@millions-hair-24956 I've made an inbound route in the python sdk and when it answers the dispatch, there are two agents present in the room

To address the issue of having two agents present in the room when an inbound route is answered, you should ensure that your dispatch rules and agent setup are correctly configured. Here are some steps to consider: 1. Check Dispatch Rule: Ensure that your dispatch rule is not set to direct multiple agents to the same room. According to LiveKit Docs, using explicit dispatch with the
agent_name
set can help control which agent is dispatched to a room. 2. Agent Configuration: Verify that your agent is not being instantiated multiple times. If you are using the
WorkerOptions
with
agent_name
, ensure that it is correctly set to prevent automatic dispatch to multiple rooms. As per LiveKit Docs, setting
agent_name
prevents automatic dispatch. 3. Request Handler: Implement a request handler to manage job requests. You can reject additional job requests if an agent is already present in the room. This can be done by checking the current room participants and rejecting new requests if an agent is already connected. If you need more detailed guidance, please let me know.

@millions-hair-24956 more guidance on this point please: 3. Request Handler: Implement a request handler to manage job requests.

To implement a request handler that manages job requests and ensures only one agent is present in a room, you can follow these steps: 1. Define the Request Handler: Create a function that will handle incoming job requests. This function will check the current participants in the room and decide whether to accept or reject the job request. 2. Check Room Participants: Use the
JobRequest
object to access the room and its participants. You can use the
ListParticipants
API to get the current participants in the room. 3. Accept or Reject the Request: If an agent is already present in the room, reject the new job request. Otherwise, accept it and allow the agent to join the room. Here is a code snippet to illustrate this:
Copy code
async def request_fnc(req: JobRequest):
    # List current participants in the room
    participants = await list_participants(req.room.name)
    
    # Check if an agent is already present
    agent_present = any(participant.identity.startswith("agent-") for participant in participants)
    
    if agent_present:
        # Reject the job request if an agent is already in the room
        await req.reject()
    else:
        # Accept the job request if no agent is present
        await req.accept(
            name="agent_name",
            identity="agent_identity"
        )

async def list_participants(room_name):
    # Implement the logic to list participants using LiveKit's RoomService API
    # This is a placeholder function
    return []
This approach ensures that only one agent is active in a room at any given time. If you need further details, feel free to ask.
