Meta releases Muse Gadgets open‑source hardware SDK and Home Link adapter
Meta published device SDKs and firmware (Apache 2.0) for ESP32 and Linux devices but retains service control via per‑developer tokens and explicit limits; Meta made 5,000 Home Link adapters available free to Muse subscribers.

ESP32 Device SDK and firmware provided under Apache 2.0 license.
Linux Device SDK available for Raspberry Pi and similar boards.
Example projects include screens, audio I/O, sensors and Home Assistant integrations.
Home Link is a USB‑C powered ESP32‑C5 adapter running official firmware.
Meta said it produced 5,000 units and will offer them free to active Muse subscribers, one per subscriber, shipping in October while supplies last.
Claiming a place in line is not an order; Meta notes shipping timing and limits.
Each device needs a Muse Gadget SDK token; Meta’s terms say the SDK and tokens are not a supported product.
Tokens are limited to 50 devices and prohibit embedding in devices sold without written permission.
Meta can change or withdraw tokens; the license does not guarantee lasting connectivity to Muse.
