Is there a way to read the agent name within the agent process?

Thanks for reaching out, Ben. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.


Yes, you can read the agent name within the agent process in LiveKit by using the `agentName` property of a `JobRequest` instance. Here's an example:
```// Example of accessing agent name from a JobRequest
const agentName = jobRequest.agentName;
```
This will return a string value representing the agent's name, as set in `WorkerOptions` during the worker setup.
