Add TTSSpeakFrame timing example

Demonstrates append_to_context=True for intro lines and the
on_function_calls_started + pause_frame_processing=True pattern
for tool-call filler, so injected speech lands in the transcript
in the correct turn order without overlapping the post-tool
LLM response.

+## [1.0.0] - 2026-04-14
+
+Migration guide: https://docs.pipecat.ai/pipecat/migration/migration-1.0
+
+### Added
+
+- Updated LemonSlice transport:
+    - Added `on_avatar_connected` and `on_avatar_disconnected` events triggered
+      when the avatar joins and leaves the room.
+    - Added `api_url` parameter to `LemonSliceNewSessionRequest` to allow
+      overriding the LemonSlice API endpoint.
+    - Added support for passing arbitrary named parameters to the LemonSlice
+      API endpoint.
+  (PR [#3995](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3995))
+
+- Added Inworld Realtime LLM service with WebSocket-based cascade STT/LLM/TTS,
+  semantic VAD, function calling, and Router support.
+  (PR [#4140](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4140))
+
+- ⚠️ Added WebSocket-based `OpenAIResponsesLLMService` as the new default for
+  the OpenAI Responses API. It maintains a persistent connection to
+  `wss://api.openai.com/v1/responses` and automatically uses
+  `previous_response_id` to send only incremental context, falling back to full
+  context on reconnection or cache miss. The previous HTTP-based implementation
+  is now available as `OpenAIResponsesHttpLLMService`.
+  (PR [#4141](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4141))
+
+- Added `group_parallel_tools` parameter to `LLMService` (default `True`). When
+  `True`, all function calls from the same LLM response batch share a group ID
+  and the LLM is triggered exactly once after the last call completes. Set to
+  `False` to trigger inference independently for each function call result as
+  it arrives.
+  (PR [#4217](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4217))
+
+- Added async function call support to `register_function()` and
+  `register_direct_function()` via `cancel_on_interruption=False`. When set to
+  `False`, the LLM continues the conversation immediately without waiting for
+  the function result. The result is injected back into the context as a
+  `developer` message once available, triggering a new LLM inference at that
+  point.
+  (PR [#4217](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4217))
+
+- Added `enable_prompt_caching` setting to `AWSBedrockLLMService` for Bedrock
+  ConverseStream prompt caching.
+  (PR [#4219](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4219))
+
+- Added support for streaming intermediate results from async function calls.
+  Call `result_callback` multiple times with
+  `properties=FunctionCallResultProperties(is_final=False)` to push incremental
+  updates, then call it once more (with `is_final=True`, the default) to
+  deliver the final result. Only valid for functions registered with
+  `cancel_on_interruption=False`.
+  (PR [#4230](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4230))
+
+- Added `LLMMessagesTransformFrame` to facilitate programmatically editing
+  context in a frame-based way.
+
+  The previous approach required the caller to directly grab a reference to
+  the context object, grab a "snapshot" of its messages _at that point in
+  time_, transform the messages, and then push an `LLMMessagesUpdateFrame` with
+  the transformed messages. This approach can lead to problems: what if there
+  had already been a change to the context queued in the pipeline? The
+  transformed messages would simply overwrite it without consideration.
+  (PR [#4231](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4231))
+
+- The development runner now exports a module-level `app` FastAPI instance
+  (`from pipecat.runner.run import app`) so you can register custom routes
+  before calling `main()`.
+  (PR [#4234](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4234))
+
+- `ToolsSchema` now accepts `custom_tools` for OpenAI LLM services
+  (`OpenAILLMService`, `OpenAIResponsesLLMService`,
+  `OpenAIResponsesHttpLLMService`, and `OpenAIRealtimeLLMService`), letting you
+  pass provider-specific tools like `tool_search` alongside standard function
+  tools.
+  (PR [#4248](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4248))
+
+- Added enhancements to `NvidiaTTSService`:
+
+  - Cross-sentence stitching: multiple sentences within an LLM turn are fed
+    into a single `SynthesizeOnline` gRPC stream for seamless audio across
+    sentence boundaries (requires Magpie TTS model v1.7.0+).
+  - `custom_dictionary` and `encoding` parameters for IPA-based custom
+    pronunciation and output audio encoding.
+  - Metrics generation (`can_generate_metrics` returns true) and
+    `stop_all_metrics()` when an audio context is interrupted.
+  - gRPC error handling around synthesis config retrieval
+    (`GetRivaSynthesisConfig`).
+  (PR [#4249](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4249))
+
+- Added `MistralTTSService` for streaming text-to-speech using Mistral's
+  Voxtral TTS API (`voxtral-mini-tts-2603`). Supports SSE-based audio streaming
+  with automatic resampling from the API's native 24kHz to any requested sample
+  rate. Requires the `mistral` optional extra (`pip install
+  pipecat-ai[mistral]`).
