When a user's state changes to "away" in LiveKit, the system does not automatically stop the agent. Instead, it emits a

UserStateChangedEvent

, which developers can handle based on their application's requirements. Here are the key details: • The "away" state is triggered when the user has been inactive for a certain period (default is 15 seconds, but this can be customized). • The event is primarily a notification mechanism, and the agent continues running unless explicitly programmed to take specific actions. For example, you can handle the

user_state_changed

event to: 1. Attempt to re-engage the user with polite prompts. 2. Wait for a response within a defined timeframe. 3. Take further actions, such as closing the session or deleting the room, if no response is received. This behavior is entirely developer-controlled, and you can customize it to suit your application's needs.
