CHANGELOG.md

@@ -5,6 +5,220 @@ All notable changes to **Pipecat** will be documented in this file.
 The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
 and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
 
+## [Unreleased]
+
+### Added
+
+- Added `RTVIObserverParams` which allows you to configure what RTVI messages
+  are sent to the clients.
+
+- Added a `context_window_compression` InputParam to
+  `GeminiMultimodalLiveLLMService` which allows you to enable a sliding context
+  window for the session as well as set the token limit of the sliding window.
+
+- Updated `SmallWebRTCConnection` to support `ice_servers` with credentials.
+
+- Added `VADUserStartedSpeakingFrame` and `VADUserStoppedSpeakingFrame`,
+  indicating when the VAD detected the user to start and stop speaking. These
+  events are helpful when using smart turn detection, as the user's stop time
+  can differ from when their turn ends (signified by UserStoppedSpeakingFrame).
+
+- Added `TranslationFrame`, a new frame type that contains a translated
+  transcription.
+
+- Added `TransportParams.audio_in_passthrough`. If set (the default), incoming
+  audio will be pushed downstream.
+
+- Added `MCPClient`; a way to connect to MCP servers and use the MCP servers'
+  tools.
+
+- Added `Mem0 OSS`, along with Mem0 cloud support now the OSS version is also
+  available.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The `STTMuteFilter` now mutes `InterimTranscriptionFrame` and
+  `TranscriptionFrame` which allows the `STTMuteFilter` to be used in
+  conjunction with transports that generate transcripts, e.g. `DailyTransport`.
+
+- Function calls now receive a single parameter `FunctionCallParams` instead of
+  `(function_name, tool_call_id, args, llm, context, result_callback)` which is
+  now deprecated.
+
+- Changed the user aggregator timeout for late transcriptions from 1.0s to 0.5s
+  (`LLMUserAggregatorParams.aggregation_timeout`). Sometimes, the STT services
+  might give us more than one transcription which could come after the user
+  stopped speaking. We still want to include these additional transcriptions
+  with the first one because it's part of the user turn. This is what this
+  timeout is helpful with.
+
+- Short utterances not detected by VAD while the bot is speaking are now
+  ignored. This reduces the amount of bot interruptions significantly providing
+  a more natural conversation experience.
+
+- Updated `GladiaSTTService` to output a `TranslationFrame` when specifying a
+  `translation` and `translation_config`.
+
+- STT services now passthrough audio frames by default. This allows you to add
+  audio recording without worrying about what's wrong in your pipeline when it
+  doesn't work the first time.
+
+- Input transports now always push audio downstream unless disabled with
+  `TransportParams.audio_in_passthrough`. After many Pipecat releases, we
+  realized this is the common use case. There are use cases where the input
+  transport already provides STT and you also don't want recordings, in which
+  case there's no need to push audio to the rest of the pipeline, but this is
+  not a very common case.
+
+### Deprecated
+
+- Function calls with parameters
+  `(function_name, tool_call_id, args, llm, context, result_callback)` are
+  deprectated, use a single `FunctionCallParams` parameter instead.
+
+- `TransportParams.camera_*` parameters are now deprecated, use
+  `TransportParams.video_*` instead.
+
+- `TransportParams.vad_enabled` parameter is now deprecated, use
+  `TransportParams.audio_in_enabled` and `TransportParams.vad_analyzer` instead.
+
+- `TransportParams.vad_audio_passthrough` parameter is now deprecated, use
+  `TransportParams.audio_in_passthrough` instead.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed an issue with `GeminiMultimodalLiveLLMService` where the context
+  contained tokens instead of words.
+
+- Fixed an issue with HTTP Smart Turn handling, where the service returns a 500
+  error. Previously, this would cause an unhandled exception. Now, a 500 error
+  is treated as an incomplete response.
+
+- Fixed a TTS services issue that could cause assistant output not to be
+  aggregated to the context when also using `TTSSpeakFrame`s.
+
+- Fixed an issue where the `SmartTurnMetricsData` was reporting 0ms for
+  inference and processing time when using the `FalSmartTurnAnalyzer`.
+
+### Other
+
+- Added 04 foundational examples for client/server transports. Also, renamed
+  `29-livekit-audio-chat.py` to `04b-transports-livekit.py`.
+
+- Added foundational example `13c-gladia-translation.py` showing how to use