+  (PR [#4251](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4251))
+
+- Added `truncate_large_values` parameter to `LLMContext.get_messages()`. When
+  `True`, returns compact deep copies of messages with binary data (base64
+  images, audio) replaced by short placeholders and long string values in
+  LLM-specific messages recursively truncated. Useful for serialization,
+  logging, and debugging tools.
+  (PR [#4272](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4272))
+
+- `CartesiaSTTService` now supports runtime settings updates (e.g. changing
+  `language` or `model` via `STTUpdateSettingsFrame`). The service
+  automatically reconnects with the new parameters. Previously, settings
+  updates were silently ignored.
+  (PR [#4282](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4282))
+
+- Added `pcm_32000` and `pcm_48000` sample rate support to ElevenLabs TTS
+  services.
+  (PR [#4293](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4293))
+
+- Added `enable_logging` parameter to `ElevenLabsHttpTTSService`. Set to
+  `False` to enable zero retention mode (enterprise only).
+  (PR [#4293](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4293))
+
+### Changed
+
+- Updated `onnxruntime` from 1.23.2 to 1.24.3, adding support for Python 3.14.
+  (PR [#3984](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3984))
+
+- MCPClient now requires async with MCPClient(...) as mcp: or explicit
+  start()/close() calls to manage the connection lifecycle.
+  (PR [#4034](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4034))
+
+- ⚠️ Updated `langchain` extra to require langchain 1.x (from 0.3.x),
+  langchain-community 0.4.x (from 0.3.x), and langchain-openai 1.x (from
+  0.3.x). If you pin these packages in your project, update your pins
+  accordingly.
+  (PR [#4192](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4192))
+
+- `WebsocketService` reconnection errors are now non-fatal. When a websocket
+  service exhausts its reconnection attempts (either via exponential backoff or
+  quick failure detection), it emits a non-fatal `ErrorFrame` instead of a
+  fatal one. This allows application-level failover (e.g. `ServiceSwitcher`) to
+  handle the failure instead of killing the entire pipeline.
+  (PR [#4201](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4201))
+
+- Changed `GrokLLMService` default model from `grok-3-beta` to `grok-3`, now
+  that the model is generally available.
+  (PR [#4209](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4209))
+
+- `GoogleImageGenService` now defaults to `imagen-4.0-generate-001` (previously
+  `imagen-3.0-generate-002`).
+  (PR [#4213](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4213))
+
+- ⚠️ `BaseOpenAILLMService.get_chat_completions()` now accepts an `LLMContext`
+  instead of `OpenAILLMInvocationParams`. If you override this method, update
+  your signature accordingly.
+  (PR [#4215](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4215))
+
+- When multiple function calls are returned in a single LLM response, by
+  default (when `group_parallel_tools=True`) the LLM is now triggered exactly
+  once after the last call in the batch completes, rather than waiting for all
+  function calls.
+  (PR [#4217](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4217))
+
+- ⚠️ `LLMService.function_call_timeout_secs` now defaults to `None` instead of
+  `10.0`. Deferred function calls will run indefinitely unless a timeout is
+  explicitly set at the service level or per-call. If you relied on the
+  previous 10-second default, pass `function_call_timeout_secs=10.0`
+  explicitly.
+  (PR [#4224](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4224))
+
+- Updated `NvidiaTTSService`:
+
+  - Made `api_key` optional for local NIM deployments.
+  - Voice, language, and quality can be updated without reconnecting the gRPC
+    client; new values take effect on the next synthesis turn, not for the
+    current turn's in-flight requests.
+  - Replaced per-sentence synchronous `synthesize_online` calls with async
+    queue-backed gRPC streaming.
+  - Streaming now uses asyncio tasks with explicit gRPC cancellation on
+    interruption and stale-response filtering when a stream is aborted or
+    replaced.
+  - Renamed Riva references to Nemotron Speech in docs and messages.
+  - Disabled automatic TTS start frames at the service level
+    (`push_start_frame=False`) and emit `TTSStartedFrame` when a stitched
+    synthesis stream is started for a context.
+  (PR [#4249](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4249))
+
+### Removed
+
+- ⚠️ Removed `OpenPipeLLMService` and the `openpipe` extra. OpenPipe was
+  acquired by CoreWeave and the package is no longer maintained. If you were
+  using `openpipe` as an LLM provider, switch to the underlying provider
+  directly (e.g. `openai`). The OpenPipe interface can still be used with
+  `OpenAILLMService` by specifying a `base_url`.
+  (PR [#4191](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4191))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed `NoisereduceFilter`. Use system-level noise reduction or a
+  service-based alternative instead.
+  (PR [#4204](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4204))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated `vad_enabled` and `vad_audio_passthrough` transport

