good_honker 🪿

A free, non-commercial conversational Goose MCP — a natural-language front end to the band Goose's show history, usable from Claude / claude.ai.

It is a live proxy over the open ElGoose.net API v2. It does not build, store, or redistribute a setlist dataset — every answer is fetched live and credited to ElGoose.net. Short-lived caching (minutes) is used only to reduce load and stay under ElGoose's rate limit.

Data: ElGoose.net (https://elgoose.net). All setlist data belongs to the ElGoose community. good_honker is an independent fan tool, not affiliated with ElGoose or Goose.

Use it

The server is live at https://good-honker.mino-yakking.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP).

Add it as a custom connector in claude.ai (Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector), paste the URL above, then just ask:

• "What's the latest Goose show?"
• "What did Goose play on this day in history?"
• "How many times have they played Hot Tea, and when was the debut?"
• "Give me a random Goose show."

Custom connectors require a paid Claude plan.

How it works

• All data comes live from the ElGoose.net API v2 — no scraping, no stored dataset.
• Queries run per user request; caching is short-lived and only to reduce load.
• Every response credits ElGoose.net and links back.
• A Cloudflare Worker (McpAgent + Durable Object) serves the MCP over Streamable HTTP, edge-caches upstream responses, and rate-limits per client. A Python stdio server (src/good_honker/) mirrors the same tools for local use.
