Ollama Adds Muse Glimmer — Meta's 30B Agentic Model Now Cross-Platform

Ollama's August 16 update brings Meta Superintelligence Labs' Muse Glimmer 30B to NVIDIA and AMD GPUs — not just Apple Silicon.

What it is:
A 30B parameter agentic coding model trained specifically for software development tasks. Licensed under Apache 2.0.

Why it matters:

• Runs on a single consumer GPU (RTX 4090, RX 7900 XTX)


• Fully local — zero API costs, zero data leaving your machine


• Apache 2.0 license means you can use it commercially without restrictions

Try it now:

ollama run muse-glimmer

Concrete use case:
Replace API-based code review tools ($3-5/PR) with a fully local alternative that runs your entire review pipeline on-premise. At 20+ PRs/day for a team, that's ~$1,110/month in saved API costs.

🧠 The future of dev tooling isn't an API key — it's a GPU you already own.
