Meta has launched Muse Code, a beta terminal coding agent built on its Muse Spark model that can fan out tasks to parallel sub-agents working in isolated worktrees. The release positions Meta to compete with OpenAI's Codex and Anthropic's Claude Code, with Meta AI chief Alexandr Wang emphasizing cost advantages.

Meta has released Muse Code, its first AI coding agent, built to work with the new Muse Spark 1.2 model. The beta tool undercuts rivals Anthropic and OpenAI on price rather than raw capability, according to Meta AI chief Alexandr Wang.

Meta released Muse Spark in early April, its first closed-source AI model that will eventually offer paid developer access. According to Arena.AI rankings, Muse Spark trails Anthropic's Claude and Google's Gemini in text capabilities but beats OpenAI's GPT in vision tasks.

Meta has released Muse Spark, the first model from Meta Superintelligence Labs, a unit assembled under chief AI officer Alexandr Wang following Meta's $14.3 billion investment in Scale AI. The natively multimodal model features a "Contemplating" reasoning mode with parallel sub-agents and marks Meta's break from its open-source Llama heritage by operating as closed source.
