# elizaOS Discord - 2026-02-25

## Overall Discussion Highlights

### Framework Analysis & Competition

The team analyzed Nous Research's newly released **Hermes Agent framework**, which appears to be primarily Python-based (75%) and combines "zoey and openclaw" components. The only feature of interest identified was **trajectory compression for fitting training data into token budgets**. Contrary to initial speculation, the framework was developed primarily by Teknium without contributions from Roperito's Life Engine.

In the partners channel, discussions touched on other frameworks experiencing price increases, with Odilitime suggesting that long-term performance (one year) is a better indicator of value than short-term price movements.

### Critical Version Control Issues

A significant **version control problem** emerged in the main repository where the develop branch unexpectedly contained 2.0.0 code instead of 1.x code. After investigation, Odilitime determined the issue couldn't be traced through normal PR or commit history and was "unfixable" through conventional means. The solution was to create a **v2-develop branch** to preserve 1.x code for users still in transition.

An additional complication arose from **GitHub-Linear bidirectional synchronization** creating a "mess" in issue tracking that required cleanup.

### AI/LLM Applications in Hardware

A brief but interesting technical discussion explored the use of **LLMs for hardware development**. Odilitime shared practical experience using LLMs for FPGA development and noted their application in 3D printing workflows, responding to speculation about using AI for custom CPU design and hardware fabrication.

### Community Access & Administrative

Multiple users requested and received access to the "milady room" channel, with Odilitime handling these administrative requests. There were also inquiries about Babylon-related opportunities, with 100 spaces available for submission.

## Key Questions & Answers

**Q: Anyone know about zERC20.io?**  
A: Identified as an old protocol (answered by Futilitarianism)

**Q: Do you think people will use LLMs to fabricate custom hardware like CPUs?**  
A: Odilitime confirmed using LLMs for FPGAs and seeing them used for 3D printers (answered by Odilitime)

**Q: Was Linear synced with GitHub for issues?**  
A: Yes, both sides were synced bidirectionally (answered by Stan ⚡)

**Q: Can I get access to milady room?**  
A: Access granted (answered by Odilitime to multiple users)

### Unanswered Questions

- How much of Roperito's life engine is in the Hermes agent framework?
- Was putting 2.0.0 code in develop intentional?
- When will new AI news be released?
- When is the Babylon release?

## Community Help & Collaboration
