These messages are developer instructions to the assistant (e.g. "Please
introduce yourself to the user"), not simulated user input. The
"developer" role is semantically correct for this purpose.
Add `system_instruction` field to `LLMSettings` so it is runtime-updatable via settings.
For Google (GoogleLLMService, GoogleVertexLLMService), deprecate the init-time arg since it was already shipped. For Anthropic, AWS Bedrock, and OpenAI, remove the init-time arg entirely since it was never shipped.
Still need to handle realtime services (OpenAI Realtime, Grok Realtime, Gemini Live).
With all these examples updated, we no longer need dedicated examples illustrating `LLMContext`, so they're removed.
Here’s where we *don’t* yet use `LLMContext` and associated machinery:
- Realtime services: OpenAI Realtime, Gemini Live, and AWS Nova Sonic (support coming soon)
- `GoogleLLMOpenAIBetaService` (it’s deprecated, so we didn’t bother adding support)
- `LLMLogObserver` (support coming soon)
- `GatedOpenAILLMContextAggregator` (support coming soon)
- `LangchainProcessor` (support coming soon)
- `Mem0MemoryService` (support coming soon)
- Examples that use LLM-specific tools definitions as opposed to `ToolsSchema` (these will be updated soon)
- Examples that rely `GoogleLLMContext.upgrade_to_google` (TBD what to do with these)
