+## Changelog Entries
+
+Every pull request that makes a user-facing change should include a changelog entry. We use a changelog fragment system to avoid merge conflicts.
+
+### Creating a Changelog Fragment
+
+1. Create a new file in the `changelog/` directory with this naming pattern:
+
+   ```
+   <PR_number>.<type>.md
+   ```
+
+2. Choose the appropriate type:
+
+   - `added.md` - New features
+   - `changed.md` - Changes in existing functionality
+   - `deprecated.md` - Soon-to-be removed features
+   - `removed.md` - Removed features
+   - `fixed.md` - Bug fixes
+   - `security.md` - Security fixes
+   - `other.md` - Other changes (documentation, dependencies, etc.)
+
+3. Write your changelog entry as a Markdown bullet point. Include the `-` at the start:
+
+**Example files:**
+
+`changelog/1234.added.md`:
+
+```markdown
+- Added support for Anthropic Claude 3.5 Sonnet with improved streaming performance.
+```
+
+`changelog/5678.fixed.md`:
+
+```markdown
+- Fixed an issue where audio frames were dropped during high-load scenarios.
+```
+
+**For entries with nested bullets:**
+
+`changelog/1234.changed.md`:
+
+```markdown
+- Updated service configuration:
+
+  - Changed default timeout to 30 seconds
+  - Added retry logic for failed connections
+```
+
+### Multiple Changes in One PR
+
+**Different types of changes:** Create separate fragment files for each type:
+
+```
+changelog/1234.added.md
+changelog/1234.fixed.md
+```
+
+**Multiple changes of the same type:** Create numbered fragment files:
+
+```
+changelog/1234.changed.md
+changelog/1234.changed.2.md
+```
+
+**Related changes:** Use nested bullets in a single fragment:
+
+```markdown
+- Updated service configuration:
+
+  - Changed default timeout to 30 seconds
+  - Added retry logic for failed connections
+```
+
+**Rule of thumb:** One logical change per fragment file. If changes are unrelated, use separate files.
+
+### Preview Your Changes
+
+To see what your changelog entry will look like:
+
+```bash
+towncrier build --draft --version Unreleased
+```
+
+This won't modify any files, just show you a preview.
+
+### When to Skip Changelog Entries
+
+You can skip adding a changelog entry for:
+
+- Documentation-only changes
+- Internal refactoring with no user-facing impact
+- Test-only changes
+- CI/build configuration changes
+
+If you're unsure whether your change needs a changelog entry, ask in your PR!

+- Introducing user turn strategies. User turn strategies indicate when the user turn starts or stops. In conversational agents, these are often referred to as start/stop speaking or turn-taking plans or policies.
+
+  User turn start strategies indicate when the user starts speaking (e.g. using VAD events or when a user says one or more words).
+
+  User turn stop strategies indicate when the user stops speaking (e.g. using an end-of-turn detection model or by observing incoming transcriptions).
+
+  A list of strategies can be specified for both strategies; strategies are evaluated in order until one evaluates to true.
+
+  Available user turn start strategies:
+    - VADUserTurnStartStrategy
+    - TranscriptionUserTurnStartStrategy
+    - MinWordsUserTurnStartStrategy
+    - ExternalUserTurnStartStrategy
+
+  Available user turn stop strategies:
+    - TranscriptionUserTurnStopStrategy
+    - TurnAnalyzerUserTurnStopStrategy
+    - ExternalUserTurnStopStrategy
+
+  The default strategies are:
+
+    - start: [VADUserTurnStartStrategy, TranscriptionUserTurnStartStrategy]
+    - stop: [TranscriptionUserTurnStopStrategy]
+
+  Turn strategies are configured when setting up `LLMContextAggregatorPair`. For example:
+
+  ```python
+  context_aggregator = LLMContextAggregatorPair(
+      context,
+      user_params=LLMUserAggregatorParams(

+              ],
+          )
+      ),
+  )
+  ```
+
+  In order to use the user turn strategies you must update to the new universal `LLMContext` and `LLMContextAggregatorPair`.