+  `camera_out_color` transport params. Use the `video_in_*` and `video_out_*`
+  equivalents instead.
+  (PR [#4204](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4204))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed `FrameProcessor.wait_for_task()`. Use `create_task()` and manage
+  tasks with the built-in `TaskManager` instead.
+  (PR [#4204](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4204))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated transport frames: `TransportMessageFrame`,
+  `TransportMessageUrgentFrame`, `InputTransportMessageUrgentFrame`,
+  `DailyTransportMessageFrame`, and `DailyTransportMessageUrgentFrame`. Use
+  `OutputTransportMessageFrame`, `OutputTransportMessageUrgentFrame`,
+  `InputTransportMessageFrame`, `DailyOutputTransportMessageFrame`, and

+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated `on_pipeline_ended`, `on_pipeline_cancelled`, and
+  `on_pipeline_stopped` events from `PipelineTask`. Use `on_pipeline_finished`
+  instead.
+  (PR [#4204](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4204))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed single-argument function call support from `LLMService`. Functions
+  must use named parameters instead of a single `arguments` parameter.
+  (PR [#4204](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4204))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed `FalSmartTurnAnalyzer` and `LocalSmartTurnAnalyzer`.
+  (PR [#4204](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4204))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed `RTVIObserver.errors_enabled` parameter.
+  (PR [#4204](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4204))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated RTVI models, frames, and processor methods including
+  `RTVIConfig`, `RTVIServiceConfig`, `RTVIServiceOptionConfig`, various
+  `RTVI*Data` models, `RTVIActionFrame`, and
+  `RTVIProcessor.handle_function_call`/`handle_function_call_start`. Use the
+  updated RTVI processor API instead.
+  (PR [#4204](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4204))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated `KeypadEntryFrame` alias.
+  (PR [#4204](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4204))

+- ⚠️ Removed `KrispFilter`. The `krisp` extra has been removed from
+  `pyproject.toml`.
+  (PR [#4204](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4204))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed `AudioBufferProcessor.user_continuous_stream` parameter. Use

+
+- ⚠️ Removed `VisionImageFrameAggregator` (from
+  `pipecat.processors.aggregators.vision_image_frame`). Vision/image handling
+  is now built into `LLMContext` (from

+  (PR [#4215](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4215))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated service-specific context and aggregator machinery,
+  which was superseded by the universal `LLMContext` system.
+
+  Service-specific classes removed: `AnthropicLLMContext`,
+  `AnthropicContextAggregatorPair`, `AWSBedrockLLMContext`,
+  `AWSBedrockContextAggregatorPair`, `OpenAIContextAggregatorPair`, and their
+  user/assistant aggregators. Also removed `create_context_aggregator()` from

