Agentic AI Foundation

So I'll focus on the block's contribtution, which is goose: https://github.com/block/goose

Has it gotten better and good enough? I tried it a few months back and it was pretty crappy. And it's not because of bad models (I used it with the latest Claude at that time) but because of poor harness implementation and UI.

Is it worth trying the latest version to see how it compares with Claude Code? I want OSS, model agnostic implementation to win but I felt the odds are off then. I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

Forgive me for underestimating but I'd never heard of 'Block' before, and the title "Block, Anthropic, and OpenAI Launch the Agentic AI Foundation" reads a bit funny to me. Plus the bitcoin blurb on their site is also worth a chuckle -

"Bitcoin is about access, not speculation. It’s designed to be open, fast, low-cost, and free from centralized control. It’s meant to empower people"

That website reminds me of the one…where a guy sold pixels on a website for like a buck and people basically bought ads.

Spot the odd one out

Such irony given Anthropic is hostile to open sourcing their agent frameworks like clause desktop and CLI.
