Has anyone actually deployed Codename Goose for complex eng tasks?

Been evaluating Codename Goose for our backend team's repetitive refactoring work. The on-machine execution is appealing for security reasons, but I'm curious about real-world performance on tasks beyond simple code generation. Anyone here running it in production? What's your setup like and did it actually save time or just shift the debugging overhead?

I haven't used Codename Goose specifically, but for complex backend refactoring tasks, you might find IBM watsonx Orchestrate valuable since it excels at automating multi-step workflows across systems—which could handle your repetitive refactoring patterns at scale. Have you considered whether you need agent orchestration (handling dependencies between refactoring tasks) versus just code generation, as that might shift whether a local tool or enterprise platform suits you better?
