Quickstart guide

Integrating Agora's real-time audio communication capabilities with OpenAI's language models enables dynamic, conversational AI experiences. This guide shows you how to set up a Python project that combines Agora's server-side Voice SDK with OpenAI's API to create an interactive, voice-driven assistant.

Understand the tech

The RealtimeKitAgent class manages the integration by connecting to an Agora channel for real-time audio streaming and to OpenAI's API for processing audio input and generating AI-driven responses. Audio frames captured from the Agora channel are streamed to OpenAI's API, where the AI processes the input. The API responses, which include transcribed text and synthesized voice output, are then delivered back to the Agora channel.

The code sets up tools that can be executed locally or passed through the API, allowing the AI to perform specific tasks, such as retrieving data from external sources. The agent processes various message types from OpenAI, including audio responses, transcription updates, and error messages, and sends them to users through the Agora audio channel, facilitating continuous interaction.

The following figure illustrates the integration topology:

RealtimeKitAgent

The RealtimeKitAgent class integrates Agora's real-time audio communication with OpenAI’s AI services. It handles streaming, communication with the OpenAI API, and AI responses, creating a seamless conversational experience.

Connect to Agora and OpenAI

The setup_and_run_agent method connects to an Agora channel using RtcEngine, and sets up a session with OpenAI’s Realtime API. It configures the session parameters, such as system messages and voice settings, and uses asynchronous tasks to concurrently listen for the session to start and update the conversation configuration. In the base agent.py file, replace the placeholder with the following implementation.

    @classmethod
    async def setup_and_run_agent(
        cls,
        *,
        engine: RtcEngine,
        options: RtcOptions,
        inference_config: InferenceConfig,
        tools: ToolContext | None,
    ) -> None:
        channel = engine.create_channel(options)
        await channel.connect()
        try:
            async with RealtimeApiConnection(
                base_uri="wss://api.openai.com",
                api_key=os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY"),
                verbose=False,
            ) as connection:
                await connection.send_request(
                    SessionUpdate(
                        session=SessionUpdateParams(
                            # MARK: check this
                            turn_detection=inference_config.turn_detection,
                            tools=tools.model_description() if tools else [],
                            tool_choice="auto",
                            input_audio_format="pcm16",
                            output_audio_format="pcm16",
                            instructions=inference_config.system_message,
                            voice=inference_config.voice,
                            model=os.environ.get("OPENAI_MODEL", "gpt-4o-realtime-preview"),
                            modalities=["text", "audio"],
                            temperature=0.8,
                            max_response_output_tokens="inf",
                        )
                    )
                )
                start_session_message = await anext(connection.listen())
                # assert isinstance(start_session_message, messages.StartSession)
                logger.info(
                    f"Session started: {start_session_message.session.id} model: {start_session_message.session.model}"
                )
                agent = cls(
                    connection=connection,
                    tools=tools,
                    channel=channel,
                )
                await agent.run()
        finally:
            await channel.disconnect()
            await connection.close()

Initialize the RealtimeKitAgent

The constructor for RealtimeKitAgent sets up the OpenAI client, optional tools, and Agora channel to manage real-time audio communication. In agent.py, add the following code after the setup_and_run_agent method:

    def __init__(
        self,
        *,
        connection: RealtimeApiConnection,
        tools: ToolContext | None,
        channel: Channel,
    ) -> None:
        self.connection = connection
        self.tools = tools
        self._client_tool_futures = {}
        self.channel = channel
        self.subscribe_user = None
        self.write_pcm = os.environ.get("WRITE_AGENT_PCM", "false") == "true"
        logger.info(f"Write PCM: {self.write_pcm}")

Launch the Agent

The run method is the core of the RealtimeKitAgent. It manages the agent’s operations by handling audio streams, subscribing to remote users, and processing both incoming and outgoing messages. This method also ensures proper exception handling and graceful shutdown. Following are the key functions of this method:

Waiting for remote users: The agent waits for a remote user to join the Agora channel and subscribes to their audio stream.
Task management: The agent initiates tasks for audio input, audio output, and processing messages from OpenAI, ensuring that they run concurrently.
Connection state handling: It monitors changes in connection state and handles user disconnections, ensuring the agent shuts down gracefully.

