You are helping me adopt a real coding-assistant change. Work only from the facts below. Do not invent features.

Context

Assistant: Goose Proposal: Set GOOSE_DOCS_ROOT and wire structured compaction templates Summary: Goose v1.45.0 adds GOOSE_DOCS_ROOT for air-gapped docs, structured summary templates for compaction, model tab-completion/provider switching, latest Gemini support, and the ability to disable built-in skills. Primary source: https://github.com/aaif-goose/goose/releases/tag/v1.45.0

Why it matters

Goose v1.45.0 ships GOOSE_DOCS_ROOT so air-gapped installs serve docs from a local tree (#10294) and structured summary output with template rendering for compaction (#10471). It also adds tab completion and provider switching on the model command (#10585), latest Gemini models (#10630), disabling built-in skills (#10600), restored Grok discovery (#10756), DeepSeek v4 names (#10729), and stable agent event message identity (#10716). Teams that compact long sessions, run offline, or pin providers should set the docs root, adopt structured compaction templates, and lock model/skill defaults so agents do not fetch remote docs or load unused built-ins.

Suggested actions

1. export GOOSE_DOCS_ROOT=/opt/goose/docs && mkdir -p "$GOOSE_DOCS_ROOT" && rsync -a --delete /path/to/goose/documentation/ "$GOOSE_DOCS_ROOT"/ && restart Goose so air-gapped sessions resolve docs only from that tree (#10294).

2. Install Goose v1.45.0 from https://github.com/aaif-goose/goose/releases/tag/v1.45.0, then wire compaction to structured summary output with template rendering so compacted sessions emit templated structured summaries instead of free-form text (#10471).

3. In the Goose CLI, run model, use tab completion, and switch provider to a latest Gemini model (or restored Grok / DeepSeek v4 API names) for this session (#10585, #10630, #10756, #10729).

4. Disable built-in skills in this workspace (#10600) so only org skills load; keep existing platform-extension enabled flags as migrated (#10690).
