Connect Goose

Connect Goose

Connect Goose Desktop or CLI to Maple Proxy, using a real Maple API key and a tool-capable model. Choose an image-capable model when sending screenshots.

Start Maple Proxy, create a key, and choose a tool-capable model.

Goose Desktop

Open Settings, then the Models tab, and select Configure providers.
Select Add Custom Provider.
Choose the OpenAI-compatible type, and enter:
- API URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080/v1
- API key: your Maple API key
- Models: the Maple model IDs you want to use
Select Create Provider, then switch to one of its models.

Goose CLI

The CLI’s OPENAI_HOST is the host without /v1:

Shell

export OPENAI_HOST=http://127.0.0.1:8080
export OPENAI_API_KEY=your-maple-api-key
export GOOSE_PROVIDER=openai
export GOOSE_MODEL=gpt-oss-120b
goose session

For screenshots, choose a model with image support. The proxy’s whole request-body limit is 50 MiB. If Goose’s settings change, see its provider guide; for request errors, see troubleshooting.