In agent.py, replace the run placeholder with the following:

    async def run(self) -> None:
        try:
            def log_exception(t: asyncio.Task[Any]) -> None:
                if not t.cancelled() and t.exception():
                    logger.error(
                        "unhandled exception",
                        exc_info=t.exception(),
                    )
            logger.info("Waiting for remote user to join")
            self.subscribe_user = await wait_for_remote_user(self.channel)
            logger.info(f"Subscribing to user {self.subscribe_user}")
            await self.channel.subscribe_audio(self.subscribe_user)
            async def on_user_left(
                agora_rtc_conn: RTCConnection, user_id: int, reason: int
            ):
                logger.info(f"User left: {user_id}")
                if self.subscribe_user == user_id:
                    self.subscribe_user = None
                    logger.info("Subscribed user left, disconnecting")
                    await self.channel.disconnect()
            self.channel.on("user_left", on_user_left)
            disconnected_future = asyncio.Future[None]()
            def callback(agora_rtc_conn: RTCConnection, conn_info: RTCConnInfo, reason):
                logger.info(f"Connection state changed: {conn_info.state}")
                if conn_info.state == 1:
                    if not disconnected_future.done():
                        disconnected_future.set_result(None)
            self.channel.on("connection_state_changed", callback)
            asyncio.create_task(self.rtc_to_model()).add_done_callback(log_exception)
            asyncio.create_task(self.model_to_rtc()).add_done_callback(log_exception)
            asyncio.create_task(self._process_model_messages()).add_done_callback(
                log_exception
            )
            await disconnected_future
            logger.info("Agent finished running")
        except asyncio.CancelledError:
            logger.info("Agent cancelled")
        except Exception as e:
            logger.error(f"Error running agent: {e}")
            raise

Communicate with the AI model

The RealtimeKitAgent is responsible for managing real-time audio communication between Agora and OpenAI’s AI model. It implements this through two core streaming methods:

rtc_to_model: Captures audio frames from the Agora channel and streams them to OpenAI’s model for processing.
model_to_rtc: Handles the output by pushing audio responses from OpenAI’s model back to the Agora channel for playback.

Additionally, the agent must process messages received from the OpenAI model. This is handled by the _process_model_messages method.

Stream input audio to the AI model

The rtc_to_model method captures audio frames from the Agora channel and streams them to OpenAI’s model for processing. This method runs continuously, retrieving audio frames from the subscribed user and forwarding them through the OpenAI API.

The code implements the following key features:

Subscription check: Ensures that a remote user is subscribed before capturing any audio frames.
Audio frame processing: Sends each audio frame from the Agora channel to OpenAI’s model.
Error handling: Logs any errors that occur during the audio streaming process.

Replace the rtc_to_model placeholder in agent.py with the following implementation:

    async def rtc_to_model(self) -> None:
        if self.subscribe_user is None:
            await asyncio.sleep(0.1)
        audio_frames = self.channel.get_audio_frames(self.subscribe_user)
        # Initialize PCMWriter for receiving audio
        pcm_writer = PCMWriter(prefix="rtc_to_model", write_pcm=self.write_pcm)
        try:
            async for audio_frame in audio_frames:
                # Process received audio (send to model)
                _monitor_queue_size(self.audio_queue, "audio_queue")
                await self.connection.send_audio_data(audio_frame.data)
                # Write PCM data if enabled
                await pcm_writer.write(audio_frame.data)
                await asyncio.sleep(0)  # Yield control to allow other tasks to run
        except asyncio.CancelledError:
            # Write any remaining PCM data before exiting
            await pcm_writer.flush()
            raise  # Re-raise the exception to propagate cancellation

Stream audio queue to audio output

The model_to_rtc method streams audio generated by OpenAI’s model back to the Agora channel. It retrieves audio data from an internal queue and pushes it to Agora for real-time playback.

The code implements the following key features:

Audio queue management: Retrieves audio data from an asynchronous queue filled with responses from OpenAI’s model.
Efficient task management: After processing each audio frame, the method yields control to ensure other tasks can run concurrently.
Real-time playback: Audio data is pushed to the Agora channel for immediate playback to the user.

