It covers installation with checksum verification, .museignore configuration, writing a MUSE_CODE.md project instructions file, subagent orchestration, Git worktree-based sandboxing, event-logged crash recovery, and a comparison of Standard vs Contributor pricing tiers against Claude Code and Gemini CLI. The piece repeatedly flags that the product, model name, and specs are unverified and that readers should confirm details against official Meta documentation before relying on them. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