+  `TranscriptionFrame` and `TranslationFrame`.
+
+## [0.0.65] - 2025-04-23 "Sant Jordi's release" 🌹📕
+
+https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_George%27s_Day_in_Catalonia
+
+### Added
+
+- Added automatic hangup logic to the Telnyx serializer. This feature hangs up
+  the Telnyx call when an `EndFrame` or `CancelFrame` is received. It is
+  enabled by default and is configurable via the `auto_hang_up` `InputParam`.
+
+- Added a keepalive task to `GladiaSTTService` to prevent the websocket from
+  disconnecting after 30 seconds of no audio input.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The `InputParams` for `ElevenLabsTTSService` and `ElevenLabsHttpTTSService`
+  no longer require that `stability` and `similarity_boost` be set. You can
+  individually set each param.
+
+- In `TwilioFrameSerializer`, `call_sid` is Optional so as to avoid a breaking
+  changed. `call_sid` is required to automatically hang up.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed an issue where `TwilioFrameSerializer` would send two hang up commands:
+  one for the `EndFrame` and one for the `CancelFrame`.
+
+## [0.0.64] - 2025-04-22
+
+### Added
+
+- Added automatic hangup logic to the Twilio serializer. This feature hangs up
+  the Twilio call when an `EndFrame` or `CancelFrame` is received. It is
+  enabled by default and is configurable via the `auto_hang_up` `InputParam`.
+
+- Added `SmartTurnMetricsData`, which contains end-of-turn prediction metrics,
+  to the `MetricsFrame`. Using `MetricsFrame`, you can now retrieve prediction
+  confidence scores and processing time metrics from the smart turn analyzers.
+
+- Added support for Application Default Credentials in Google services,
+  `GoogleSTTService`, `GoogleTTSService`, and `GoogleVertexLLMService`.
+
+- Added support for Smart Turn Detection via the `turn_analyzer` transport
+  parameter. You can now choose between `HttpSmartTurnAnalyzer()` or
+  `FalSmartTurnAnalyzer()` for remote inference or
+  `LocalCoreMLSmartTurnAnalyzer()` for on-device inference using Core ML.
+
+- `DeepgramTTSService` accepts `base_url` argument again, allowing you to
+  connect to an on-prem service.
+
+- Added `LLMUserAggregatorParams` and `LLMAssistantAggregatorParams` which allow
+  you to control aggregator settings. You can now pass these arguments when
+  creating aggregator pairs with `create_context_aggregator()`.
+
+- Added `previous_text` context support to ElevenLabsHttpTTSService, improving
+  speech consistency across sentences within an LLM response.
+
+- Added word/timestamp pairs to `ElevenLabsHttpTTSService`.
+
+- It is now possible to disable `SoundfileMixer` when created. You can then use
+  `MixerEnableFrame` to dynamically enable it when necessary.
+
+- Added `on_client_connected` and `on_client_disconnected` event handlers to
+  the `DailyTransport` class. These handlers map to the same underlying Daily
+  events as `on_participant_joined` and `on_participant_left`, respectively.
+  This makes it easier to write a single bot pipeline that can also use other
+  transports like `SmallWebRTCTransport` and `FastAPIWebsocketTransport`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- `GrokLLMService` now uses `grok-3-beta` as its default model.
+
+- Daily's REST helpers now include an `eject_at_token_exp` param, which ejects
+  the user when their token expires. This new parameter defaults to False.
+  Also, the default value for `enable_prejoin_ui` changed to False and
+  `eject_at_room_exp` changed to False.
+
+- `OpenAILLMService` and `OpenPipeLLMService` now use `gpt-4.1` as their
+  default model.
+
+- `SoundfileMixer` constructor arguments need to be keywords.
+
+### Deprecated
+
+- `DeepgramSTTService` parameter `url` is now deprecated, use `base_url`
+  instead.
+
+### Removed
+
+- Parameters `user_kwargs` and `assistant_kwargs` when creating a context
+  aggregator pair using `create_context_aggregator()` have been removed. Use
+  `user_params` and `assistant_params` instead.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed an issue that would cause TTS websocket-based services to not cleanup
+  resources properly when disconnecting.
+
+- Fixed a `TavusVideoService` issue that was causing audio choppiness.
+
+- Fixed an issue in `SmallWebRTCTransport` where an error was thrown if the
+  client did not create a video transceiver.
+
+- Fixed an issue where LLM input parameters were not working and applied
+  correctly in `GoogleVertexLLMService`, causing unexpected behavior during
+  inference.
+
+### Other
+
+- Updated the `twilio-chatbot` example to use the auto-hangup feature.

