is set to True
in your agent configuration. This setting helps the agent pause when the user interrupts.
• Adjust Interruption Sensitivity: It might help to fine-tune parameters like interrupt_speech_duration
and interrupt_min_words
so the agent can better detect interruptions promptly.
• Configure Voice Activity Detection (VAD): Make sure your VAD is properly set up to effectively pick up when the user speaks.
• Handle Interruptions in Code: Using the SpeechHandle
object to monitor interruptions and cancel ongoing tasks can make the agent more responsive.
• Update Context After Interruption: It's important that the agent updates its conversation history to reflect only what the user actually heard, so the context stays accurate.
• Process User Input Post-Interruption: Don’t forget to use the user_input_transcribed
event to capture and respond to what the user says after interrupting.
Following these steps should help your agent stop speaking promptly when interrupted and respond appropriately to user input. If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out—I'm here to support you!