+  transport.
+  (PR [#4229](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4229))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed `vad_analyzer` and `turn_analyzer` parameters from
+  `TransportParams` and all transport input classes, along with all deprecated
+  VAD/turn analysis logic in `BaseInputTransport`. VAD and turn detection are
+  now handled entirely by `LLMUserAggregator`.
+  (PR [#4229](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4229))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated `TranscriptionUserTurnStopStrategy` alias (deprecated
+  in 0.0.102). Use `SpeechTimeoutUserTurnStopStrategy` instead.
+  (PR [#4232](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4232))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated `vad_events` setting and `should_interrupt` parameter
+  from `DeepgramSTTService` (deprecated in 0.0.99). Use Silero VAD for voice
+  activity detection instead.
+  (PR [#4232](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4232))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated `send_transcription_frames` parameter from
+  `OpenAIRealtimeLLMService` (deprecated in 0.0.92). Transcription frames are
+  always sent.
+  (PR [#4232](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4232))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated `UserIdleProcessor` (deprecated in 0.0.100). Use
+  `LLMUserAggregator` with the `user_idle_timeout` parameter instead.
+  (PR [#4232](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4232))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated `UserBotLatencyLogObserver` (deprecated in 0.0.102).
+  Use `UserBotLatencyObserver` with its `on_latency_measured` event handler
+  instead.
+  (PR [#4232](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4232))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed the `riva` install extra. Use `nvidia` instead (`pip install
+  "pipecat-ai[nvidia]"`).
+  (PR [#4235](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4235))
+
+- Removed the empty `remote-smart-turn` install extra (was already a no-op).
+  (PR [#4235](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4235))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed `DeprecatedModuleProxy` and all service `__init__.py` re-export
+  shims. Flat imports like `from pipecat.services.openai import
+  OpenAILLMService` no longer work. Use the full submodule path instead: `from
+  pipecat.services.openai.llm import OpenAILLMService`. This is already the
+  established pattern across all examples and internal code.
+  (PR [#4239](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4239))
+
+- ⚠️ Removed deprecated `PIPECAT_OBSERVER_FILES` environment variable support.
+  Use `PIPECAT_SETUP_FILES` instead.
+  (PR [#4267](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4267))
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed `IdleFrameProcessor` where `asyncio.Event` was unconditionally cleared
+  in a `finally` block instead of only on the success path.
+  (PR [#3796](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/3796))
+
+- Fixed MCPClient opening a new connection for every tool call instead of
+  reusing the session.
+  (PR [#4034](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4034))
+
+- GoogleLLMService now applies a low-latency thinking default
+  (`thinking_level="minimal"`) for Gemini 3+ Flash models.
+  (PR [#4067](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4067))
+
+- Fixed `WebsocketService` entering an infinite reconnection loop when a server
+  accepts the WebSocket handshake but immediately closes the connection (e.g.
+  invalid API key, close code 1008). The service now detects connections that
+  fail repeatedly within seconds of being established and stops retrying after
+  3 consecutive quick failures.
+  (PR [#4201](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4201))
+
+- Fixed `InworldHttpTTSService` streaming responses crashing with
+  `UnicodeDecodeError` when multi-byte UTF-8 characters were split across chunk
+  boundaries. This caused TTS audio to cut off mid-sentence intermittently.
+  (PR [#4202](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4202))
+
+- Fixed a crash (`JSONDecodeError`) when a user interruption occurs while the
+  LLM is streaming function call arguments. Previously, the incomplete JSON
+  arguments were passed directly to `json.loads()`, causing an unhandled
+  exception. Affected services: OpenAI, Google (OpenAI-compatible), and
+  SambaNova.
+  (PR [#4203](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4203))
+
+- Fixed `BaseOutputTransport` discarding pending `UninterruptibleFrame` items
