Connect Collate to Goose
Give Goose governed access to Collate’s 19 tools through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.
Set up

Adding a connector manually - 2
Connect Goose to Runlayer
Users add the Runlayer Plugin as a Goose extension; Goose has no native plugin install. Goose reaches Collate’s 19 tools through the Runlayer Plugin’s search and execute tools instead of listing each one.

Control
What Runlayer can see and stop in Goose
Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Goose exposes to Runlayer.
Gateway policy (available)
Every Collate call from Goose passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.
Audit trail (available)
Each call is recorded with the user, Goose as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.
Client hooks (available)
Capture supported prompts, reasoning, local and MCP tool calls, responses, and scanner decisions in real time.
Stop a call before it runs (available)
Runlayer can deny a tool call before Goose runs it.
Block output after it runs (available)
Runlayer can block a tool’s output before Goose’s model sees it.
Redact output in place (not available)
Goose cannot apply masking, so Runlayer blocks output it would otherwise mask. The gateway still applies policy to the call.
