As a consumer product, muse must be able to browse the web to do all the things it promises that magical "agentic ai" can do. Meta needs Muse to work, badly, because it has 2 trillion dollars on the line and is a laughingstock in the AI race. Problem though, there have been crawlers and bots for as long as the internet has existed, and there are lots of roadblocks put in place to keep the web usable for people - captchas!
So what is a poor Meta to do? Why, subvert the terms of service of every website of course! The muse "hatch" binary and the web browser ship with an entire suite of skills, tools, prompt text, and specific site guidance for 92 sites, all designed to defeat captchas!
Muse has used its powers of brute force to disassemble its own binary and extract the strings into a topical collection here so you can follow along at home: https://github.com/sneakers-the-rat/muse-skills/tree/main/topics/bot_challenge
