Meta has released Meta Muse Code, a terminal-based coding assistant for macOS and Linux, and it’s clearly built for people working in real codebases, not toy projects.
The company says you can install Meta Muse Code with a single command. From there, it’s meant to handle the full loop across large repositories: planning code changes, writing the code, and checking the results. Meta is also leaning on persistent background agents, plus an event log that lets you pick back up after a crash or any other interruption.
On pricing, Meta says the standard tier starts at $1.25 per million input tokens and $4.25 per million output tokens. There’s also a contributor tier that drops those rates to $0.10 and $0.20, but only if you agree to let Meta use your prompts and code for future training. That puts Meta Muse Code in direct competition with OpenAI Codex, Anthropic Claude Code, and GitHub Copilot, not just on performance, but on price too.
If you’re after a lower-cost coding assistant, this is probably an update worth trying. If your day-to-day work involves proprietary code, though, that tradeoff may be a lot harder to swallow.
The release lands in the middle of a broader rush around coding tools. Forecasts for the market are all over the place, from $4.2 billion in 2025 to somewhere between $6.9 billion and $40.7 billion by the mid-2030s. Meanwhile, 84% of developers already use these tools or expect to, while only 29% fully trust the code they generate. That gap matters, especially as Meta looks for new revenue beyond Llama. Meta Muse Code is available now on macOS and Linux.