+  (e.g. function-call context updates) when an interruption arrived. The audio
+  task is now kept alive and only interruptible frames are drained when
+  uninterruptible frames are present in the queue.
+  (PR [#4217](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4217))
+
+- Fixed spurious LLM inference being triggered when a function call result
+  arrived while the user was actively speaking. The context frame is now
+  suppressed until the user stops speaking.
+  (PR [#4217](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4217))
+
+- Fixed `CartesiaTTSService` failing with "Context has closed" errors when
+  switching voice, model, or language via `TTSUpdateSettingsFrame`. The service
+  now automatically flushes the current audio context and opens a fresh one
+  when these settings change.
+  (PR [#4220](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4220))
+
+- Fixed duplicate LLM replies that could occur when multiple async function
+  call results arrived while an LLM request was already queued.
+  (PR [#4230](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4230))
+
+- Fixed undefined `_warn_deprecated_param` calls in `OpenAIRealtimeLLMService`
+  and `GrokRealtimeLLMService` for the deprecated `session_properties` init
+  parameter.
+  (PR [#4232](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4232))
+
+- Fixed Gemini Live bot hanging after a session resumption reconnect. Audio,
+  video, and text input were silently dropped after reconnecting because the
+  internal `_ready_for_realtime_input` flag was not being reset.
+  (PR [#4242](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4242))
+
+- Fixed `VADController` getting stuck in the `SPEAKING` state when audio frames
+  stop arriving mid-speech (e.g. user mutes mic). A new `audio_idle_timeout`
+  parameter (default 1s, set to 0 to disable) forces a transition back to
+  `QUIET` and emits `on_speech_stopped` when no audio is received while
+  speaking.
+  (PR [#4244](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4244))
+
+- Fixed `PipelineRunner._gc_collect()` blocking the event loop by running
+  `gc.collect()` synchronously. Now offloaded via `asyncio.to_thread` to avoid
+  stalling concurrent pipeline tasks.
+  (PR [#4255](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4255))
+
+- Fixed `ElevenLabsTTSService` incorrectly enabling `auto_mode` when using
+  `TextAggregationMode.TOKEN`. Auto mode disables server-side buffering and is
+  designed for complete sentences — enabling it with token streaming degraded
+  speech quality. The default is now derived automatically from the aggregation
+  strategy: `auto_mode=True` for `SENTENCE`, `auto_mode=False` for `TOKEN`.
+  Callers can still override by passing `auto_mode` explicitly.
+  (PR [#4265](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4265))
+
+- Fixed `ValueError: write to closed file` during pipeline shutdown when
+  observers were active. Observer proxy tasks are now cancelled before observer
+  resources are cleaned up.
+  (PR [#4267](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4267))
+
+- Fixed delayed turn completion when STT transcripts arrive after the p99
+  timeout. Previously, a late transcript (beyond the p99 window) would fall
+  through to the 5-second `user_turn_stop_timeout` fallback. Now the turn stop
+  triggers immediately when the late transcript arrives.
+  (PR [#4283](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4283))
+
+- Fixed `ElevenLabsTTSService` ignoring `enable_logging=False` and
+  `enable_ssml_parsing=False`. The truthy check treated `False` the same as
+  `None` (both skipped), and Python's `str(False)` produced `"False"` instead
+  of the lowercase `"false"` expected by the API.
+  (PR [#4293](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4293))
+
+- Fixed `on_assistant_turn_stopped` not resetting internal state when the LLM
+  returned no text tokens. Added `interrupted` field to
+  `AssistantTurnStoppedMessage` to indicate whether the assistant turn was
+  interrupted.
+  (PR [#4294](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4294))
+
+- Fixed `LLMContextSummarizer` failing with "No messages to summarize" when
+  using `system_instruction` instead of a system-role message at the start of
+  the context. The summarizer previously scanned the entire context for the
+  first system message, which could match a mid-conversation injection (e.g.
+  idle notifications) instead of the initial prompt, causing the summarization
+  range to be empty.
+  (PR [#4295](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/pull/4295))
+