Replace the model_to_rtc placeholder in agent.py with the following implementation:

    async def model_to_rtc(self) -> None:
        # Initialize PCMWriter for sending audio
        pcm_writer = PCMWriter(prefix="model_to_rtc", write_pcm=self.write_pcm)
        try:
            while True:
                # Get audio frame from the model output
                frame = await self.audio_queue.get()
                # Process sending audio (to RTC)
                await self.channel.push_audio_frame(frame)
                # Write PCM data if enabled
                await pcm_writer.write(frame)
        except asyncio.CancelledError:
            # Write any remaining PCM data before exiting
            await pcm_writer.flush()
            raise  # Re-raise the cancelled exception to properly exit the task

Process model messages

In addition to handling audio streaming, the agent must process messages received from the OpenAI model. Message processing in RealtimeKitAgent is central to how the agent interacts with OpenAI’s model and the Agora channel. Messages received from the model can include audio data, text transcripts, or other responses, and the agent needs to process these accordingly to ensure smooth real-time communication.

The _process_model_messages method listens for incoming messages and handles them according to their type, ensuring the appropriate action is taken, such as playing back audio, sending text transcripts, or invoking tools.

async def _process_model_messages(self) -> None:
    # Continuously listen for incoming messages from OpenAI
    async for message in self.client.listen():
        match message:
            # Handle different message types

Key features implemented by _process_model_messages:

Listening for messages: The agent continuously listens for incoming messages from OpenAI’s model.
Handling audio data: If the message contains audio data, it is placed in a queue for playback to the Agora channel.
Handling transcripts: If the message contains partial or final text transcripts, they are processed and sent to the Agora chat.
Handling other responses: Additional message types, such as tool invocations and other outputs are processed as needed.

Audio and message flow

The first case in _process_model_messages method is InputAudioBufferSpeechStarted. When this event is triggered, the system clears the sender’s audio buffer on the Agora channel and empties the local audio queue to ensure no prior audio interferes with the new input. It also logs the event for tracking purposes, allowing the agent to effectively manage and process incoming audio streams.

case InputAudioBufferSpeechStarted():
    await self.channel.clear_sender_audio_buffer()
    # Clear the audio queue so audio stops playing
    while not self.audio_queue.empty():
        self.audio_queue.get_nowait()
    logger.info(f"TMS:InputAudioBufferSpeechStarted: item_id: {message.item_id}")

Response Messages

The _process_model_messages method is also responsible for handling both audio and text responses in real time. It processes various message types by managing audio data and sending text messages to the Agora chat channel.

When an audio delta message is received, the system decodes the audio and adds it to the local audio queue for playback, while also logging the event for reference. For transcript updates, the agent sends the corresponding text message to the chat asynchronously, ensuring that message handling does not block other processes. Finally, when the transcript is complete, the system logs the event and sends the final message to the Agora chat.

case ResponseAudioDelta():
    # logger.info("Received audio message")
    self.audio_queue.put_nowait(base64.b64decode(message.delta))
    # loop.call_soon_threadsafe(self.audio_queue.put_nowait, base64.b64decode(message.delta))
    logger.info(f"TMS:ResponseAudioDelta: response_id:{message.response_id},item_id: {message.item_id}")
case ResponseAudioTranscriptDelta():
    # logger.info(f"Received text message {message=}")
    asyncio.create_task(self.channel.chat.send_message(
        ChatMessage(
            message=to_json(message), msg_id=message.item_id
        )
    ))
case ResponseAudioTranscriptDone():
    logger.info(f"Text message done: {message=}")
    asyncio.create_task(self.channel.chat.send_message(
        ChatMessage(
            message=to_json(message), msg_id=message.item_id
        )

Handling message responses

Following is the full implementation of _process_model_messages that incorporates code snippets from previous sections. In the full implementation, audio input events are handled by clearing audio buffers and queues when speech starts or stops. Audio deltas are decoded and placed into the local queue, while transcript messages are sent asynchronously to the Agora chat.

