claude_agent_sdk's _AsyncioTaskHandle.wait() uses
`with suppress(asyncio.CancelledError)` to silence the inner read
task's expected cancellation, but it also swallows the outer task's
cancellation if it lands on the same await — causing cancel_task to
time out.
Bypass `async with ClaudeSDKClient` and drive connect/disconnect
ourselves so disconnect() runs in a finally where the outer
CancelledError has already been raised and suspended by Python's
exception machinery, out of reach of the SDK's suppress.
Adapts the pipecat-subagents `examples/README.md` to the new
layout (`multi-task/` umbrella, `local-handoff/`, `distributed-handoff/`,
`remote-proxy-assistant/`, `parallel-debate/`, `code-assistant/`),
updates the agent→task / job-RPC vocabulary, drops the
single-agent and llm-and-flows examples (gone in the port), and
adds a new section for the PGMQ handoff transport.
Demonstrates the WebSocket proxy tasks: a local `main.py` voice
bot uses `WebSocketProxyClientTask` to forward bus messages
(including `BusFrameMessage`s) to a remote `assistant.py`
FastAPI server. Each incoming connection spawns a
`WebSocketProxyServerTask` plus an `LLMTask` assistant on a
per-session `PipelineRunner`.
Two transports of the same shape: a main task that hosts the
voice pipeline plus a network-backed `TaskBus` (`RedisBus` or
`PgmqBus`), and a standalone `llm.py` worker process for the
greeter / support LLM. Workers connect to the same bus channel,
register on the shared `TaskRegistry`, and the main task waits
on `runner.registry.watch("greeter", ...)` before sending the
welcome activation so it doesn't fire before the worker is up.
A voice moderator that fans out a debate topic to three worker
tasks (advocate, critic, analyst) via `task.job_group(...)`,
then synthesizes their replies. Workers are `LLMContextTask`s
that keep their own conversation context across rounds and use
the assistant-aggregator's `on_assistant_turn_stopped` event
to ship the completed turn back as a job response.
Variant of the local handoff example with per-task TTS voices.
Each child task wraps the LLM with its own `CartesiaTTSService`
in a custom pipeline override, so the main task has no TTS and
audio comes from whichever child is active over the bus.
Voice code assistant that dispatches questions to a Claude Agent
SDK worker. The main task runs the voice pipeline (STT + LLM + TTS)
and an `ask_code` direct function. `CodeWorker` is a bus-only
`BaseTask` spawned on the runner: it accepts `@job`-style
requests through the bus, queues them onto an asyncio queue, and
runs them sequentially through a persistent Claude SDK session so
follow-ups share context. The example shows the job-RPC surface
(`task.job("code_worker", ...)`), bus-only tasks (no pipeline),
and the `pipeline_task` field on `FunctionCallParams`.
Two LLM tasks (greeter and support) handing off to each other over
the local `AsyncQueueBus`. The main task owns the transport
pipeline (STT, TTS, transport I/O) and the child tasks each run
their own LLM behind a `BusBridgeProcessor`. Each child uses
`bridged=()` so `PipelineTask` auto-wraps its pipeline with
the bus edge processors, and `transfer_to_agent` / `end_conversation`
tools demonstrate `handoff_to(...)` and `end(...)`.
