Unable to Paste Any Content into Goose Chat Input on macOS

Environment

• Operating System: macOS 15.5
• Goose Version: 1.04.24

Description

Unable to paste any content into Goose's chat input field. The issue affects all content types and paste methods.

Reproduction Steps

1. Open Goose
2. Copy any content (text, code, URL) from any source
3. Try to paste into Goose chat input using:
   • Keyboard shortcut (Cmd+V)
   • Right-click context menu
   • Edit menu paste option
4. Observe that pasting fails with all methods

Current Behavior

• No content can be pasted into the chat input
• No error messages are displayed
• No response to paste attempts

Expected Behavior

• Should be able to paste content using standard macOS paste methods
• Should work like other text input fields in macOS applications

Permissions Verified

The following macOS permissions have been enabled for Goose:

• ✓ Accessibility
• ✓ Full Disk Access
• ✓ Input Monitoring

Troubleshooting Steps Attempted

1. Enabled all relevant macOS permissions
2. Reset clipboard server (killall pboard)
3. Restarted Goose application
4. Restarted computer
5. Tested different types of content (plain text, rich text, code, URLs)
6. Verified copy/paste works in other applications

Impact

This significantly impacts usability, especially when:

• Sharing code snippets
• Providing long-form responses
• Sharing URLs or technical information

Additional Notes

• Copy/paste functionality works normally in all other applications
• The issue persists across application restarts
• No error messages or notifications are shown when paste is attempted

I'm not able to reproduce this in the desktop app. @mbloomsq can you confirm is this happening on other machines?

can you try to upgrade the version? The latest one is 1.0.27

[mbloomsq]

I checked and now I have 1.0.24, but Goose isn't showing up in MSC to update

[mbloomsq]

@yingjiehe-xyz I'm now update to 1.0.27 and still unable to copy/paste into goose

[DOsinga]

we've updated to a new UI, can you test again? also, can you hit option-cmd-I and see if there's anything in the developer console?

[mbloomsq]

@DOsinga I'm all set now, this issue is resolved. Thanks!
