04/10/2026, 4:53 PMThanks — regarding whether there's a generic way to query maximum or remaining session time for inference LLMs:
I don’t have a universal API that works across all LLM providers. Different inference services expose session/timeout info differently (some provide explicit session TTLs, some return remaining quota in account endpoints, others do not expose it at all).
Could you tell me:
• Which LLM providers or inference APIs you're integrating (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Hugging Face, a self-hosted model)?
• Are you using a specific agent framework or SDK (and which one)?
With that I can tell you which providers expose session/remaining-time endpoints and suggest per-provider approaches or a common wrapper pattern you can implement.

04/10/2026, 4:56 PMI've got a Python agent derived from the LiveKit Agent class and my agent can be configured to use OpenAI realtime, Gemini, or GPT 5.4 mini. What are the session time limits for each of those?

04/10/2026, 4:57 PMThanks — regarding the session time limits for OpenAI Realtime, Gemini, and GPT‑5.4 mini when used with your LiveKit-derived Python agent:
I checked LiveKit docs and there are no model-specific maximum or remaining session time values published for those three providers. LiveKit documentation does not list conversation-duration caps for OpenAI Realtime, Gemini, or GPT‑5.4 mini.
What you can do next:
• Query each provider directly at runtime (their APIs or account endpoints often expose TTLs, usage, or quota info).
• Enforce timeouts in your agent code (e.g., per-session timers) so you don’t rely on undocumented provider limits.
• If you want, tell me which provider you want to check first (OpenAI Realtime, Gemini, or GPT‑5.4 mini) and I’ll outline the likely provider-specific endpoints or an agent-side wrapper pattern to track remaining session time.
