give me code for openai realtime model agent session
t
Thanks for reaching out, Madhav. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
You're asking for code to create an OpenAI realtime model agent session. Below are concise working examples in Python and Node.js plus minimal setup steps. Python
Copy code
from livekit.agents import AgentSession
from livekit.plugins import openai

session = AgentSession(
    llm=openai.realtime.RealtimeModel(
        voice="marin",
        temperature=0.8,
        modalities=["text", "audio"]
    ),
)
Node.js / TypeScript
Copy code
import * as openai from '@livekit/agents-plugin-openai';
import { AgentSession } from '@livekit/agents';

const session = new AgentSession({
  llm: new openai.realtime.RealtimeModel({
    voice: "marin",
    temperature: 0.8,
    modalities: ["text", "audio"],
  }),
});
Setup • Install the plugin: ◦ Python: uv add "livekit-agents[openai]~=1.2" ◦ Node: pnpm add "@livekit/agents-plugin-openai@1.x" • Set your OpenAI API key in `.env`: OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here Would you like a fuller example showing how to send prompts and receive text/audio responses, or integration into a LiveKit room?

Python (with imports)
Copy code
# Install: uv add "livekit-agents[openai]~=1.2"
# .env: OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

from livekit.agents import AgentSession
from livekit.plugins import openai

session = AgentSession(
    llm=openai.realtime.RealtimeModel(
        voice="marin",
        temperature=0.8,
        modalities=["text", "audio"],
    ),
)

# Example: send a prompt (depends on AgentSession API)
# response = session.run("Hello, please introduce yourself.")
# print(response)
Node.js / TypeScript (with imports)
Copy code
// Install: pnpm add "@livekit/agents-plugin-openai@1.x"
// .env: OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

import * as openai from '@livekit/agents-plugin-openai';
import { AgentSession } from '@livekit/agents';

const session = new AgentSession({
  llm: new openai.realtime.RealtimeModel({
    voice: "marin",
    temperature: 0.8,
    modalities: ["text", "audio"],
  }),
});

// Example: send a prompt (depends on AgentSession API)
// const response = await session.run("Hello, please introduce yourself.");
// console.log(response);
Would you like a full runnable example showing how to send prompts and handle text/audio outputs in your chosen language?

ensure code is production grade setting of realtime model config

Below are production-ready examples (Python and TypeScript) for creating an OpenAI RealtimeModel agent session with robust configuration, logging, error handling, and suggestions for sensible defaults. They assume you installed the OpenAI plugin and set OPENAI_API_KEY in environment variables. Python (production-ready)
Copy code
# Install: uv add "livekit-agents[openai]~=1.2"
# .env: OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

    format="%(asctime)s %(levelname)s %(name)s: %(message)s",
    stream=sys.stdout,
)
logger = logging.getLogger("realtime_agent")

# Load configuration from env with safe defaults
OPENAI_API_KEY = os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")

    modalities: Optional[list] = None,
    max_tokens: int = 1024,
    timeout_seconds: int = 30,
):
    modalities = modalities or ["text", "audio"]
    # Hardened parameter validation
    if not 0.0 <= temperature <= 1.0:
        raise ValueError("temperature must be between 0.0 and 1.0")
    if max_tokens <= 0 or max_tokens > 4096:
        raise ValueError("max_tokens must be >0 and <=4096")

      logger.error({ err }, "Error running agent session");
    }
  })();
}
Notes and production considerations • Validate and limit model parameters (temperature, max_tokens) to prevent unexpected behavior. • Set sensible timeouts and catch exceptions on network calls. • Log structured messages and avoid logging secrets. • Inject API keys explicitly where supported; prefer environment-based secret storage for production. • Integrate with your app’s lifecycle (graceful shutdown, retries, backoff). • If you want, I can provide a full runnable example that includes LiveKit room wiring, audio capture/playback hooks, or retry/backoff wrappers. Which of those would you like next?
