Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

Enabling Goose Agents to Collaborate

Protocol:

An operational procedure for agents to follow, expressed in two flavors:

  • Natural Language: Streamlined, human-readable instructions about how to behave and use the tools.
  • Mermaid Markdown: A concise flowchart for expected behavior, described in an efficient text format.

Extension:

Goose extension (MCP Server) that provides tools for the agents to use for tasks and messaging.

  • Agent Registration: Facilitates agent registration with unique ID assignments and message sending.
  • Message Management: Stores messages from agents, making them available for retrieval.
  • Task Management: Project Coordinator role creates and assigns tasks and roles to other agents.
  • Agent Waiting: Allows connected agents to wait for a specified period before taking another action.
  • Remote Server: With an MCP Proxy, multiple agents can connect to the same MCP server, necessary for collaboration.

Work in Progress

  • Current focus is on Goose CLI integration, so you must have it installed.
  • Other agent platforms could integrate with this project easily.
  • The protocol and the MCP server are not tightly coupled to goose, only the npm agent: scripts and in the protocol preamble.

NEW: Behavioral Control with Mermaid markdown!

  • Agent protocol expressed as a [mermaid chart](https://mermaid.live/edit#pako:eNp1VG1v2jAQisnf-kX2hVKAkRTJwSbhjRa1FJVW0CVl5gQQWxmO3Rdynf2YkTyrp8iM5399w992IXJBIxIwFJJN2tYT5ecMDvXlOpQtfwvn5NdyxJFWaydAJQBPG9cef8sO1FpAwDZPxsgTXLgY4ZihlKWezUVjLFhblUmIImI0QVyKPnC14omajYaTTPSsmCvSaSQaUWzS1agROpTYxtdAX2_EK8zpht3ukbQRQOwNa4UQG-Ce8TiAswnQDLh4NtHRdLZ8N9p3pl7hmxA7x9SFtjSNIfzMTclbFOtyjN46jNYs2kyZUtg0FdoTSBa5BmaVpcr9xtv

Questions

What is the GooseTeam MCP server?

Look, a flock of geese! An MCP server and protocol for Goose agent collaboration.

What tools does GooseTeam expose?

12 in total: 9 read-only, 2 that write, and 1 that can delete or overwrite (clear_messages). Every one is listed on this page with its risk.

Is GooseTeam safe to connect to an agent?

The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (88/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B. Separately from the audit: 1 of its tools can destroy data, so scope the token you give it to what you actually need.

What credentials does GooseTeam need?

No credential environment variables were found in its source, so it appears to need none.

How does GooseTeam run?

It speaks sse, stdio and streamable-http, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on npm as goose-team at 0.3.0.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (7635ff21d77b), read on 2026-10-07. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
