<p>This tutorial covers advanced usage patterns for the Cognee extension with Goose, including automated memory management, knowledge graph optimization, and various integration strategies.</p>

|
||
<p>While the basic <a href="/goose/docs/mcp/cognee-mcp">Cognee MCP setup</a> gets you started, this tutorial explores how to make Goose autonomously use the knowledge graph and optimize your workflow.</p>

|
||
<p>Cognee creates a structured knowledge graph that:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Interconnects conversations, documents, images, and audio transcriptions</li>
|
||
<li>Supports over 30 data sources</li>
|
||
<li>Replaces traditional RAG systems with dynamic relationship mapping</li>
|
||
<li>Enables complex multi-hop reasoning</li>
|

</ul>

<p>Understanding Cognee's search types is crucial for effective usage:</p>
