Meta Launches Muse Code AI Coding Agent

Meta has released Muse Code, a terminal-based AI coding agent now in beta, designed to handle complex software engineering tasks across large code repositories. Powered by Meta's Muse Spark model, it can plan changes, write code, and validate results, with the ability to spin up parallel sub-agents for large projects. The launch positions Meta more competitively against rivals like OpenAI's Codex and Anthropic's Claude Code, with Meta's AI chief highlighting its cost advantages. The move follows Meta's broader push into enterprise AI, including a customer service agent launched in June.
