description: EigenLayer is a restaking protocol on Ethereum operated by Layr Labs that lets stakers re-use staked ETH (or
  liquid-staking tokens) to secure additional off-chain services called Actively Validated Services (AVSs). The team has since
  unified the restaking layer with EigenDA (data availability), EigenCompute (verifiable off-chain compute), and EigenAI (deterministic
  inference) under the EigenCloud brand. Developer surface includes the EigenLayer core smart contracts, AVS framework, EigenSDK
  in Go and TypeScript, EigenCloud CLI, and language SDKs for EigenCompute / EigenDA / EigenAI.

  description: Solidity smart contracts that implement the EigenLayer restaking protocol - StrategyManager, DelegationManager,
    EigenPodManager, AVSDirectory, and the slasher. Operators register, stakers delegate, and AVSs hook in via these on-chain
    entry points.
