To help you create a warm and welcoming greeting message in LiveKit, you can preload models and resources during agent initialization. This way, your first interaction will feel smooth and natural. Here are some friendly tips to get you started: • Preload Models: Try using the

prewarm()

function to load important models like VAD (Voice Activity Detection) right when the worker process starts. This helps reduce any delay for that very first response. • Immediate Voice Greeting: Once your agent is up and running, you can use

agent.say()

to warmly say something like, "Hello, how are you doing today?" • Automated Greeting: You might want to override the

on_enter()

lifecycle hook in a custom agent class so your agent automatically greets users as soon as it becomes active. • Text-Based Greeting: Another nice touch is using

stream_text()

to send a friendly text greeting to the room or specific participants. If you'd like, I’m here to help you implement any of these methods or assist with integrating a particular TTS provider.