+- Introducing user mute strategies. User mute strategies indicate when user input should be muted based on the current system state.
+
+  In conversational agents, user mute strategies are used to prevent user input from interrupting bot speech, tool execution, or other critical system operations.

+    with speaker diarization and intelligent speaker management. Key features:
 
-    1. Speaker Diarization
+    1. Speaker Diarization (STT)
        - Automatically identifies and distinguishes between different speakers
        - First speaker is identified as 'S1', others get subsequent IDs
        - Uses `enable_diarization` parameter to manage speaker detection
 
-    2. Smart Speaker Control
+    2. Smart Speaker Control (STT)
        - `focus_speakers` parameter lets you target specific speakers (e.g. ["S1"])
        - Other speakers will be wrapped in PASSIVE tags
        - Only processes speech from focused speakers
        - Words from all speakers are wrapped with XML tags for clear speaker identification
        - Other speakers' speech only sent when focused speaker is active
 
-    3. Voice Activity Detection
+    3. Voice Activity Detection (STT)
        - Built-in VAD using `enable_vad` parameter
        - Remove `vad_analyzer` from `transport` config to use module's VAD
        - Emits speaker started/stopped events
 
-    4. Configuration Options
+    4. Text-to-Speech (TTS)
+       - Low latency streaming audio synthesis
+       - Multiple voice options available including `sarah`, `theo`, `megan` and `jack`
+
+    5. Configuration Options
        - `operating_point` parameter defaults to `ENHANCED` for optimal accuracy
        - Configurable `end_of_utterance_silence_trigger` (default 0.5s)
        - Customizable speaker formatting
        - Additional diarization settings available

-    This example will use diarization within our STT service and output the words spoken by
-    each individual speaker and wrap them with XML tags for the LLM to process. Note the
-    instructions in the system context for the LLM. This greatly improves the conversation
-    experience by allowing the LLM to understand who is speaking in a multi-party call.
+    This example demonstrates a complete Speechmatics integration with both Speech-to-Text
+    and Text-to-Speech services:
 
-    By default, this example will use our ENHANCED operating point, which is optimized for
-    high accuracy. You can change this by setting the `operating_point` parameter to a different
-    value.
+    STT Features:
+    - Diarization to identify and distinguish between different speakers
+    - Words spoken by each speaker are wrapped with XML tags for LLM processing
+    - System context instructions help the LLM understand multi-party conversations
+    - ENHANCED operating point by default for optimal accuracy
 
-    For more information on operating points, see the Speechmatics documentation:
-    https://docs.speechmatics.com/rt-api-ref
+    TTS Features:
+    - Low latency streaming audio synthesis
+    - Multiple voice options available including `sarah`, `theo`, `megan` and `jack`

-A conversational AI bot using Gemini for both LLM and TTS.
-
-This example demonstrates how to use Gemini's TTS capabilities with the new
-GeminiTTSService, which uses Gemini's TTS-specific models instead of Google Cloud TTS.
-
-Features showcased:
-- Gemini LLM for conversation
-- Gemini TTS with natural voice control
-- Support for different voice personalities
-- Style and tone control through natural language prompts
-
-Run with:
-    python examples/foundational/gemini-tts.py
-
-Make sure to set your environment variables:
-    export GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

-            IMPORTANT: Since you're using Gemini TTS which supports natural voice control, you can include speaking instructions in your responses. For example:
-            - "Say cheerfully: Welcome to our conversation!"

-            - "Speak in an excited whisper: I have some great news to share!"

+            - [sigh] - Insert a sigh sound
+            - [laughing] - Insert a laugh
+            - [uhm] - Insert a hesitation sound
+            - [whispering] - Speak the next part in a whisper
+            - [shouting] - Speak the next part louder
+            - [extremely fast] - Speak the next part very quickly
+            - [short pause], [medium pause], [long pause] - Add pauses for dramatic effect
 
-            Feel free to use natural language instructions to control your voice style, tone, pace, and emotion. The TTS system will interpret these instructions and adjust the speech accordingly.
+            Examples:
+            - "Well [sigh] that's a tricky question."
+            - "[laughing] That's a great joke!"