The agent can be extended to support a variety of other message types, including tool calls, errors, and other outputs from OpenAI’s model. If the agent encounters an unhandled message type, it logs a warning to notify developers for further investigation.

    async def _process_model_messages(self) -> None:
        async for message in self.connection.listen():
            # logger.info(f"Received message {message=}")
            match message:
                case InputAudioBufferSpeechStarted():
                    await self.channel.clear_sender_audio_buffer()
                    # clear the audio queue so audio stops playing
                    while not self.audio_queue.empty():
                        self.audio_queue.get_nowait()
                    logger.info(f"TMS:InputAudioBufferSpeechStarted: item_id: {message.item_id}")
                case InputAudioBufferSpeechStopped():
                    logger.info(f"TMS:InputAudioBufferSpeechStopped: item_id: {message.item_id}")
                    pass
                case ResponseAudioDelta():
                    # logger.info("Received audio message")
                    self.audio_queue.put_nowait(base64.b64decode(message.delta))
                    # loop.call_soon_threadsafe(self.audio_queue.put_nowait, base64.b64decode(message.delta))
                    logger.info(f"TMS:ResponseAudioDelta: response_id:{message.response_id},item_id: {message.item_id}")
                case ResponseAudioTranscriptDelta():

                            message=to_json(message), msg_id=message.item_id
                        )
                    ))
                case ResponseAudioTranscriptDone():
                    logger.info(f"Text message done: {message=}")
                    asyncio.create_task(self.channel.chat.send_message(
                        ChatMessage(
                            message=to_json(message), msg_id=message.item_id
                        )
                    ))
                #  InputAudioBufferCommitted
                case InputAudioBufferCommitted():
                    pass
                case ItemCreated():
                    pass
                # ResponseCreated
                case ResponseCreated():

                # ResponseDone
                case ResponseDone():
                    pass
                # ResponseOutputItemAdded
                case ResponseOutputItemAdded():
                    pass
                # ResponseContenPartAdded
                case ResponseContentPartAdded():
                    pass
                # ResponseAudioDone
                case ResponseAudioDone():
                    pass
                # ResponseContentPartDone
                case ResponseContentPartDone():
                    pass
                # ResponseOutputItemDone
                case ResponseOutputItemDone():
                    pass
                case SessionUpdated():
                    pass
                case RateLimitsUpdated():
                    pass
                case _:
                    logger.warning(f"Unhandled message {message=}")

Using these components, the agent handles audio, transcripts, and other messages in real-time, ensuring that it responds appropriately to OpenAI model’s output and maintains seamless communication with the Agora channel.

Wait for a remote user

The wait_for_remote_user function is a key component of the agent's functionality. It listens for an event where a remote user joins the Agora channel. This function will block until a user joins or until it times out.

The method implements the following:

Event listener: The function listens for the user_joined event from the Agora SDK. When a user joins the channel, it captures the user ID and signals that a user has joined using remote_user_joined.set().
Timeout handling: If no user joins within the specified timeout, a TimeoutError is raised and logged as an error.
Cleanup: After successfully getting a user ID or timing out, the event listener is removed using channel.off("user_joined", on_user_joined).

In agent.py, replace the wait_for_remote_user placeholder code with:

async def wait_for_remote_user(channel: Channel) -> int:
    remote_users = list(channel.remote_users.keys())
    if len(remote_users) > 0:
        return remote_users[0]
    future = asyncio.Future[int]()
    channel.once("user_joined", lambda conn, user_id: future.set_result(user_id))
    try:
        # Wait for the remote user with a timeout of 30 seconds
        remote_user = await asyncio.wait_for(future, timeout=30.0)
        return remote_user
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        future.cancel()
    except Exception as e:
        logger.error(f"Error waiting for remote user: {e}")
        raise

Utils

In the agent.py file, we initialize a PCMWriter instance, which is responsible for writing audio frames to a file that is sent to the AI for processing. The PCMWriter class, along with its methods, is defined in the utils.py file.

