fix: add type annotations to event_handler decorator

Add proper generic type annotations to the event_handler decorator
so that static type checkers (pyright, mypy) understand the decorated
function is returned and used, eliminating false reportUnusedFunction
warnings.

Changes:
- Import TypeVar and Callable from typing
- Define F TypeVar bound to Callable[..., Any]
- Add Callable[[F], F] return type to event_handler method
- Add F type annotations to inner decorator function

+## [0.0.99] - 2026-01-13
+
+### Added
+
+- 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(
+          user_turn_strategies=UserTurnStrategies(
+              stop=[
+                  TurnAnalyzerUserTurnStopStrategy(turn_analyzer=LocalSmartTurnAnalyzerV3(params=SmartTurnParams())
+                  )
+              ],
+          )
+      ),
+  )
+  ```
+
+  In order to use the user turn strategies you must update to the new
+  universal `LLMContext` and `LLMContextAggregatorPair`.
+  (PR [#3045](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3045))
+
+- Added `RNNoiseFilter` for real-time noise suppression using RNNoise neural
+  network via pyrnnoise library.
+  (PR [#3205](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3205))
+
+- Added `GrokRealtimeLLMService` for xAI's Grok Voice Agent API with real-time
+  voice conversations:
+
+  - Support for real-time audio streaming with WebSocket connection
+  - Built-in server-side VAD (Voice Activity Detection)
+  - Multiple voice options: Ara, Rex, Sal, Eve, Leo
+  - Built-in tools support: web_search, x_search, file_search
+  - Custom function calling with standard Pipecat tools schema
+  - Configurable audio formats (PCM at 8kHz-48kHz)
+    (PR [#3267](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3267))
+
+- Added an approximation of TTFB for Ultravox.
+  (PR [#3268](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3268))
+
+- Added a new `AudioContextTTSService` to the TTS service base classes. The
+  `AudioContextWordTTSService` now inherits from `AudioContextTTSService` and
+  `WebsocketWordTTSService`.
+  (PR [#3289](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3289))
+
+- `LLMUserAggregator` now exposes the following events:
+
+  - `on_user_turn_started`: triggered when a user turn starts
+  - `on_user_turn_stopped`: triggered when a user turn ends
+  - `on_user_turn_stop_timeout`: triggered when a user turn does not stop
+    and times out
+    (PR [#3291](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3291))
+
+- 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.
+
+  A list of strategies can be specified; all strategies are evaluated for
+  every frame so that each strategy can maintain its internal state. A user
+  frame is muted if any of the configured strategies indicates it should be
+  muted.
+
+  Available user mute strategies:
+
+  - `FirstSpeechUserMuteStrategy`
+  - `MuteUntilFirstBotCompleteUserMuteStrategy`
+  - `AlwaysUserMuteStrategy`
+  - `FunctionCallUserMuteStrategy`
+
+  User mute strategies replace the legacy `STTMuteFilter` and provide a more
+  flexible and composable approach to muting user input.
+
+  User mute strategies are configured when setting up the
+  `LLMContextAggregatorPair`. For example:
+
+  ```python
+  context_aggregator = LLMContextAggregatorPair(
+      context,
+      user_params=LLMUserAggregatorParams(
+          user_mute_strategies=[
+              FirstSpeechUserMuteStrategy(),
+          ]
+      ),
+  )
+  ```
+
+  In order to use user mute strategies you should update to the new universal
+  `LLMContext` and `LLMContextAggregatorPair`.
+  (PR [#3292](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3292))
+
+- Added `use_ssl` parameter to `NvidiaSTTService`, `NvidiaSegmentedSTTService`
+  and `NvidiaTTSService`.
+  (PR [#3300](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3300))
+
+- Added `enable_interruptions` constructor argument to all user turn
+  strategies. This tells the `LLMUserAggregator` to push or not push an
+  `InterruptionFrame`.
+  (PR [#3316](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3316))
+
+- Added `split_sentences` parameter to `SpeechmaticsSTTService` to control
+  sentence splitting behavior for finals on sentence boundaries.
+  (PR [#3328](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3328))
+
+- Added word-level timestamp support to `AzureTTSService` for accurate
+  text-to-audio synchronization.
