+# Goose2 distro bundles
+
+A Goose2 distro bundle is an optional app-specific package of configuration and policy that the Tauri shell loads at startup.
+
+## What a distro bundle is
+
+A distro bundle lives under `ui/goose2/distro/` in development, and is bundled into the packaged app as a Tauri resource in production.
+
+Current supported files:
+
+- `distro.json` — distro manifest
+- `config.yaml` — optional Goose config passed to `goose serve`
+- `bin/` — optional executables or helper scripts prepended to `PATH` for `goose serve`
+
+## How it is discovered
+
+The Tauri app resolves the distro bundle in this order:
+
+1. `GOOSE_DISTRO_DIR`, if set
+2. bundled Tauri resource dir at `resource_dir()/distro`
+
+In development, `just dev` and `just dev-debug` automatically export `GOOSE_DISTRO_DIR` to `ui/goose2/distro` when that directory exists.
+
+## Manifest shape
+
+Example:
+
+```json
+{
+  "appVersion": "development",
+  "featureToggles": {
+    "costTracking": false
+  },
+  "providerAllowlist": "databricks"
+}
+```
+
+### Fields
+
+- `appVersion?: string`
+  - optional app version tag supplied by the distro
+
+- `featureToggles?: Record<string, boolean>`
+  - optional UI/product flags controlled by the distro
+  - currently supported:
+    - `costTracking`
+      - `false` hides cost UI in the token/context usage surfaces
+      - omitted behaves as enabled
+
+- `providerAllowlist?: string`
+  - comma-separated provider ids
+  - suggests which model providers to show in Settings
+  - suggests which Goose model options to show in the chat model picker
+
+- `extensionAllowlist?: string`
+  - comma-separated extension ids
+  - reserved for future UI suggestions
+
+## Runtime effects
+
+When a distro bundle is present, Goose2 does two kinds of things with it.
+
+### Frontend behavior
+
+The frontend loads `get_distro_bundle` during app startup and stores the manifest in Zustand.
+
+Today it uses that manifest to:
+
+- filter model providers shown in provider settings via `providerAllowlist`
+- filter Goose model options shown in the chat input model picker via `providerAllowlist`
+- hide cost UI when `featureToggles.costTracking === false`
+
+These allowlists are UI suggestions only. They do not enforce backend access control and do not invalidate existing sessions or saved model choices.
+
+### Backend / shell behavior
+
+When the Tauri shell launches the long-lived `goose serve` process, it applies the distro bundle like this:
+
+- prepends `distro/bin` to `PATH` when present
+- adds `distro/config.yaml` to `GOOSE_ADDITIONAL_CONFIG_FILES` when present
+- sets `GOOSE_DISTRO_DIR` to the resolved distro root
+
+This is shell-level behavior, so it is implemented as Tauri-side setup rather than an ACP method.
+
+## Development notes
+
+- packaged apps discover distro content from bundled Tauri resources
+- local development uses `GOOSE_DISTRO_DIR`
+- after changing `distro.json`, restart `just dev` so startup reloads the manifest
+
+## Scope guidance
+
+Use distro bundles for packaged-app policy and shell-level defaults.
+
+Good fits:
+
+- feature flags for Goose2 UI behavior
+- allowlists that suggest visible product choices
+- config or helper binaries that should be present when `goose serve` starts
+
+Avoid using distro bundles as a replacement for normal app state, user settings, or ACP-backed domain data.