-This directory contains the source files for auto-generating Pipecat's server API reference documentation.
-
-## Setup
-
-1. Install documentation dependencies:
-
-```bash
-pip install -r requirements.txt
-```
-
-2. Make the build scripts executable:
-
-```bash
-chmod +x build-docs.sh rtd-test.py
-```
+This directory contains the source files for auto-generating Pipecat's API reference documentation.
 
 ## Building Documentation
 
-From this directory, you can build the documentation in several ways:
-
-### Local Build
+From this directory:
 
 ```bash
-# Using the build script (automatically opens docs when done)
-./build-docs.sh
+# Build docs (warnings shown but don't fail the build)
+cd docs/api && uv run ./build-docs.sh
 
-# Or directly with sphinx-build
-sphinx-build -b html . _build/html -W --keep-going
+# Build with strict mode (warnings treated as errors)
+cd docs/api && uv run ./build-docs.sh --strict
 ```
 
-### ReadTheDocs Test Build
+The build script will:
 
-To test the documentation build process exactly as it would run on ReadTheDocs:
-
-```bash
-./rtd-test.py
-```
-
-This script:
-
-- Creates a fresh virtual environment
-- Installs all dependencies as specified in requirements files
-- Handles conflicting dependencies (like grpcio versions for Riva)
-- Builds the documentation in an isolated environment
-- Provides detailed logging of the build process
-
-Use this script to verify your documentation will build correctly on ReadTheDocs before pushing changes.
-
-## Viewing Documentation
-
-The built documentation will be available at `_build/html/index.html`. To open:
-
-```bash
-# On MacOS
-open _build/html/index.html
-
-# On Linux
-xdg-open _build/html/index.html
-
-# On Windows
-start _build/html/index.html
-```
+1. Install documentation dependencies via `uv sync --group docs`
+2. Clean previous build output
+3. Run `sphinx-build` to generate HTML documentation
+4. Open the result in your browser (macOS)

-## Notes
+## How It Works
 
-- Documentation is auto-generated from Python docstrings
-- Service modules are automatically detected and included
-- The build process matches our ReadTheDocs configuration
-- Warnings are treated as errors (-W flag) to maintain consistency
-- The --keep-going flag ensures all errors are reported
-- Dependencies are split into multiple requirements files to handle version conflicts
+- `conf.py` runs `sphinx-apidoc` during Sphinx's `setup()` phase to generate `.rst` files from Python source
+- Sphinx autodoc imports each module to extract docstrings
+- Modules with unavailable dependencies are listed in `autodoc_mock_imports` in `conf.py`
+- Napoleon extension converts Google-style docstrings to reStructuredText
 
 ## Troubleshooting
 
-If you encounter missing service modules:
+**Module not appearing in docs:**
 
-1. Verify the service is installed with its extras: `pip install pipecat-ai[service-name]`
-2. Check the build logs for import errors
-3. Ensure the service module is properly initialized in the package
-4. Run `./rtd-test.py` to test in an isolated environment matching ReadTheDocs
+1. Check the build output for `autodoc: failed to import` warnings
+2. If the module has an unresolvable import dependency, add it to `autodoc_mock_imports` in `conf.py`
+3. Verify the module is importable: `uv run python -c "import pipecat.module.name"`
 
-For dependency conflicts:
+**Duplicate object warnings:**
 
-1. Check the requirements files for version specifications
-2. Use `rtd-test.py` to verify dependency resolution
-3. Consider adding service-specific requirements files if needed
+These come from re-export modules or Sphinx discovering the same class through multiple import paths. Usually cosmetic.
 
-For more information:
+**Docstring formatting warnings:**
 
-- [ReadTheDocs Configuration](.readthedocs.yaml)
-- [Sphinx Documentation](https://www.sphinx-doc.org/)
+Docstrings use reStructuredText, not Markdown. Common issues:
+- Use `Example::` with indented code blocks, not `` ```python ``
+- Ensure blank lines between directive content and subsequent sections
+- Use `Parameters:` (not `Attributes:`) for dataclass field documentation to avoid duplicate entries

 # Pipecat Examples
 
-This directory contains examples to help you learn how to build with Pipecat.
+This directory contains examples showing how to build voice and multimodal agents with Pipecat.
 
-## Getting Started
+## Setup
 
-New to Pipecat? Start here:
+1. Follow the [README](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/blob/main/README.md#%EF%B8%8F-contributing-to-the-framework) steps to get your local environment configured.
 
