Goose v1.53.0 Adds Model Discovery, Resizable PiP, Quoting, and More
The latest Goose release (v1.53.0) provides new usability features, improved model support, and developer enhancements such as a resizable picture-in-picture window, live model metadata, and CLI additions.
What changed?
Goose v1.53.0 introduces several new features and improvements: - Resizable Picture-in-Picture (PiP) window for MCP Apps - Ability to fetch live model metadata from models.dev, with a fallback to bundled data - Quoting action allows appending selected conversation text to the composer - Lean ACP-only Goose binary for minimized deployments - Model discovery API for the GDK Provider - Added Meta Muse Code provider support - Support for new models: Opus 5.5, GPT-6-sol, GPT-6-luna - CLI improvements: session rename command, display working directory for session removal - GDK agent loop now runs on wasm32
Why does it matter to an everyday developer?
These changes bring both usability and extensibility benefits for developers who use or build on the Goose platform: - The resizable PiP window improves the multi-tasking experience in MCP Apps, letting developers better adjust their workflows. - Live model metadata ensures access to the latest available model information without requiring full updates, making builds and deployments more robust against upstream changes. - The quoting action streamlines communication and collaboration by simplifying reference to existing conversation snippets. - The new model and provider support (Meta Muse Code, Opus 5.5, GPT-6-sol, GPT-6-luna) gives developers more flexibility in choosing advanced AI models. - CLI enhancements (session rename, working directory display) reduce friction in session management, improving automation and scripting workflows. - The ACP-only binary and wasm32 compatibility enable lightweight and cross-platform (including web) deployments.
What can the developer do now?
- Update to Goose v1.53.0 to take advantage of improved UI, CLI, and model access features.
- Resize the PiP window in MCP Apps to optimize productivity.
