# Goose Super Powers - Implementation Plan ## Vision Transform Goose into a **Super-Powered AI Coding IDE** that beats Lovable and computer-use gimmicks by integrating: 1. **App Preview** - Live preview of web apps (like Antigravity) 2. **Computer Use** - Control Windows via GUI automation (Windows-Use) 3. **Browser Control** - Automated web browsing (browser-use) 4. **Server Management** - Remote server control via SSH --- ## Phase 1: App Preview (Priority: HIGH) ### Goal Embed a live web browser/iframe in Goose that can preview HTML/JS/CSS files created by the AI. ### Implementation #### [NEW] `bin/goose-electron-app/preview-panel.js` - Create a preview panel component using Electron's BrowserView/webview - Hot-reload when files change - Support for file:// and localhost URLs - Dev server integration (auto-run npm/vite when needed) #### [MODIFY] `bin/goose-electron-app/index.html` - Add resizable split-pane layout - Preview panel on the right side - Toggle button in header #### [MODIFY] `bin/goose-electron-app/main.cjs` - IPC handlers for: - `preview:load-url` - Load URL in preview - `preview:load-file` - Load HTML file - `preview:start-server` - Auto-start dev server - `preview:refresh` - Refresh preview --- ## Phase 2: Computer Use Integration (Priority: HIGH) ### Goal Allow Goose to control the Windows desktop - click, type, take screenshots, execute commands. ### Key Features from Windows-Use/Open-Interface - Screenshot capture and analysis - Mouse/keyboard simulation - Window management (minimize, focus, resize) - Shell command execution - UI Automation via accessibility APIs ### Implementation #### [NEW] `bin/goose-electron-app/computer-use.cjs` Module to handle computer control: - `captureScreen()` - Take screenshot of desktop/window - `click(x, y)` - Simulate mouse click - `type(text)` - Simulate keyboard input - `pressKey(key, modifiers)` - Key combinations (Ctrl+C, etc.) - `moveWindow(title, x, y, w, h)` - Window management - `runCommand(cmd)` - Execute shell commands - `getActiveWindow()` - Get focused window info #### Dependencies - `robotjs` or `nut.js` - Cross-platform mouse/keyboard automation - `screenshot-desktop` - Screen capture - Native Node.js `child_process` for shell commands #### [MODIFY] `bin/goose-electron-app/main.cjs` Add IPC handlers: - `computer:screenshot` - `computer:click` - `computer:type` - `computer:run-command` - `computer:get-windows` #### [MODIFY] `bin/goose-electron-app/preload.js` Expose computer-use APIs to renderer --- ## Phase 3: Browser Automation (Priority: MEDIUM) ### Goal Allow Goose to browse the web autonomously - open pages, fill forms, click buttons, extract data. ### Key Features from browser-use - Headless/headed browser control - Page navigation - Element interaction (click, type, select) - Data extraction - Form filling - Screenshot of web pages ### Implementation #### [NEW] `bin/goose-electron-app/browser-agent.cjs` Browser automation using Playwright: - `openPage(url)` - Navigate to URL - `clickElement(selector)` - Click on element - `typeInElement(selector, text)` - Type in input - `extractText(selector)` - Get text content - `screenshot()` - Capture page - `evaluate(script)` - Run JS in page context #### Dependencies - `playwright` - Chromium automation (more reliable than Puppeteer) --- ## Phase 4: Server Management (Priority: MEDIUM) ### Goal Allow Goose to connect to and manage remote servers via SSH. ### Features - SSH connection management - Remote command execution - File upload/download (SFTP) - Log viewing - Service management (start/stop/restart) ### Implementation #### [NEW] `bin/goose-electron-app/server-manager.cjs` SSH and server management: - `connect(host, user, keyPath)` - Establish SSH connection - `exec(command)` - Run remote command - `upload(localPath, remotePath)` - SFTP upload - `download(remotePath, localPath)` - SFTP download - `listProcesses()` - Get running processes - `tailLog(path)` - Stream log file #### Dependencies - `ssh2` - SSH client for Node.js --- ## Phase 5: AI Agent Integration ### Goal Connect all these capabilities to the AI so it can: 1. Understand user requests 2. Plan multi-step actions 3. Execute using computer-use/browser/server APIs 4. Verify results via screenshots 5. Self-correct if needed ### Implementation #### [MODIFY] `bin/qwen-bridge.mjs` Add tool definitions for the AI: ```javascript const TOOLS = [ { name: 'computer_screenshot', description: 'Take a screenshot of the desktop', parameters: {} }, { name: 'computer_click', description: 'Click at screen coordinates', parameters: { x: 'number', y: 'number' } }, { name: 'browser_open', description: 'Open a URL in the browser', parameters: { url: 'string' } }, { name: 'run_command', description: 'Execute a shell command', parameters: { command: 'string' } }, // ... more tools ]; ``` --- ## UI Enhancements ### New Header Action Buttons - 🖼️ **Preview** - Toggle app preview panel - 🖥️ **Computer** - Show computer-use actions - 🌐 **Browser** - Browser automation panel - 🔗 **Server** - Server connection manager ### Action Modals - Computer Use modal with screenshot display - Browser automation with page preview - Server terminal with command history --- ## Verification Plan ### Phase 1 Testing 1. Create an HTML file via chat 2. Click Preview button 3. Verify file renders in preview panel ### Phase 2 Testing 1. Ask "open notepad" 2. Verify Goose takes screenshot, finds notepad, clicks 3. Ask "type hello world" 4. Verify text appears in notepad ### Phase 3 Testing 1. Ask "go to google.com and search for weather" 2. Verify browser opens, navigates, searches ### Phase 4 Testing 1. Connect to SSH server 2. Run remote command 3. Verify output displayed --- ## Dependencies to Install ```bash cd bin/goose-electron-app npm install robotjs screenshot-desktop playwright ssh2 ``` --- ## Risk Assessment - **robotjs** may require native build tools (node-gyp) - **Playwright** downloads Chromium (~200MB) - **SSH2** may have security implications (store credentials securely) --- ## Immediate Next Steps 1. **Start with App Preview** - Most impactful, lowest risk 2. Add preview panel to Electron app 3. Test with simple HTML file 4. Then add computer-use features