+  (PR [#3334](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3334))
+
+- Added `pronunciation_dict_id` parameter to `CartesiaTTSService.InputParams`
+  and `CartesiaHttpTTSService.InputParams` to support Cartesia's pronunciation
+  dictionary feature for custom pronunciations.
+  (PR [#3346](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3346))
+
+- Added support for using the HeyGen LiveAvatar API with the `HeyGenTransport`
+  (see https://www.liveavatar.com/).
+  (PR [#3357](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3357))
+
+- Added image support to `OpenAIRealtimeLLMService` via `InputImageRawFrame`:
+
+  - New `start_video_paused` parameter to control initial video input state
+  - New `video_frame_detail` parameter to set image processing quality
+    ("auto",
+    "low", or "high"). This corresponds to OpenAI Realtime's `image_detail`
+    parameter.
+  - `set_video_input_paused()` method to pause/resume video input at runtime
+  - `set_video_frame_detail()` method to adjust video frame quality
+    dynamically
+  - Automatic rate limiting (1 frame per second) to prevent API overload
+    (PR [#3360](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3360))
+
+- Added `UserTurnProcessor`, a frame processor built on `UserTurnController`
+  that pushes `UserStartedSpeakingFrame` and `UserStoppedSpeakingFrame` frames
+  and interruptions based on the controller's user turn strategies.
+  (PR [#3372](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3372))
+
+- Added `UserTurnController` to manage user turns. It emits
+  `on_user_turn_started`, `on_user_turn_stopped`, and
+  `on_user_turn_stop_timeout` events, and can be integrated into processors to
+  detect and handle user turns. `LLMUserAggregator` and `UserTurnProcessor` are
+  implemented using this controller.
+  (PR [#3372](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3372))
+
+- Added `should_interrupt` property to `DeepgramFluxSTTService`,
+  `DeepgramSTTService`, and `SpeechmaticsSTTService` to configure whether the
+  bot should be interrupted when the external service detects user speech.
+  (PR [#3374](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3374))
+
+- `LLMAssistantAggregator` now exposes the following events:
+
+  - `on_assistant_turn_started`: triggered when the assistant turn starts
+  - `on_assistant_turn_stopped`: triggered when the assistant turn ends
+  - `on_assistant_thought`: triggered when there's an assistant thought
+    available
+    (PR [#3385](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3385))
+
+- Added `KrispVivaTurn` analyzer for end of turn detection using the Krisp VIVA
+  SDK (requires `krisp_audio`).
+  (PR [#3391](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3391))
+
+- Added support for setting up a pipeline task from external files. You can now
+  register custom pipeline task setup files by setting the
+  `PIPECAT_SETUP_FILES` environment variable. This variable should contain a
+  colon-separated list of Python files (e.g. `export
+PIPECAT_SETUP_FILES="setup1.py:setup.py:..."`). Each file must define a
+  function with the following signature:
+
+  ```python
+  async def setup_pipeline_task(task: PipelineTask):
+      ...
+  ```
+
+  (PR [#3397](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3397))
+
+- Added a keepalive task for `InworldTTSService` to keep the service connected
+  in the event of no generations for longer periods of time.
+  (PR [#3403](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3403))
+
+- Added `enable_vad` to `Params` for use in the `GladiaSTTService`. When
+  enabled, `GladiaSTTService` acts as the turn controller, emitting
+  `UserStartedSpeakingFrame`, `UserStoppedSpeakingFrame`, and optionally
+  `InterruptionFrame`.
+  (PR [#3404](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3404))
+
+- Added `should_interrupt` property to `GladiaSTTService` to configure whether
+  the bot should be interrupted when the external service detects user speech.
+  (PR [#3404](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3404))
+
+- Added `VonageFrameSerializer` for the Vonage Video API Audio Connector
+  WebSocket protocol.
+  (PR [#3410](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3410))
+
+- Added `append_trailing_space` parameter to `TTSService` to automatically
+  append a trailing space to text before sending to TTS, helping prevent some
+  services from vocalizing trailing punctuation.
+  (PR [#3424](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3424))
+
+### Changed
+
+- Updated `ElevenLabsRealtimeSTTService` to accept the
+  `include_language_detection` parameter to detect language.
