Route LLMFullResponseEndFrame through the serialization queue instead
of pushing it directly downstream when push_text_frames is enabled.
This ensures the frame is emitted only after the audio context is
fully drained, preserving correct ordering relative to TTSTextFrames.
Previously, the final sentence TTSTextFrame would arrive at the
LLMAssistantAggregator after LLMFullResponseEndFrame, causing it to
be dropped from the conversation context (especially with RTVI text
input where no subsequent interruption would flush the orphaned text).
Cancel the deferral timeout task and clear the pending EndFrame during
disconnect, which could otherwise be left dangling after a
CancelFrame-triggered shutdown.
When an interruption arrives before any LLM text reaches run_tts, the
turn context ID exists but was never registered via create_audio_context.
Calling flush_audio for this unregistered context sends a message to the
provider (e.g. ElevenLabs) with a context_id it has never seen, which
implicitly creates a server-side context that is never closed. After
enough rapid interruptions these phantom contexts accumulate and exceed
the providers limit (ElevenLabs: 5 simultaneous contexts, 1008 policy
violation).
Guard the flush call with audio_context_available so it only fires when
the context was actually opened.
Fixes#4114
When an EndFrame arrives while the bot is mid-response, it is deferred
until turn_complete is received. If turn_complete never arrives, the
EndFrame gets stuck forever and the pipeline hangs indefinitely.
Add a 30-second timeout: if turn_complete hasn't arrived by then, the
deferred EndFrame is released anyway with a warning log. The timeout
is cancelled if turn_complete arrives normally.
We observed a case where a deferred EndFrame was never released in
Gemini Live, causing the pipeline to hang indefinitely. The EndFrame
deferral mechanism waits for _handle_msg_turn_complete to set
_bot_is_responding back to False, but turn_complete messages were only
processed if they also contained usage_metadata. If Gemini ever sent
turn_complete without usage_metadata, the message would be silently
dropped and the deferred EndFrame would never be released.
Now turn_complete is always handled regardless of usage_metadata
presence, with usage_metadata processing only when available.
Note: we have not actually observed a turn_complete without
usage_metadata in practice, so this is a theoretical fix for the
EndFrame-deferral hang. The actual root cause of the observed hang
may lie elsewhere.
- Route audio through audio contexts (append_to_audio_context) instead of
pushing frames directly, enabling proper turn management and interruptions
- Add push_stop_frames and push_start_frame so the base class handles
TTSStartedFrame/TTSStoppedFrame lifecycle
- Remove manual context_id tracking (self._context_id) in favor of
get_active_audio_context_id()
- Don't call remove_audio_context on "complete" — Smallest sends one
per request, not per turn; let the base class timeout handle cleanup
- Guard v2-only params (consistency, similarity, enhancement) so they
aren't sent to lightning-v3.1
- Remove request_id from request payload (not a documented request field)
- Add flush_audio override to send flush to WebSocket
Adds SmallestTTSService, a WebSocket-based TTS service using Smallest AI's
Lightning v3.1 model. Follows current Pipecat service conventions:
- SmallestTTSSettings dataclass with runtime-updatable settings (voice,
language, speed, etc.)
- Reconnects on model change; keepalive every 30s to prevent idle timeout
- TTS settings default to None so the API applies its own defaults
- Model enum: SmallestTTSModel.LIGHTNING_V3_1
Includes a foundational example (07zl-interruptible-smallest.py) using
Deepgram STT + Smallest TTS + OpenAI LLM.
STT integration will follow in a separate PR once the hallucination/finalize
behaviour is resolved.

Gets Gemini 3 support to the point where it works with:
- The "legacy" pattern from the previous (removed) 26- example
- inference_on_context_initialization=True (the default)
- inference_on_context_initialization=False
Add `domain` field to AssemblyAISTTSettings to support AssemblyAI's
streaming API `domain` query parameter, enabling specialized recognition
modes like Medical Mode (`medical-v1`).

Add warnings in SpeechTimeoutUserTurnStopStrategy and
TurnAnalyzerUserTurnStopStrategy when stop_secs differs from the
recommended default (0.2s) or when stop_secs >= STT p99 latency,
which collapses the STT wait timeout to 0s. Document the stop_secs=0.2
assumption in stt_latency.py.
Send a setup message with client_req_id before the first text message
for each context, matching Gradium multiplexing protocol. This allows
Gradium to associate each session with its setup configuration when
using close_ws_on_eos=False.
The AudioHook protocol requires every message to carry a `parameters`
object. `_create_message` conditionally included it only when parameters
were truthy, so pong responses and closed responses without
outputVariables were sent without the field.
Clients that validate message structure (including the Genesys reference
implementation) rejected these messages, which broke server sequence
tracking and prevented outputVariables from reaching the Architect flow.

Align with the OpenTelemetry GenAI semantic convention
gen_ai.system_instructions for system prompts. The old "system"
attribute name was unrelated to gen_ai.system (which is for
provider name).
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".