import asyncio
import functools
from datetime import datetime
def write_pcm_to_file(buffer: bytearray, file_name: str) -> None:
    """Helper function to write PCM data to a file."""
    with open(file_name, "ab") as f:  # append to file
        f.write(buffer)
def generate_file_name(prefix: str) -> str:
    # Create a timestamp for the file name
    timestamp = datetime.now().strftime("%Y%m%d_%H%M%S")
    return f"{prefix}_{timestamp}.pcm"
class PCMWriter:
    def __init__(self, prefix: str, write_pcm: bool, buffer_size: int = 1024 * 64):
        self.write_pcm = write_pcm
        self.buffer = bytearray()
        self.buffer_size = buffer_size
        self.file_name = generate_file_name(prefix) if write_pcm else None
        self.loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
    async def write(self, data: bytes) -> None:
        """Accumulate data into the buffer and write to file when necessary."""
        if not self.write_pcm:
            return
        self.buffer.extend(data)
        # Write to file if buffer is full
        if len(self.buffer) >= self.buffer_size:
            await self._flush()
    async def flush(self) -> None:
        """Write any remaining data in the buffer to the file."""
        if self.write_pcm and self.buffer:
            await self._flush()
    async def _flush(self) -> None:
        """Helper method to write the buffer to the file."""
        if self.file_name:
            await self.loop.run_in_executor(
                None,
                functools.partial(write_pcm_to_file, self.buffer[:], self.file_name),
            )
        self.buffer.clear()

OpenAI Connection

The connection.py file manages the real-time communication between the agent and OpenAI’s API. It handles the connection setup, sending and receiving messages, and managing audio data streaming. The RealtimeApiConnection class encapsulates all the connection logic, making it easier to integrate real-time AI responses.

Open realtime/connection.py and add the imports and the smart_str function, used to parse JSON data, truncate fields (like delta or audio) to a maximum length for logging purposes, and then re-serialize the modified data.

import asyncio
import base64
import json
import logging
import os
import aiohttp
from typing import Any, AsyncGenerator
from .struct import InputAudioBufferAppend, ClientToServerMessage, ServerToClientMessage, parse_server_message, to_json
from logger import setup_logger
logger = setup_logger(name=__name__, log_level=logging.INFO)
def smart_str(s: str, max_field_len: int = 128) -> str:
    """parse string as json, truncate data field to 128 characters, reserialize"""
    try:
        data = json.loads(s)
        if "delta" in data:
            key = "delta"
        elif "audio" in data:
            key = "audio"
        else:
            return s
        if len(data[key]) > max_field_len:
            data[key] = data[key][:max_field_len] + "..."
        return json.dumps(data)
    except json.JSONDecodeError:
        return s

RealtimeApiConnection class

The RealtimeApiConnection class manages the real-time API connection. During initialization the OpenAI key, API URL (includes model), and authentication token are passed to the client and the WebSocket session is initialized. The connect method establishes a WebSocket connection to the specified URL using authentication headers. The close method ensures that the WebSocket connection is closed gracefully, preventing resource leaks. This connection lifecycle management is crucial for handling long-running WebSocket sessions in real-time applications.

class RealtimeApiConnection:
    def __init__(
        self,
        base_uri: str,
        api_key: str | None = None,
        path: str = "/v1/realtime",
        verbose: bool = False,
        model: str = "gpt-4o-realtime-preview", #DEFAULT_MODEL
    ):
        self.url = f"{base_uri}{path}"
        if "model=" not in self.url:
            self.url += f"?model={model}"
        self.api_key = api_key or os.environ.get("OPENAI_API_KEY")
        self.websocket: aiohttp.ClientWebSocketResponse | None = None
        self.verbose = verbose
        self.session = aiohttp.ClientSession()
    # Establish connection
    async def connect(self):
        auth = aiohttp.BasicAuth("", self.api_key) if self.api_key else None
        headers = {"OpenAI-Beta": "realtime=v1"}
        self.websocket = await self.session.ws_connect(
            url=self.url,
            auth=auth,
            headers=headers,
        )
    # Close Connection
    async def close(self):
        # Close the websocket connection if it exists
        if self.websocket:
            await self.websocket.close()
            self.websocket = None

Context manager for connection lifecycle

These methods allow the RealtimeApiConnection class to be used as an asynchronous context manager, ensuring that the connection is opened when entering the context and properly closed when exiting. This pattern simplifies resource management, especially for long-lived connections in asynchronous workflows.

    async def __aenter__(self) -> "RealtimeApiConnection":
        await self.connect()
        return self
    async def __aexit__(self, exc_type: Any, exc_value: Any, traceback: Any) -> bool:
        await self.close()
        return False

