Use Grok in Goose

Steps

1. 1
   Step 1.

   In your terminal, run goose configure, select Configure Providers, choose xAI from the provider list, and enter your XAI_API_KEY when prompted. Press Enter to keep the default XAI_HOST.

   Terminal

   Copy

   goose configure

2. 2
   Step 2.

   Choose the model you want to use from the list. goose configure does not accept custom model names; for a model not in the list, use goose Desktop (Use custom model) or set GOOSE_MODEL in config.yaml.

3. 3
   Step 3.

   Alternatively set the provider and model through environment variables (documented variables, combined with goose's xai provider id and a current xAI model id):

   Terminal

   Copy

   export GOOSE_PROVIDER=xai
   export GOOSE_MODEL=grok-4.7
   export XAI_API_KEY=your_api_key

4. 4
   Step 4.

   goose Desktop: Settings > Models > Configure providers, click xAI, add your API key, Submit; then Switch models to pick a Grok model.