+
+  ```python
+    stt = ElevenLabsRealtimeSTTService(
+        api_key=os.getenv("ELEVENLABS_API_KEY"),
+        include_language_detection=True
+    )
+  ```
+
+  (PR [#3216](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3216))
+
+- Updated `SpeechmaticsSTTService` to use new Python Voice SDK with improved
+  VAD, Smart Turn capabilities, and brings dramatic improvements to latency
+  without any impact on accuracy. Use the `turn_detection_mode` parameter to control
+  the endpointing of speech, with `TurnDetectionMode.EXTERNAL` (default),
+  `TurnDetectionMode.ADAPTIVE`, or `TurnDetectionMode.SMART_TURN`.
+
+  ```python
+      stt = SpeechmaticsSTTService(
+          api_key=os.getenv("SPEECHMATICS_API_KEY"),
+          params=SpeechmaticsSTTService.InputParams(
+              language=Language.EN,
+              turn_detection_mode=SpeechmaticsSTTService.TurnDetectionMode.ADAPTIVE,
+              speaker_active_format="<{speaker_id}>{text}</{speaker_id}>",
+          ),
+      )
+  ```
+
+  (PR [#3225](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3225))
+
+- `daily-python` updated to 0.23.0.
+  (PR [#3257](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3257))
+
+- `TranscriptionFrame` and `InterimTranscriptionFrame` produced by
+  `DailyTransport` now include the transport source (i.e., the originating
+  audio track).
+  (PR [#3257](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3257))
+
+- Updates to Inworld TTS services:
+
+  - Improved `InworldTTSService`'s websocket implementation to better flush
+    and close context to better handle long inputs.
+  - Improved docstrings for `InworldTTSService` and `InworldHttpTTSService`.
+    (PR [#3288](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3288))
+
+- Improved the error handling and reconnection logic for `WebsocketServer` by
+  distinguishing between errors when disconnecting and websocket communication
+  errors.
+  (PR [#3392](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3392))
+
+- Updated `DeepgramSTTService` to push user started/stopped speaking and
+  interruption frames when `vad_enabled` is set to true. This centralizes the
+  frames into the service, removing the need to have your application code
+  handle Deepgram's events and push these frames.
+  (PR [#3314](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3314))
+
+- Added encoding validation to `DeepgramTTSService` to prevent unsupported
+  encodings from reaching the API. The service now raises `ValueError` at
+  initialization with a clear error message.
+  (PR [#3329](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3329))
+
+- Updated `read_audio_frame` & `read_video_frame` methods in
+  `SmallWebRTCClient` to check if the track is enabled before logging a
+  warning.
+  (PR [#3336](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3336))
+
+- Updated `CartesiaTTSService` to support setting `language=None`, resulting in
+  Cartesia auto-detecting the language of the conversation.
+  (PR [#3366](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3366))
+
+- The bundled Smart Turn weights are now updated to v3.2, which has better
+  handling of short utterances, and is more robust against background noise.
+  (PR [#3367](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3367))
+
+- Updated `SpeechmaticsSTTService` dependency to `speechmatics-voice[smart]>=0.2.6`
+  (PR [#3371](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3371))
+
+- Smart Turn now takes into account `vad_start_seconds` when buffering audio,
+  meaning that the start of the turn audio is not cut off. This improves
+  accuracy for short utterances.
+
+- The default value of `pre_speech_ms` is now set to 500ms for Smart Turn.
+  (PR [#3377](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3377))
+
+- Improved Krisp SDK management to allow `KrispVivaTurn` and `KrispVivaFilter`
+  to share a single SDK instance within the same process.
+  (PR [#3391](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3391))
+
+- Updated default model for `GroqTTSService` to `canopylabs/orpheus-v1-english`
+  and voice ID to `autumn`.
+  (PR [#3399](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3399))
+
+- Enhanced `FastAPIWebsocketTransport` with optional protocol-level audio
+  packetization via the `fixed_audio_packet_size` parameter to support media
+  endpoints requiring strict framing and real-time pacing.
+  (PR [#3410](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3410))
+
+- `DeepgramTTSService` and `RimeTTSService` now set `append_trailing_space` to
+  `True` to prevent punctuation (e.g., “dot”) from being pronounced.
+  (PR [#3424](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3424))
+
+- Updated `GeminiLiveLLMService` to push `LLMThoughtStartFrame`,
+  `LLMThoughtTextFrame`, and `LLMThoughtEndFrame` when the model returns
+  thought content.
