how can I exit the session based on use request?

Thanks for reaching out, Aditya. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
To exit or leave a session in LiveKit based on a user's request, you can implement the following approaches: 1. Function Tool: Create a function tool that triggers when the user wants to leave. This tool can generate a goodbye message and close the session using 
session.aclose()
. 2. Handling the 
close
Event: Listen for the session's 
close
event to perform cleanup actions and optionally delete the room. 3. Using the 
on_exit
Hook: Implement an 
on_exit
method in your agent to perform actions like a friendly goodbye before the session closes. These mechanisms allow you to programmatically manage session termination based on user intent within LiveKit. If you need example code or further details on any of these methods, please let me know.

Hey there! Let me walk you through a really neat way to handle saying goodbye in a conversation. Imagine you want to wrap up a chat smoothly - this code helps you do just that!
Copy code
class MyAgent(Agent):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(instructions="You are a helpful assistant.")
        self._closing_task: asyncio.Task[None] | None = None

    @llm.function_tool
    async def close_session(self):
        """Called when the user wants to leave the conversation"""
        await self.session.generate_reply(instructions="say goodbye to the user")
        self._closing_task = asyncio.create_task(self.session.aclose())
Basically, this little piece of code creates a friendly way to end the conversation. When someone wants to say goodbye, it'll generate a warm farewell and then gently close the session. Pretty cool, right? By the way, if you're curious about other ways to handle goodbyes, I'd be happy to show you some alternative approaches like using the 
close
event or the 
on_exit
hook. Just let me know!
