Upgrade Goose to v1.50.0 and enable GPT-6 Astra with goose-agent tool calling

Goose v1.50.0 adds GPT-6 Astra and goose-agent tool calling, requires HTTPS Snowflake, prefers latest MCP, and removes fast model routing plus the local-inference managed registry. Upgrade, pin explicit models, and update Snowflake, Databricks, MCP, and ACP clients.

Why this loop

v1.50.0 changes how Goose selects models and talks to tools and data sources. Fast model routing and the managed model registry for local inference are gone, so workflows that auto-picked models will break until you pin GPT-6 Astra or another explicit model. goose-agent now supports tool calling, which is the path to use for agent tool use. Snowflake connections must be HTTPS. Kotlin Databricks callers can set the AI Gateway path. MCP clients should prefer the latest protocol version, and ACP is split into separate npm packages for the goose ACP client and acp binary. Session naming is bound to a trusted path, tracing honors content-capture opt-out, subagent platform guards are enforced, and permission revocations persist across managers—update shared Goose config so these constraints are the default rather than surprises.

Proposed actions

  1. Upgrade Goose to v1.50.0 from https://github.com/aaif-goose/goose/releases/tag/v1.50.0, then set the provider model to a GPT-6 Astra model supported in this release.
  2. Enable tool calling on goose-agent so agent sessions invoke tools through the new goose-agent tool-calling path instead of the previous no-tools agent.
  3. Stop using fast model routing and the managed model registry for local inference (both removed in v1.50.0); pin every Goose session and local-inference config to an explicit model id.
  4. Replace HTTP Snowflake URLs with HTTPS (Goose now requires HTTPS). For Kotlin Databricks AI Gateway callers, set the AI Gateway path in the Kotlin client. Prefer the latest MCP version, and install the separately published goose ACP client and acp npm packages.
  5. Name CLI sessions only on the trusted path Goose now binds to; keep tracing content-capture opt-out honored; expect subagent platform guards to block unsupported platforms and permission revocations to persist across managers, using the authoritative tool-approval details in the UI.