-## A simple voice agent running locally
+## 🛠️ Hacking on the framework itself
 
-Here is a very basic Pipecat bot that greets a user when they join a real-time session. We'll use [Daily](https://daily.co) for real-time media transport, and [Cartesia](https://cartesia.ai/) for text-to-speech.
+1. Set up a virtual environment before following these instructions. From the root of the repo:
 
-```python
-import asyncio
+   ```shell
+   python3 -m venv venv
+   source venv/bin/activate
+   ```
 
-from pipecat.frames.frames import TextFrame
-from pipecat.pipeline.pipeline import Pipeline
-from pipecat.pipeline.task import PipelineTask
-from pipecat.pipeline.runner import PipelineRunner
-from pipecat.services.cartesia import CartesiaTTSService
-from pipecat.transports.services.daily import DailyParams, DailyTransport
+2. Install the development dependencies:
 
-async def main():
-  # Use Daily as a real-time media transport (WebRTC)
-  transport = DailyTransport(
-    room_url=...,
-    token="", # leave empty. Note: token is _not_ your api key
-    bot_name="Bot Name",
-    params=DailyParams(audio_out_enabled=True))
+   ```shell
+   pip install -r dev-requirements.txt
+   ```
 
-  # Use Cartesia for Text-to-Speech
-  tts = CartesiaTTSService(
-    api_key=...,
-    voice_id=...
-  )
+3. Install the git pre-commit hooks (these help ensure your code follows project rules):
 
-  # Simple pipeline that will process text to speech and output the result
-  pipeline = Pipeline([tts, transport.output()])
+   ```shell
+   pre-commit install
+   ```
 
-  # Create Pipecat processor that can run one or more pipelines tasks
-  runner = PipelineRunner()
+4. Install the `pipecat-ai` package locally in editable mode:
 
-  # Assign the task callable to run the pipeline
-  task = PipelineTask(pipeline)
+   ```shell
+   pip install -e .
+   ```
 
-  # Register an event handler to play audio when a
-  # participant joins the transport WebRTC session
-  @transport.event_handler("on_first_participant_joined")
-  async def on_first_participant_joined(transport, participant):
-    participant_name = participant.get("info", {}).get("userName", "")
-    # Queue a TextFrame that will get spoken by the TTS service (Cartesia)
-    await task.queue_frame(TextFrame(f"Hello there, {participant_name}!"))
+   > The `-e` or `--editable` option allows you to modify the code without reinstalling.
 
-  # Register an event handler to exit the application when the user leaves.
-  @transport.event_handler("on_participant_left")
-  async def on_participant_left(transport, participant, reason):
-    await task.cancel()
+5. Include optional dependencies as needed. For example:
 
-  # Run the pipeline task
-  await runner.run(task)
+   ```shell
+   pip install -e ".[daily,deepgram,cartesia,openai,silero]"
+   ```
 
-if __name__ == "__main__":
-  asyncio.run(main())
-```
+6. (Optional) If you want to use this package from another directory:
 
-Run it with:
-
-```shell
-python app.py
-```
-
-Daily provides a prebuilt WebRTC user interface. While the app is running, you can visit at `https://<yourdomain>.daily.co/<room_url>` and listen to the bot say hello!
-
-## WebRTC for production use
-
-WebSockets are fine for server-to-server communication or for initial development. But for production use, you’ll need client-server audio to use a protocol designed for real-time media transport. (For an explanation of the difference between WebSockets and WebRTC, see [this post.](https://www.daily.co/blog/how-to-talk-to-an-llm-with-your-voice/#webrtc))

-One way to get up and running quickly with WebRTC is to sign up for a Daily developer account. Daily gives you SDKs and global infrastructure for audio (and video) routing. Every account gets 10,000 audio/video/transcription minutes free each month.
-
-Sign up [here](https://dashboard.daily.co/u/signup) and [create a room](https://docs.daily.co/reference/rest-api/rooms) in the developer Dashboard.

