Pedro Cuenca writes Meta released Muse Glimmer-30B, a local, open-source multimodal model distilled from its larger Muse architecture. Designed for agentic workflows, it combines a 28B text decoder with a 2B vision encoder, supporting image, video, and multimodal tool calling out of the box. The release includes immediate compatibility with major inference frameworks like transformers, llama.cpp, and vLLM, alongside built-in speculative decoding for faster generation.
- Features a hybrid attention pattern alternating between three sliding window layers and one full attention layer.
- Incorporates a DFlash block-diffusion drafter to accelerate structured text generation like coding.
- Supports fine-tuning via TRL with practical minimums ranging from one to eight H100 GPUs depending on the method.
- Demonstrates autonomous agent capabilities such as self-quantization, self-deployment, and hardware-specific optimization.

A terminal tool that right-sizes LLM models to your system's RAM, CPU, and GPU. Detects your hardware, scores each model across quality, speed, fit, and context dimensions, and tells you which ones will actually run well on your machine.
Qwen3-Coder-Next is an 80B MoE model with 256K context designed for fast, agentic coding and local use. It offers performance comparable to models with 10-20x more active parameters and excels in long-horizon reasoning, complex tool use, and recovery from execution failures.
This section details how to load and use multiple models with the llama.cpp server. It covers configuring the server to handle multiple models, the model path format, and considerations for memory usage.
