Today, the ElizaOS project saw significant advancements in AI model support with the integration of Secret AI LLM and NEAR AI Inference API, alongside key infrastructure improvements like setting Lava as the default RPC for NEAR and Starknet. Documentation was enhanced with a new Plugin Showcase page, and new CLI commands were introduced for agent management, while several bugs were addressed to improve platform stability.
