Muse Glimmer 30B was released August 10, 2026 as Meta's open-weight model for agentic work, licensed under Apache 2.0. It is a dense causal transformer of roughly 29.6 billion parameters across 52 layers, including a perception encoder that lets it accept interleaved text and images, and it supports more than 100 languages within a context window of 131.1K tokens.
The attention design matters for how it behaves at length: grouped-query attention with a repeating local-local-local-global pattern and a sliding window, so most layers attend locally and periodic global layers carry longer-range structure. Reasoning effort is selectable across low, medium, high, and xhigh through the system prompt.
Muse Glimmer 30B is a distillation of Meta's flagship, which shapes where it is strong. On agentic orchestration and reasoning it leads comparable open models, with 75.5 on MCP Atlas, 74.6 on DeepSearch QA, and 94.7 on AIME 2026. It trails on computer-use and terminal work, where Qwen3.6-27B stays ahead on OSWorld-Verified and TerminalBench 2.1. The knowledge cutoff is January 4, 2026.
Quantized to roughly 4 bits the model drops under 20 GB, which leaves room on a 24 to 32 GB machine for the KV cache and encoder. Through AI Gateway you can call it over an API instead, and keep the option of self-hosting later.
You can integrate Muse Glimmer 30B through AI SDK, Chat Completions API, Responses API, Messages API, or other API formats, from TypeScript or Python.
