Meta's Muse agent gives every user a full cloud computer running Ubuntu Linux
Meta's Muse agent now gives each user a free Ubuntu cloud computer isolated by a Sentinel monitor.
Meta's Muse agent now gives every user a free cloud computer running a full Ubuntu Linux image, where they can install software, compile code, and browse the web. David Singleton of Meta Superintelligence Labs said a Muse Secure VM isolates work in a Runtime Cell while a Sentinel process outside the cell watches sensitive actions and keeps credentials separate. The design is intended to stop prompt injection from reaching Meta infrastructure or other users' data, and users can inspect files inside the cell. Muse drew more than 500,000 users in its first week and hit number one on the Apple App Store; Meta Connect 2026 also added video chat, email, and Mac app control.
- Every Muse user gets a free Ubuntu Linux cloud computer.
- A Sentinel process outside the Runtime Cell monitors sensitive actions.
- Credentials stay outside the cell to limit prompt-injection impact.
- Muse passed 500,000 users in week one and topped the App Store.
- Meta Connect 2026 added video chat, email, and Mac app control.

Meta gives every Muse user a free cloud computer running Ubuntu Linux where they can install software, write code, and browse the web. A "Sentinel" process monitors sensitive actions outside the user's workspace, while users can inspect every file in the system. With over 500,000 users in its first week, Meta is betting on product reach over model power.