Sending audio data and messages

The send_audio_data method sends audio data (encoded in base64) over the WebSocket. It packages the audio data into a ClientToServerMessage and calls send_request to transmit it. The send_request method logs the outgoing message (if verbose logging is enabled) and sends it through the WebSocket connection.

    async def send_audio_data(self, audio_data: bytes):
        base64_audio_data = base64.b64encode(audio_data).decode("utf-8")
        message = InputAudioBufferAppend(audio=base64_audio_data)
        await self.send_request(message)
    async def send_request(self, message: ClientToServerMessage):
        assert self.websocket is not None
        message_str = to_json(message)
        if self.verbose:
            logger.info(f"-> {smart_str(message_str)}")
        await self.websocket.send_str(message_str)

Listening for incoming messages

The listen method listens for incoming messages from the WebSocket. It uses an asynchronous generator to handle incoming messages in a non-blocking way. Depending on the message type (text or error), it processes the message and passes it to handle_server_message. If verbose logging is enabled, incoming messages are logged to facilitate debugging.

    async def listen(self) -> AsyncGenerator[ServerToClientMessage, None]:
        assert self.websocket is not None
        if self.verbose:
            logger.info("Listening for realtime api messages")
        try:
            async for msg in self.websocket:
                if msg.type == aiohttp.WSMsgType.TEXT:
                    if self.verbose:
                        logger.info(f"<- {smart_str(msg.data)}")
                    yield self.handle_server_message(msg.data)
                elif msg.type == aiohttp.WSMsgType.ERROR:
                    logger.error("Error during receive: %s", self.websocket.exception())
                    break
        except asyncio.CancelledError:
            logger.info("Receive messages task cancelled")

Handling server messages

The handle_server_message method parses the server’s message and handles any exceptions that occur during parsing. This method ensures that malformed messages are logged as errors, helping to track down issues with the server response format.

    def handle_server_message(self, message: str) -> ServerToClientMessage:
        try:
            return parse_server_message(message)
        except Exception as e:
            logger.error("Error handling message: " + str(e))
            raise e

Struct.py

The connection class and agent utilize various classes and structures defined in realtime/struct.py. While the specifics of this file are beyond the scope of this guide, the complete code is provided below for use and reference.

Tool Management

Every agent needs a tool management system to extend the agent's functionality by allowing OpenAI’s model to invoke specific tools. These tools can either run locally or pass data back to the model for further processing. By registering tools and executing them based on incoming messages, the agent adds the capability and flexibility to handle a variety of tasks.

Tool management implements the following key features:

Tool registration: Register both local function tools and pass-through tools, making them available for execution.
Tool execution: Execute tools in response to requests from the OpenAI model, running them locally or passing data back to the model.
Tool context: The ToolContext class manages the tools, providing methods to register and execute them as needed.

Open the tools.py file and add the following code to import the required packages.

import abc
import json
import logging
from typing import Any, Callable, assert_never
from attr import dataclass
from pydantic import BaseModel
from logger import setup_logger
# Set up the logger with color and timestamp support
logger = setup_logger(name=__name__, log_level=logging.INFO)

Define Local and Passthrough tools

When setting up tools, define if the tool is executed directly by the agent on the local context, or if it sends data back to OpenAI’s model.

Local function tools: Executed directly by the agent on the local context.
Pass-through tools: Send data back to OpenAI’s model without it being executed locally.

@dataclass(frozen=True, kw_only=True)
class LocalFunctionToolDeclaration:
    """Declaration of a tool that can be called by the model, and runs a function locally on the tool context."""
    name: str
    description: str
    parameters: dict[str, Any]
    function: Callable[..., Any]
    def model_description(self) -> dict[str, Any]:
        return {
            "type": "function",
            "function": {
                "name": self.name,
                "description": self.description,
                "parameters": self.parameters,
            },
        }
@dataclass(frozen=True, kw_only=True)
class PassThroughFunctionToolDeclaration:
    """Declaration of a tool that can be called by the model."""
    name: str
    description: str
    parameters: dict[str, Any]
    def model_description(self) -> dict[str, Any]:
        return {
            "type": "function",
            "function": {
                "name": self.name,
                "description": self.description,
                "parameters": self.parameters,
            },
        }
ToolDeclaration = LocalFunctionToolDeclaration | PassThroughFunctionToolDeclaration

The ToolContext class manages all available tools. It provides the logic for both registering tools and executing them when requested by the OpenAI model. Once tools are registered, the agent can execute them in response to messages from OpenAI’s model. The agent listens for tool call requests and either executes the tool locally or passes data back to the model.

