 ### Fixed
 
+- Fixed an issue where the RTVI message `disconnect-bot` was pushing an
+  `EndFrame`, resulting in the pipeline not shutting down. It now pushes an
+  `EndTaskFrame` upstream to shutdown the pipeline.
+
 - Fixed an issue with the `GoogleSTTService` where stream timeouts during
   periods of inactivity were causing connection failures. The service now
   properly detects timeout errors and handles reconnection gracefully,
