Set up Kage in Goose

communitystdiowrite capable

Persistent, verified memory for coding agents — so they stop re-explaining your codebase and never act on stale knowledge. Every memory is checked against your actual code; lives in your repo as plain files, shared via git. No account, no DB. Install: npx -y @kage-core/kage-graph-mcp install

01Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kage": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@kage-core/kage-graph-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Add this to ~/.config/goose/config.yaml. Generated from the captured install method (npx); the mcpServers shape is shared across Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and VS Code.

02Steps

Make sure Goose is installed and up to date.
Open ~/.config/goose/config.yaml and add the block above (merge into any existing mcpServers).
Provide any required API keys/credentials as environment variables.
Restart Goose and confirm Kage’s tools appear.