In the ToolContext class, the execute_tool method retrieves the tool by name and runs it with the provided arguments. If it is a local function tool, the agent executes the function and returns the result. If it is a pass-through tool, it simply returns the decoded arguments to the model for further processing.

@dataclass(frozen=True, kw_only=True)
class LocalToolCallExecuted:
    json_encoded_output: str
@dataclass(frozen=True, kw_only=True)
class ShouldPassThroughToolCall:
    decoded_function_args: dict[str, Any]
ExecuteToolCallResult = LocalToolCallExecuted | ShouldPassThroughToolCall

Tool registration and invocation

Registering tools during the setup process makes them available for the model to call.

class ToolContext(abc.ABC):
    _tool_declarations: dict[str, ToolDeclaration]
    def __init__(self) -> None:
        # TODO should be an ordered dict
        self._tool_declarations = {}
    def register_function(
        self,
        *,
        name: str,
        description: str = "",
        parameters: dict[str, Any],
        fn: Callable[..., Any],
    ) -> None:
        self._tool_declarations[name] = LocalFunctionToolDeclaration(
            name=name, description=description, parameters=parameters, function=fn
        )
    def register_client_function(
        self,
        *,
        name: str,
        description: str = "",
        parameters: dict[str, Any],
    ) -> None:
        self._tool_declarations[name] = PassThroughFunctionToolDeclaration(
            name=name, description=description, parameters=parameters
        )
    async def execute_tool(
        self, tool_name: str, encoded_function_args: str
    ) -> ExecuteToolCallResult | None:
        tool = self._tool_declarations.get(tool_name)
        if not tool:
            return None
        args = json.loads(encoded_function_args)
        assert isinstance(args, dict)
        if isinstance(tool, LocalFunctionToolDeclaration):
            logger.info(f"Executing tool {tool_name} with args {args}")
            result = await tool.function(**args)
            logger.info(f"Tool {tool_name} executed with result {result}")
            return LocalToolCallExecuted(json_encoded_output=json.dumps(result))
        if isinstance(tool, PassThroughFunctionToolDeclaration):
            return ShouldPassThroughToolCall(decoded_function_args=args)
        assert_never(tool)
    def model_description(self) -> list[dict[str, Any]]:
        return [v.model_description() for v in self._tool_declarations.values()]

Tool invocation in message processing

It is important to highlight how tools are invoked. During message processing, certain messages may trigger tool invocations, prompting the agent to execute the relevant tool.

The following flow illustrates how this works:

The OpenAI model sends a message that includes a tool call.
The _process_model_messages method identifies the tool call request.
The agent retrieves the relevant tool from the ToolContext and executes it, either locally or by passing data back to the model.

This integration between message processing and tool management ensures that the agent can extend its capabilities dynamically, performing tasks or calculations in real-time based on incoming requests.

The ClientToolCallResponse model represents the response after a tool is invoked and processed. This class is designed to represent the response of a client-side tool call, where the tool_call_id uniquely identifies the tool call, and the result can take on multiple data types, representing the output of that call. The flexibility in the result field allows for a wide variety of responses.

class ClientToolCallResponse(BaseModel):
    tool_call_id: str
    result: dict[str, Any] | str | float | int | bool | None = None

With these pieces in place, the agent can effectively manage tool registration and execution, ensuring that it can handle a variety of tasks as directed by the OpenAI model. This structure allows the agent to either execute functions locally or pass them to the model for further handling.

Set up a server

The main.py script orchestrates the initialization of an HTTP server that allows clients to start and stop AI-driven agents in Agora voice channels. It includes routes for starting and stopping agents, manages processes for different channels, and handles cleanup and shutdown procedures. The agents run as separate processes, ensuring they can handle real-time interactions without blocking the main server. The application leverages aiohttp for handling HTTP requests, multiprocessing to manage agent processes, and asyncio for non-blocking execution.

