Replace adapter-based extraction in traced_llm with direct reads from
_settings.system_instruction (priority) and context messages (fallback).
The old approach had three bugs: signature mismatch with Anthropic
adapter, key name inconsistency, and unnecessary overhead from full
message/tools conversion.
Also deduplicate the system instruction in spans -- it was appearing as
both "system" and "param.system_instruction".
Enhanced the logic for extracting the system message in the traced_llm decorator to support LLMContext via adapter and handle exceptions gracefully. This improves compatibility with different context types and ensures better tracing information.
These services were pushing audio frames directly via push_frame() in their
WebSocket receive loops, bypassing the base TTSService audio context
serialization queue. This causes incorrect frame ordering and broken
interruption handling.
Changes per service:
- Fish Audio: use append_to_audio_context(), replace _handle_interruption
with on_audio_context_interrupted()
- LMNT: use append_to_audio_context(), remove redundant push_frame override
- Neuphonic: use append_to_audio_context(), remove redundant push_frame and
process_frame overrides (base class handles pause/resume)
- Rime NonJson: use append_to_audio_context(), remove redundant push_frame
override
The LLMContext format already matches the expected Responses API
shape for input_audio, so no adapter conversion will be needed
once OpenAI enables support.
The API-provided full model name is more specific than the
user-provided model name (e.g. includes version/snapshot details).
Reorder the lookup in _get_model_name and add a comment where the
Responses service sets the field.
The override would re-add `instructions` after the adapter had
intentionally converted it to a developer message for empty contexts.
Added a regression test.
Set store=False in Responses API calls since we send full conversation
history as input items and don't use previous_response_id.
Add 5 run_inference tests for OpenAIResponsesLLMService using real
LLMContext and adapter (only HTTP client mocked).
Uses real LLMContext and adapter (only HTTP client is mocked) to test
basic inference, client exception propagation, system_instruction
override, empty context fallback, and max_tokens override.
Add OpenAIResponsesLLMService using the Responses API, with a dedicated
adapter that converts LLMContext messages to Responses API input items
(system→developer, tool_calls→function_call, tool→function_call_output,
multimodal content conversion, and tools schema flattening).
- New adapter: open_ai_responses_adapter.py
- New service: openai/responses/llm.py
- Examples: 07-interruptible and 14-function-calling variants
- 19 unit tests for adapter conversion logic
- Eval entries for both examples
Rewrite docstrings to more clearly explain what SyncParallelPipeline
does: hold all output until every parallel branch finishes, so frames
produced in response to a single input are released together.
Adds a FrameOrder enum with ARRIVAL (default, existing behavior) and
PIPELINE (pushes frames in pipeline definition order). This lets callers
guarantee output ordering between parallel pipelines — e.g. ensuring
image frames precede audio frames — without needing a separate reordering
processor downstream.
Updates the 05-sync-speech-and-image example to use FrameOrder.PIPELINE,
removing the ImageBeforeAudioReorderer class entirely.
Add a processor after SyncParallelPipeline that ensures each image frame
precedes its corresponding TTS audio frames. SyncParallelPipeline batches
them together but doesn't guarantee branch ordering. The reorderer detects
when TTS frames arrive before their image (via context_id tracking) and
holds them until the image arrives.
Also rename ImageAudioSync to MarkImageForPlaybackSync for clarity.
Add a `sync_with_audio` field to `OutputImageRawFrame` that routes image
frames through the audio queue in the output transport, ensuring images
are only displayed after all preceding audio has been sent. This enables
proper audio/image synchronization in pipelines like the calendar month
narration example.
Update the 05-sync-speech-and-image example to use an `ImageAudioSync`
processor that sets this flag on image frames.
The FrameProcessor two-queue architecture processes SystemFrames and
non-SystemFrames on separate concurrent async tasks. Both paths called
SyncParallelPipeline.process_frame(), which used the same per-pipeline
sink queues. A SystemFrame's wait_for_sync could steal frames from a
concurrent non-SystemFrame's wait_for_sync, corrupting synchronization
and stalling the pipeline.
This was triggered by the auto-embedded RTVI processor (added in
v0.0.101) which floods OutputTransportMessageUrgentFrame SystemFrames
through the pipeline during LLM responses.
Fix: SystemFrames (except EndFrame) now take a fast path — passed
through internal pipelines and pushed downstream directly without
touching the sink queues or drain logic. EndFrame retains the full
drain behavior as a lifecycle frame.
