyz/inside/block...