-- **[Quickstart](quickstart/)** - Get your first voice AI bot running in 5 minutes _(coming soon)_
-- **[Client/Server Web](client-server-web/)** - Learn to build web applications with Pipecat's client SDKs _(coming soon)_
-- **[Phone Bot with Twilio](phone-bot-twilio/)** - Connect your bot to a phone number _(coming soon)_
+   > **Run from root directory**: Make sure you are running the steps from the root directory.
 
-## Foundational Examples
+   > **Using local audio?**: The `LocalAudioTransport` requires a system dependency for `portaudio`. Install the dependency to use the transport.
 
-Single-file examples that introduce core Pipecat concepts one at a time. These examples:
+2. Copy the [`env.example`](../env.example) file and add API keys for services you plan to use:
 
-- Build on each other progressively
-- Focus on specific features or integrations
-- Are used for testing with every Pipecat release
+   ```bash
+   cp env.example .env
+   # Edit .env with your API keys
+   ```
 
-See the **[Foundational Examples README](foundational/)** for the complete list.
+3. Run any example:

-- Production-ready applications
-- Multi-platform client implementations
-- Telephony integrations
-- Multimodal and creative applications
-- Deployment and monitoring examples
+## Running examples with other transports
+
+Most examples support running with other transports, like Twilio or Daily.
+
+### Daily
+
+You need to create a Daily account at https://dashboard.daily.co/u/signup. Once signed up, you can create your own room from the dashboard and set the environment variables `DAILY_ROOM_URL` and `DAILY_API_KEY`. Alternatively, you can let the example create a room for you (still needs `DAILY_API_KEY` environment variable). Then, start any example with `-t daily`:
+
+```bash
+uv run getting-started/06-voice-agent.py -t daily
+```
+
+### Twilio
+
+It is also possible to run the example through a Twilio phone number. You will need to setup a few things:
+
+1. Install and run [ngrok](https://ngrok.com/download).
+
+```bash
+ngrok http 7860
+```
+
+2. Configure your Twilio phone number. One way is to setup a TwiML app and set the request URL to the ngrok URL from step (1). Then, set your phone number to use the new TwiML app.
+
+Then, run the example with:
+
+```bash
+uv run getting-started/06-voice-agent.py -t twilio -x NGROK_HOST_NAME
+```

+"""TTSSpeakFrame timing and transcript ordering example.
+
+Demonstrates two common patterns for injecting hardcoded speech into a voice
+agent without breaking the LLM context / transcript ordering:
+
+    1. Intro / pre-roll. Say something before the agent speaks, and make sure
+       it shows up in the LLM context in the right place.
+    2. Tool-call filler. Say something while a function call is in flight,
+       without the filler audio overlapping the post-tool LLM response and
+       without the filler text landing on the wrong turn in the transcript.
+
+Key techniques shown:
+
+    - ``TTSSpeakFrame(text, append_to_context=True)`` — the TTS service commits
+      the spoken text to the assistant aggregator after the audio drains, so
+      turn ordering in the transcript matches the audio.
+    - ``pause_frame_processing=True`` on the TTS service — stops the TTS from
+      processing the next LLM response while the filler is still speaking,
+      which is what keeps the audio and the transcript aligned during tool
+      calls.
+    - A system-prompt nudge asking the LLM not to acknowledge before a tool
+      call, so you don't get double acknowledgements (one from the LLM, one
+      from ``on_function_calls_started``).
+
+Notes:
+
+    - Do NOT call ``asyncio.sleep`` to add pauses around TTS. Use
+      ``FrameProcessorPauseFrame`` / ``FrameProcessorResumeUrgentFrame`` if you
+      need a synthetic gap. ``asyncio.sleep`` does not interact with the
+      frame-processing system and will desync audio and transcript.
+    - The base ``TTSService`` defaults ``pause_frame_processing`` to ``False``.
+      Many wrappers (ElevenLabs, Rime, Deepgram, Groq, Azure, ...) hardcode it
+      to ``True`` in their ``super().__init__()`` calls, so you don't need to
+      opt in. ``OpenAITTSService`` inherits the base default (``False``), so we
+      pass it explicitly below.
+    - ``CartesiaTTSService`` is the odd one: it hardcodes
+      ``pause_frame_processing=False`` AND does not accept the kwarg via the
+      constructor (you'll get ``TypeError: got multiple values for keyword
+      argument 'pause_frame_processing'``). If you're on Cartesia, set it after
+      construction: ``tts._pause_frame_processing = True``.

