Thanks — I’m answering your question about

session.generate_reply()

having conversation history and calling it during a tool call. • Yes.

session.generate_reply()

uses the agent’s

chat_ctx

by default, which contains the conversation history up to that point, so generated replies will see prior messages. • Yes. You can call

session.generate_reply()

from inside a tool call to produce updates (for example, interim speech during a long-running task). • Important notes: ◦ Don’t directly

await

the

SpeechHandle

returned by

generate_reply()

inside the tool. Use

context.wait_for_playout()

to wait for speech to finish. ◦ If you need to control which messages are visible to

generate_reply()

, copy and modify the agent’s

chat_ctx

and pass it as

chat_ctx

(Python) when calling

generate_reply()

. If you want, tell me which language/SDK and show a short snippet of your tool so I can give a tailored example. Sources: Agent speech and audio | LiveKit Documentation | Function tool definition | LiveKit Documentation, with interactive elements
