Let me look at the CLI module and see if there’s a different way to integrate this: is this the correct implementation # Get turn detection model from prewarm or try to load it prewarmed_turn_detection = getattr(ctx, “proc”, None) and ctx.proc.userdata.get(“turn_detection”) if prewarmed_turn_detection is not None: turn_detection = prewarmed_turn_detection _else_: _try_: turn_detection = EnglishModel() logger.info(“✅ Turn detector model loaded at runtime”) except Exception as e: logger.error(“❌ Failed to load turn detector model: %s”, e) logger.info(“⚠️ Continuing without turn detection (will use VAD only)“) turn_detection = None instead of this turn_detection = (getattr(ctx, “proc”, None) and ctx.proc.userdata.get(“turn_detection”)) or EnglishModel()

Thanks for reaching out, Sumiya. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
It looks like the error you're seeing happens because the
run_app()
function in your script is being called with an unexpected keyword argument,
download_files_fnc
. This usually means there's a mismatch between how the CLI command is set up and what
run_app()
expects. To help you get the
download-files
command working smoothly in the LiveKit CLI, here are some friendly steps to follow: 1. First, make sure all your plugins are properly registered so their
downloadFiles()
method gets called. For instance, you can register each plugin like this:
Plugin.registerPlugin(new EOUPlugin())
. 2. Next, define the
download-files
command in your CLI. If you're using Python, here's a simple way to do it:
Copy code
@cli.command(help="Download plugin dependency files")
@click.option("--log-level", default="DEBUG", ...)
def download_files(log_level: str) -> None:
    setup_logging(log_level, True, False)
    for plugin in Plugin.registered_plugins:
        <http://logger.info|logger.info>(f"Downloading files for {plugin}")
        plugin.download_files()
If you're working with Node.js, you can set it up like this:
Copy code
program
  .command('download-files')
  .description('Download plugin dependency files')
  .action(() => {
    const options = program.optsWithGlobals();
    initializeLogger({ pretty: true, level: options.logLevel });
    const logger = log();
    const downloadFiles = async () => {
      for (const plugin of Plugin.registeredPlugins) {
        await plugin.downloadFiles();
      }
    };
    downloadFiles().finally(() => process.exit(0));
  });
1. Finally, remember to run the
download-files
command during your Docker image build phase to pre-download all dependencies. For example:
Copy code
RUN python my_agent.py download-files
This step helps cache all the needed assets locally inside the container, which can really speed up startup time and make things more reliable.

what does this do? lk agent update-secrets CA_YNVhVUT7nKHg --secrets-file secrets.env --overwrite
t
I'd love to help you understand the command
lk agent update-secrets CA_YNVhVUT7nKHg --secrets-file secrets.env --overwrite
. This command updates the secrets (environment variables) for your LiveKit agent with the ID
CA_YNVhVUT7nKHg
. Here's a little breakdown to make it clearer: • `--secrets-file secrets.env`: This tells the command to use a file named
secrets.env
that contains your secrets as key-value pairs in the format
KEY=VALUE
, one on each line. • `--overwrite`: This flag means that all existing secrets for the agent will be deleted and replaced by the ones in your file. If you didn’t use this, the new secrets would simply be added or updated without removing the old ones. Once you run this command, the agent will restart automatically to apply these updated secrets. Rest assured, LiveKit Cloud securely encrypts and stores your secrets, and they are safely injected into the agent containers as environment variables when they run. If anything feels unclear or if you need a hand with this process, please don’t hesitate to reach out—I’m here to help!