-# Pipecat Foundational Examples
-
-This directory contains examples showing how to build voice and multimodal agents with Pipecat. Each example demonstrates specific features, progressing from basic to advanced concepts.
-
-## Setup
-
-1. Follow the [README](https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat/blob/main/README.md#%EF%B8%8F-contributing-to-the-framework) steps to get your local environment configured.
-
-   > **Run from root directory**: Make sure you are running the steps from the root directory.
-
-   > **Using local audio?**: The `LocalAudioTransport` requires a system dependency for `portaudio`. Install the dependency to use the transport.
-
-2. Copy the [`env.example`](../../env.example) file and add API keys for services you plan to use:
-
-   ```bash
-   cp env.example .env
-   # Edit .env with your API keys
-   ```
-
-3. Navigate to the examples directory if you aren't already there:
-
-   ```bash
-   cd examples/foundational
-   ```
-
-4. Run any example:
-
-   ```bash
-   uv run python 01-say-one-thing.py
-   ```
-
-5. Open the web interface at http://localhost:7860/client/ and click "Connect"
-
-## Running examples with other transports
-
-Most examples support running with other transports, like Twilio or Daily.
-
-### Daily
-
-You need to create a Daily account at https://dashboard.daily.co/u/signup. Once signed up, you can create your own room from the dashboard and set the environment variables `DAILY_ROOM_URL` and `DAILY_API_KEY`. Alternatively, you can let the example create a room for you (still needs `DAILY_API_KEY` environment variable). Then, start any example with `-t daily`:
-
-```bash
-uv run 07-interruptible.py -t daily
-```
-
-### Twilio
-
-It is also possible to run the example through a Twilio phone number. You will need to setup a few things:
-
-1. Install and run [ngrok](https://ngrok.com/download).
-
-```bash
-ngrok http 7860
-```
-
-2. Configure your Twilio phone number. One way is to setup a TwiML app and set the request URL to the ngrok URL from step (1). Then, set your phone number to use the new TwiML app.
-
-Then, run the example with:
-
-```bash
-uv run 07-interruptible.py -t twilio -x NGROK_HOST_NAME
-```

+"""Example: async function call with intermediate updates.
+
+The ``track_current_location`` tool simulates a GPS tracker reporting the
+device's position during a road trip from San Francisco to San Diego.  It
+sends two intermediate updates (via ``params.result_callback`` with
+``is_final=False``) as the vehicle passes through cities along the way, then
+delivers the final destination (via ``params.result_callback``).  Each update
+returns the same structure with a different city:
+
+  Update 1 – {gps, city: "San Francisco"}   ← trip start
+  Update 2 – {gps, city: "Los Angeles"}     ← passing through
+  Final     – {gps, city: "San Diego"}      ← destination reached
+
+Because the function is registered with ``cancel_on_interruption=False``, the
+LLM can keep talking while the trip is in progress; each position update
+arrives as a developer message so the LLM can narrate the journey to the user.

+"""Example: async function call with intermediate updates.
+
+The ``track_current_location`` tool simulates a GPS tracker reporting the
+device's position during a road trip from San Francisco to San Diego.  It
+sends two intermediate updates (via ``params.result_callback`` with
+``is_final=False``) as the vehicle passes through cities along the way, then
+delivers the final destination (via ``params.result_callback``).  Each update returns the same structure with a
+different city:
+
+  Update 1 – {gps, city: "San Francisco"}   ← trip start
+  Update 2 – {gps, city: "Los Angeles"}     ← passing through
+  Final     – {gps, city: "San Diego"}      ← destination reached
+
+Because the function is registered with ``cancel_on_interruption=False``, the
+LLM can keep talking while the trip is in progress; each position update
+arrives as a developer message so the LLM can narrate the journey to the user.