-## Hacking on the framework itself
-
-_Note: You may need to set up a virtual environment before following these instructions. From the root of the repo:_
-
-```shell
-python3 -m venv venv
-source venv/bin/activate
-```
-
-Install the development dependencies:
-
-```shell
-pip install -r dev-requirements.txt
-```
-
-Install the git pre-commit hooks (these help ensure your code follows project rules):
-
-```shell
-pre-commit install
-```
-
-Install the `pipecat-ai` package locally in editable mode:
-
-```shell
-pip install -e .
-```
-
-The `-e` or `--editable` option allows you to modify the code without reinstalling.
-
-To include optional dependencies, add them to the install command. For example:
-
-```shell
-pip install -e ".[daily,deepgram,cartesia,openai,silero]"     # Updated for the services you're using
-```
-
-If you want to use this package from another directory:
-
-```shell
-pip install "path_to_this_repo[option,...]"
-```
+   ```shell
+   pip install "path_to_this_repo[option,...]"
+   ```
 
 ### Running tests
 
+Install the test dependencies:
+
+```shell
+pip install -r test-requirements.txt
+```
+
 From the root directory, run:
 
 ```shell
 pytest
 ```

+# Smart Turn Detection Demo
+
+This demo showcases Pipecat's Smart Turn Detection feature - an advanced conversational turn detection system that uses machine learning to identify when a speaker has finished their turn in a conversation. Unlike basic Voice Activity Detection (VAD) which only detects speech vs. silence, Smart Turn detects natural conversational cues like intonation patterns, pacing, and linguistic signals.
+
+This demo uses the [pipecat-ai/smart-turn](https://huggingface.co/pipecat-ai/smart-turn) model - an open-source, community-driven conversational turn detection model designed to provide more natural turn-taking in voice interactions. The model is being hosted on Fal's infrastructure for GPU acceleration, offering inference times between 50-60ms.
+
+In the client UI, you can see the transcription messages along with the smart-turn model's prediction results in real-time.
+
+## Try the demo
+
+Try the hosted version of the demo here: https://pcc-smart-turn.vercel.app/.
+
+## Run the demo locally
+
+### Run the Server
+
+1. Set up and activate your virtual environment:
+
+   ```bash
+   python3 -m venv venv
+   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
+   ```
+
+2. Install dependencies:
+
+   ```bash
+   pip install -r requirements.txt
+   ```
+
+3. Create your .env file and set your env vars:
+
+   ```bash
+   cp env.example .env
+   ```
+
+   Keys to provide:
+
+   - GOOGLE_API_KEY
+   - CARTESIA_API_KEY
+   - DEEPGRAM_API_KEY
+   - DAILY_API_KEY
+   - FAL_SMART_TURN_API_KEY
+
+4. Run the server:
+
+   ```bash
+   LOCAL=1 python server.py
+   ```
+
+### Run the client
+
+1. Open a new terminal and navigate to the client directory:
+
+   ```bash
+   cd client
+   ```
+
+2. Install dependencies:
+
+   ```bash
+   npm install
+   ```
+
+3. Create your .env.local file:
+
+   ```bash
+   cp env.local.example .env.local
+   ```
+
+   > Note: No keys need to be modified. `NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL` is already configured for local use.
+
+4. Start the development server:
+
+   ```bash
+   npm run dev
+   ```
+
+5. Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) in your browser.
+
+## Deploy the app
+
+### Deploy the server to Pipecat Cloud
+
+1. Navigate to server
+
+   ```bash
+   cd server
+   ```
+
+2. You should already have a .env set up from running locally. If not, do that now.
+
+3. Update your build and deploy scripts.
+
+   - In build.sh, set `DOCKER_USERNAME` and `AGENT_NAME`.
+   - In pcc-deploy.toml, set `image`, which specifies where your Docker image is stored.
+
+4. Build your Docker image by running the build script:
+
+   ```bash
+   ./build.sh
+   ```
+
+   > Note: This builds, tags and pushes your docker image and assumes Docker Hub is the container registry.
+
+5. Make sure you have the Pipecat Cloud CLI installed:
+
+   ```bash
+   pip install pipecatcloud
+   ```
+
+6. Login via the Pipecat Cloud CLI:
+
+   ```bash
+   pcc auth login
+   ```
+
+   > Note: If you don't have an account, sign up at https://pipecat.daily.co.
+
+7. Add a secrets set:
+
+   ```bash
+   pcc secrets set pcc-smart-turn-secrets --file .env
+   ```
+
+8. Deploy your agent:
+
+   ```bash
+   pcc deploy
+   ```
+
+   > Note: This uses your pcc-deploy.toml settings. Modify as needed.
+
+### Deploy the client to Vercel
+
+This project uses TypeScript, React, and Next.js, making it a perfect fit for [Vercel](https://vercel.com/).
+
+- In your client directory, install Vercel's CLI tool: `npm install -g vercel`
+- Verify it's installed using `vercel --version`
+- Log in your Vercel account using `vercel login`
+- Deploy your client to Vercel using `vercel`
+
+Follow the vercel prompts to deploy your project.
+
