Meta launched Muse Wonder and Muse Wonder Full and says they rival the best models from OpenAI and Anthropic. Both reports rest on Meta's own benchmark figures, so teams choosing a vendor have one more candidate to test on their own work.

Kong AI Gateway hides the rollback tool from Muse Code's investigator by filtering tools/list per identity

Meta's docs say Muse Code's MCP tools skip its sandbox and approval prompts, so one builder moved the permission check into Kong AI Gateway. For ops tools that can change production, an enforceable check has to sit on the tool side of the connection.
