pgrades. The team has completed the bulk of the upgrades and is working to ensure the site can handle scaling without issues. Several users reported that the site was redirecting to X (Twitter) or showing incomplete data during testing. The team is being cautious about the release to avoid having to take the site down again. When ready, they'll announce it in the fun and partners channels before any public marketing. Some tokens created on April 22 couldn't be queried or traded on the website. The team is manually adding these to the import list, which will be visible once the site is back up.

# ElizaOS V2 and Plugin Development The ElizaOS v2 migration is a significant t...

opic of discussion, with users questioning its status and timeline. The v2-develop branch has substantial structural changes compared to the main branch, causing compatibility issues with existing plugins. Key technical points: - The `elizaos plugin` command appears to only support the `publish` subcommand, contrary to documentation - Local model implementation is causing errors, with specific TypeErrors related to text parsing - v2 seems to primarily support OpenAI and Anthropic while lacking support for other models like Deepseek - Some users are experiencing dependency installation issues when using Docker containers For plugin development in v2, users are advised to clone the v2-develop branch and copy an existing plugin as a starting point. For Telegram integration, users need to disable "Privacy Mode" in BotFather and re-add the bot to groups. The community is generally advised to use the main branch (0.x) as it's more stable than v2-develop for production use.
