feat: @goose in terminal (native terminal support) by DOsinga · Pull Request #5887 · block/goose

DOsinga · 2025-11-26T11:47:50Z

Summary

Douwe's take on this saga :)

Term command is a new way to use goose without the builtin REPL - instead the session is tied right into your terminal

- Fix bash/zsh: properly quote goose binary path to handle spaces - Extract session creation logic to ensure_terminal_session helper - Reduces code duplication between handle_term_log and handle_term_run

+        chrono::Utc::now().timestamp_millis(),
+        vec![MessageContent::text(command)],
+    )
+    .with_metadata(MessageMetadata::user_only());


we could leave this out since we truncate again

do messages have an LLM only state? because these would be weird/spammy if you saw them in a GUI i think

if they are like what I saw, isn't end of the world.

Pull request overview

This PR adds terminal integration features to Goose, enabling users to interact with Goose directly from their shell prompt without switching to a separate REPL session. The integration tracks shell command history and provides it as context when users ask questions.

Key changes:

New SessionType::Terminal enum variant for terminal-specific sessions
New goose term CLI commands for shell initialization, command logging, and running prompts
Comprehensive documentation explaining setup and usage across multiple shells (bash, zsh, fish, PowerShell)

+                   COUNT(m.id) as message_count
+            FROM sessions s
+            INNER JOIN messages m ON s.id = m.session_id


The INNER JOIN with messages excludes sessions with no messages. This breaks named session lookup - a newly created terminal session won't be found on the next term init call until it has messages. Use LEFT JOIN instead and COALESCE(COUNT(m.id), 0) for the message count.

Suggested change

COUNT(m.id) as message_count

FROM sessions s

INNER JOIN messages m ON s.id = m.session_id

COALESCE(COUNT(m.id), 0) as message_count

FROM sessions s

LEFT JOIN messages m ON s.id = m.session_id

@DOsinga this sounds so convincing but I am not so sure (also if it is true, I don't think this is a bad thing... I was wondering how do we get a fresh session)?

LGTM!

Feel free to retarget to my outstanding branch/PR and i will address the nits, or if you have time can merge directly