+  (PR [#3431](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3431))
+
+### Deprecated
+
+- `pipecat.audio.interruptions.MinWordsInterruptionStrategy` is deprecated. Use
+  `pipecat.turns.user_start.MinWordsUserTurnStartStrategy` with
+  `LLMUserAggregator`'s new `user_turn_strategies` parameter instead.
+  (PR [#3045](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3045))
+
+- `FrameProcessor.interruption_strategies` is deprecated, use
+  `LLMUserAggregator`'s new `user_turn_strategies` parameter instead.
+  (PR [#3045](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3045))
+
+- The `LLMUserAggregatorParams` and `LLMAssistantAggregatorParams` classes in
+  `pipecat.processors.aggregators.llm_response` are now deprecated. Use the new
+  universal `LLMContext` and `LLMContextAggregatorPair` instead.
+  (PR [#3045](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3045))
+
+- Deprecated the `emulated` field in the `UserStartedSpeakingFrame` and
+  `UserStoppedSpeakingFrame` frames.
+  (PR [#3045](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3045))
+
+- `EmulateUserStartedSpeakingFrame` and `EmulateUserStoppedSpeakingFrame`
+  frames are deprecated.
+  (PR [#3045](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3045))
+
+- ⚠️ `TransportParams.turn_analyzer` is deprecated and might result in
+  unexpected behavior, use `LLMUserAggregator`'s new `user_turn_strategies`
+  parameter instead.
+  (PR [#3045](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3045))
+
+- For `SpeechmaticsSTTService`, the `end_of_utterance_mode` parameter is
+  deprecated. Use the new `turn_detection_mode` parameter instead, with
+  `TurnDetectionMode.EXTERNAL`,`TurnDetectionMode.ADAPTIVE`, or
+  `TurnDetectionMode.SMART_TURN`. The `enable_vad` parameter is also
+  deprecated and is inferred from the `turn_detection_mode`.
+  (PR [#3225](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3225))
+
+- `OpenAILLMContext` and its associated things (context aggregators, etc.) are
+  now deprecated in favor of the universal `LLMContext` and its associated
+  things.
+
+  From the developer's point of view, switching to using `LLMContext`
+  machinery will usually be a matter of going from this:
+
+  ```python
+  context = OpenAILLMContext(messages, tools)
+  context_aggregator = llm.create_context_aggregator(context)
+  ```
+
+  To this:
+
+  ```
+  context = LLMContext(messages, tools)
+  context_aggregator = LLMContextAggregatorPair(context)
+  ```
+
+  (PR [#3263](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3263))
+
+- `STTMuteFilter` is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Use
+  `LLMUserAggregator`'s new `user_mute_strategies` instead.
+  (PR [#3292](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3292))
+
+- `FrameProcessor.interruptions_allowed` is now deprecated, use
+  `LLMUserAggregator`'s new parameter `user_mute_strategies` instead.
+  (PR [#3297](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3297))
+
+- `PipelineParams.allow_interruptions` is now deprecated, use
+  `LLMUserAggregator`'s new parameter `user_turn_strategies` instead. For
+  example, to disable interruptions but still get user turns you can do:
+
+  ```python
+  context_aggregator = LLMContextAggregatorPair(
+      context,
+      user_params=LLMUserAggregatorParams(
+          user_turn_strategies=UserTurnStrategies(
+              start=[TranscriptionUserTurnStartStrategy(enable_interruptions=False)],
+          ),
+      ),
+  )
+  ```
+
+  (PR [#3297](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3297))
+
+- `TranscriptProcessor` and related data classes and frames
+  (`TranscriptionMessage`, `ThoughtTranscriptionMessage`,
+  `TranscriptionUpdateFrame`) are deprecated. Use `LLMUserAggregator`'s and
+  `LLMAssistantAggregator`'s new events (`on_user_turn_stopped` and
+  `on_assistant_turn_stopped`) instead.
+  (PR [#3385](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3385))
+
+- Deprecated support for the `vad_events` `LiveOptions` in
+  `DeepgramSTTService`. Instead, use a local Silero VAD for VAD events.
+  Additionally, deprecated `should_interrupt` which will be removed along with
+  `vad_events` support in a future release.
