Meta has launched Muse Glimmer, a 30-billion-parameter open-weight model from Meta Superintelligence Labs designed for always-on agentic AI running locally.
Released under the Apache 2.0 license, the model supports multi-step reasoning, coding, reliable function calling, multimodal understanding, end-to-end task completion, and recovery from failed tool calls.
Meta optimized Glimmer to run on consumer hardware, including Macs and PCs equipped with a single GPU, reducing dependence on cloud infrastructure and internet connectivity. Developers can download the weights from Hugging Face and deploy the model through frameworks and services including Ollama, LM Studio, llama.cpp, vLLM, SGLang, and OpenRouter.
