What's going on with Goose? Seems like Block donated it to some consortium; I can't tell if that's a good signal or a bad one. With so many "contenders", if Goose is going into maintenance mode it'd be helpful to know.

Goose is alive and well. It was indeed donated to Linux Foundation, and earlier this year the full-time team of core developers moved over to Spiral. The new focus is on GDK, goose development kit. Same great goose capabilities now being packaged for anyone to easily build their own customized agentic applications.

Did something change with it for depth of integration? Goose has been able to use local models via OpenAI compatible endpoints for at least a year

Its docs have zero support
