It's best to keep Goose updated by periodically running the installation steps again.

<h3>Option 2: Install via Homebrew</h3>
|
|
Homebrew downloads the [same app](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/master/Casks/b/block-goose.rb) but can take care of updates too.
|
|
```bash
|
|
brew install --cask block-goose
|
|
```

:::note Permissions
|
|
If you're on an Apple Mac M3 and the Goose desktop app shows no window on launch, check and update the following:
|
|
|
|
Ensure the `~/.config` directory has read and write access.
|
|
|
|
Goose needs this access to create the log directory and file. Once permissions are granted, the app should load correctly. For steps on how to do this, refer to the [Troubleshooting Guide](/docs/troubleshooting.md#macos-permission-issues)

wsl --install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Restart your computer if prompted.
|

3. Run the Goose installation script:
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -fsSL https://github.com/block/goose/releases/download/stable/download_cli.sh | bash

## Set LLM Provider
|
|
Goose works with a set of [supported LLM providers][providers], and you'll need an API key to get started. When you use Goose for the first time, you'll be prompted to select a provider and enter your API key.
|
|
|
|
<Tabs groupId="interface">
|
|
<TabItem value="ui" label="Goose Desktop" default>
|
|
Upon installing, the Provider screen will appear. Here is where you can choose your LLM Provider.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once selecting your provider, you'll be prompted to enter an API key if applicable. Do so, and click `Submit`.
|
|
</TabItem>
|
|
<TabItem value="cli" label="Goose CLI">
|
|
Upon installing, Goose will automatically enter its configuration screen. Here is where you can set up your LLM provider.

:::info Windows Users
|
|
On initial run, you may encounter errors about keyrings when setting your API Keys. Set the needed environment variables manually, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export OPENAI_API_KEY={your_api_key}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To make the changes persist in WSL across sessions, add the goose path and export commands to your `.bashrc` or `.bash_profile` file so you can load it later.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
|
|
echo 'export OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key' >> ~/.bashrc
|
|
source ~/.bashrc

## Shared Configuration Settings
|
|
|
|
The Goose CLI and Desktop UI share all core configurations, including LLM provider settings, model selection, and extension configurations. When you install or configure extensions in either interface, the settings are stored in a central location at `~/.config/goose/config.yaml`, making them available to both the Desktop application and CLI. This makes it convenient to switch between interfaces while maintaining consistent settings.
|
|
|
|
:::note
|
|
While core configurations are shared between interfaces, extensions have flexibility in how they store authentication credentials. Some extensions may use the shared config file while others implement their own storage methods.