+  (PR [#3386](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3386))
+
+- Loading external observers from files is deprecated, use the new pipeline
+  task setup files and `PIPECAT_SETUP_FILES` environment variable instead.
+  (PR [#3397](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3397))
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Improved error handling in `ElevenLabsRealtimeSTTService`
+  (PR [#3233](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3233))
+
+- Fixed an issue in `ElevenLabsRealtimeSTTService` causing an infinite loop
+  that blocks the process if the websocket disconnects due to an error
+  (PR [#3233](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3233))
+
+- Fixed a bug in `STTMuteFilter` where the user was not always muted during
+  function calls, especially when there were multiple simultaneous calls.
+  (PR [#3292](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3292))
+
+- Fixed a `RNNoiseFilter` issue that would cause a "[Errno 12] Cannot allocate
+  memory" error when processing silence audio frames.
+  (PR [#3322](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3322))
+
+- Updated `SpeechmaticsSTTService` for version `0.0.99+`:
+
+  - Fixed `SpeechmaticsSTTService` to listen for `VADUserStoppedSpeakingFrame`
+    in order to finalize transcription.
+  - Default to `TurnDetectionMode.FIXED` for Pipecat-controlled end of turn
+    detection.
+  - Only emit VAD + interruption frames if VAD is enabled within the plugin
+    (modes other than `TurnDetectionMode.FIXED` or `TurnDetectionMode.EXTERNAL`).
+    (PR [#3328](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3328))
+
+- Fixed an issue with function calling where a handler failing to invoke its
+  result callback could leave the context stuck in IN_PROGRESS, causing LLM
+  inference for subsequent function call results to block while waiting on the
+  unresolved call.
+  (PR [#3343](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3343))
+
+- Fixed an issue with DeepgramTTSService where the model would output "Dot"
+  instead of a period in some circumstances.

+
+- Fixed potential memory leaks and initialization issues in `KrispVivaFilter`
+  by improving SDK lifecycle management.
+  (PR [#3391](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3391))
+
+- Fixed timing issue in `BaseOutputTransport` where the bot speaking flag was
+  set after awaiting, allowing the event loop to re-enter the method before the
+  guard was set.
+  (PR [#3400](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3400))
+
+- Fixed parallel function calling when using Gemini thinking.
+  (PR [3420](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3420))
+
+- Fixed an issue in `traced_llm` where `model_name` in OpenTelemetry appears as

+  (PR [#3422](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3422))
+
+- Fixed an issue in `traced_tts`, `traced_gemini_live`, and
+  `traced_openai_realtime` where `model_name` in OpenTelemetry appears as
+  `unknown`.
+  (PR [#3428](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3428))
+
+- Fixed `request_image_frame` (for backwards compatibility) and restored
+  function-call–related fields in `UserImageRequestFrame` and
+  `UserImageRawFrame`, preventing a case where adding a non-LLM message to the
+  context could trigger duplicate LLM inferences (on image arrival and on
+  function-call result), potentially causing an infinite inference loop.
+  (PR [#3430](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3430))
+
+- Fixed `LLMContext.create_audio_message()` by correcting an internal helper
+  that was incorrectly declared async while being run in `asyncio.to_thread()`.
+  (PR [#3435](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3435))
+
+### Other
+
+- Added `52-live-transcription.py` foundational example demonstrating live
+  transcription and translation from English to Spanish. In this example, the
+  bot is not interruptible: as the user continues speaking, English
+  transcriptions are queued, and the bot continuously translates and speaks
+  each queued sentence in Spanish without being interrupted by new user speech.
+  (PR [#3316](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3316))
+
+- Added a new foundational example `53-concurrent-llm-evaluation.py` that shows
+  how to use `UserTurnProcessor`.
+  (PR [#3372](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3372))
+
+- Added a new foundational example `28-user-assistant-turns.py` that shows how
+  to use the new `LLMUserAggregator` and `LLMAssistantAggregator` events to
+  gather a conversation transcript.
+  (PR [#3385](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3385))

-- 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(
-          user_turn_strategies=UserTurnStrategies(

-                  )
-              ],
-          )
-      ),
-  )
-  ```
-
-  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.

-
-  * `FirstSpeechUserMuteStrategy`
