Integrating Goose with HPC-AI Tech
Goose is an open-source AI agent that helps developers automate coding tasks, explore repositories, execute commands, and build intelligent development workflows. By connecting Goose to the HPC-AI Tech Model APIs platform, you can leverage high-performance models like MiniMax-M2.5 through a unified OpenAI-compatible API.
In this guide, we'll walk you through how to integrate Goose with HPC-AI Tech so you can start building with your preferred models in minutes.

🚀 Prerequisites
Before we dive in, make sure you have:
-
Goose installed and configured
-
An HPC-AI Tech API Key (from the Model APIs platform)
🛠️ Configuration: Choose Your Method
Goose offers multiple ways to configure model providers depending on your workflow. Pick what suits you best.
Method 1: Interactive Configuration (Recommended)
Best for developers who prefer a guided setup.
Launch Goose.
Open Settings or Provider Configuration.
Select OpenAI-Compatible Provider.
Enter the following:
Base URL
https://api.hpc-ai.com/inference/v1
API Key
your-hpc-ai-api-key
Select the model:
minimax/minimax-m2.5
(You can replace this with any model available on the HPC-AI Tech Model APIs platform.)
Save the configuration and begin using Goose.
Method 2: Config File (The Structured Way)
Best for reproducibility, automation, or team environments.
Create or edit your Goose configuration file.
Configure the following:
{
"provider": "openai-compatible",
"baseURL": "https://api.hpc-ai.com/inference/v1",
"apiKey": "${HPC_AI_API_KEY}",
"model": "minimax/minimax-m2.5"
}
Using environment variables for your API key is recommended for improved security.
Method 3: Environment Variables (The Lightweight Way)
Best for quick setups or CI/CD pipelines.
export HPC_AI_API_KEY="sk-your-hpc-ai-api-key"
export OPENAI_API_BASE="https://api.hpc-ai.com/inference/v1"
Then launch Goose and select:
minimax/minimax-m2.5
as your default model.
✅ Verifying the Connection
After configuration, it's important to confirm everything is working correctly.
-
Restart Goose (if required)
-
Open a project or repository
-
Ask Goose to explain, generate, or modify code
-
Ensure responses are returned successfully from the model
A successful response confirms:
-
Your API key is valid
-
The endpoint is reachable
-
The model is correctly configured
🎯 Summary
By integrating Goose with HPC-AI Tech, you unlock:
-
Access to multiple state-of-the-art AI models
-
OpenAI-compatible APIs
-
Cost-efficient inference
-
Reliable, low-latency model serving
-
Flexible model switching through a single platform
Whether you're automating development tasks, building AI agents, or managing complex repositories, HPC-AI Tech provides the performance and flexibility needed to scale your workflows.
Happy coding!
