Eliza
An open-source TypeScript agent framework and product stack with a runtime, applications, and plugins.
About Eliza
An agent product may need a maintained runtime and plugin structure beyond a single model-call script.
Who it’s for
- TypeScript developers evaluating an agent runtime
- Builders extending an existing agent and plugin ecosystem
When to consider it
Consider elizaOS when its runtime and plugin approach match the product you want to build. Choose a specific entry point before installing the entire stack; using an app and extending the runtime are different projects.
Tradeoffs & limitations
- The repository spans several products and packages; setup requirements vary.
- Plugins and connected services require their own permission and compatibility review.
A useful first evaluation
Follow the current runtime documentation and build one bounded plugin workflow. Check startup requirements, state handling and the permissions of each installed plugin.

Imported source
An optional TypeSafe HTTP adapter in Eliza’s source, not registered with the Agent runtime by default.
The adapter is not registered with the runtime by default; source presence does not establish real adoption or deployment.
