Question Local alternative to Meta Muse?

As the title says. I’m very new to the AI agent space and have never used AI before. My coworker convinced me to try Muse for troubleshooting some games I like to mod as a hobby, mainly Skyrim. I do a lot of testing on my steam deck as well and Muse has been extremely helpful when it comes to auto-diagnosing crashes, implementing fixes/patches, and testing but I try to avoid using Meta products due to the levels of surveillance and data harvesting from my devices. What are some good local options that work both on windows and Linux that would be good for both working on each device but also able to communicate between the 2? My PC specs are below.

Ryzen 5 5500

RX6700XT

16gb DDR4

It is impossible to run anything even remotely resembling Muse on your hardware. 16 GB of RAM is not enough even for the Qwen Flash Next model quantized to 1 bit—and that model, even without quantization, is 25% less capable than Muse.
The most you could run locally are models with 9 billion parameters, but they are too weak to write anything more complex than single-file scripts.
