Meta shipped a terminal coding agent called Muse Code, and the agent is not the story. The price list is. One model, two rates. On the standard tier you pay one dollar twenty five per million input tokens. On what Meta calls the contributor tier, you pay ten cents. That is twelve and a half times cheaper, and nothing about the model changes. The only difference is that contributor users give Meta permission to train future models on their prompts and their completions. Meta is not competing on margin here. It is buying a corpus. And the model is genuinely decent: vals dot ai measured it at eighty six point six percent on SWE bench Verified, an exact tie with Grok four point five. So the question is not whether it works. It is whether the code you are about to send it is actually yours to license.
