While the pasta cooks, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes; reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the mussels and wine; cover, raise the heat to high, and cook until the mussel shells open, 3 to 5 minutes.
