elizaos/eliza

Eliza (elizaOS) is an open source TypeScript framework for building and deploying autonomous AI agents. An "agent" in this context is software that can carry on conversations, perform tasks, and make decisions on its own, connected to various external services. The framework is organized around a few key concepts. The core runtime handles the agent's decision-making loop and memory. Plugins extend the runtime with specific behaviors, for example, there are plugins that connect an agent to messaging platforms like Discord and Telegram, plugins that give agents access to web browsing or document search, and plugins for working with various AI model providers. On top of this plugin system, developers can build full deployable products (called projects) that include their own user interface. Eliza comes with a command-line tool for scaffolding new agents and projects quickly, a web dashboard for managing agents in real time, and support for running multiple coordinated agents together. It also includes a set of ready-made example projects and evaluation tools for testing how well agents perform on various tasks. The project is designed to be model-agnostic, meaning the same agent code can run with different AI models from different providers by swapping configurations. It is licensed under the MIT license.