Open main.py and add the following code to set up the imports and load the .env variables.

import asyncio
import logging
import os
import signal
from multiprocessing import Process
from aiohttp import web
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field, ValidationError
from realtime.struct import PCM_CHANNELS, PCM_SAMPLE_RATE, ServerVADUpdateParams, Voices
from agent import InferenceConfig, RealtimeKitAgent
from agora_realtime_ai_api.rtc import RtcEngine, RtcOptions
from logger import setup_logger
from parse_args import parse_args, parse_args_realtimekit
# Set up the logger 
logger = setup_logger(name=__name__, log_level=logging.INFO)
# Load and validate the environment variables
load_dotenv(override=True)
app_id = os.environ.get("AGORA_APP_ID")
app_cert = os.environ.get("AGORA_APP_CERT")
if not app_id:
    raise ValueError("AGORA_APP_ID must be set in the environment.")
class StartAgentRequestBody(BaseModel):
    channel_name: str = Field(..., description="The name of the channel")
    uid: int = Field(..., description="The UID of the user")
    language: str = Field("en", description="The language of the agent")
class StopAgentRequestBody(BaseModel):
    channel_name: str = Field(..., description="The name of the channel")

Process management and signal handling

The monitor_process function asynchronously monitors each agent process, ensuring that once it finishes, the process is cleaned up. handle_agent_proc_signal ensures that any agent receiving a termination signal exits gracefully. This process management ensures that the application can run multiple agents concurrently while maintaining proper resource management.

async def monitor_process(channel_name: str, process: Process):
    # Wait for the process to finish in a non-blocking way
    await asyncio.to_thread(process.join)
    logger.info(f"Process for channel {channel_name} has finished")
    # Perform additional work after the process finishes

Run the agent

The run_agent_in_process method starts a RealtimeKitAgent in a new process, handling Agora RTC initialization with the necessary credentials and agent configuration.

    engine_app_cert: str,

HTTP Routes for Managing Agents

The start_agent and stop_agent routes are the main HTTP endpoints that allow clients to control the agents. As part of the start and stop we need to keep track of the active_processes.

# Dictionary to keep track of processes by channel name or UID
active_processes = {}

When a POST request is made to /start_agent, the server validates the request, starts a new agent process (if one isn’t already running), and begins monitoring it. The processes are stored in an active_processes dictionary for efficient management.

async def start_agent(request):
    try:
        # Parse and validate JSON body using the pydantic model
        try:
            data = await request.json()
            validated_data = StartAgentRequestBody(**data)
        except ValidationError as e:

            )
        # Parse JSON body
        channel_name = validated_data.channel_name
        uid = validated_data.uid
        language = validated_data.language
        # Check if a process is already running for the given channel_name
        if (
            channel_name in active_processes
            and active_processes[channel_name].is_alive()
        ):
            return web.json_response(
                {"error": f"Agent already running for channel: {channel_name}"},

The stop_agent route handles requests to stop an active agent. It first validates the request body using StopAgentRequestBody. If a process is found for the specified channel, it terminates the process using os.kill and sends a SIGKILL signal. The process is then removed from the active_processes dictionary, and a response is returned to confirm termination. If no process is found, a 404 error is returned, indicating the agent was not active.

        logger.error(f"Failed to stop agent: {e}")
        return web.json_response({"error": str(e)}, status=500)

Shutdown gracefully

The shutdown function is responsible for cleaning up agent processes when the server is shutting down. It iterates through all the processes in active_processes and terminates any that are still alive, ensuring no orphaned processes remain. This is essential for graceful shutdowns, preventing resource leaks. Once all processes are terminated, it clears the active_processes dictionary to reset the server state.

async def shutdown(app):
    logger.info("Shutting down server, cleaning up processes...")
    for channel_name, process in active_processes.items():
        if process.is_alive():
            logger.info(
                f"Terminating process for channel {channel_name} (PID: {process.pid})"
            )
            await asyncio.to_thread(os.kill, process.pid, signal.SIGKILL)
            await asyncio.to_thread(process.join)  # Ensure process has terminated
    active_processes.clear()
    logger.info("All processes terminated, shutting down server")
# Signal handler to gracefully stop the application
def handle_signal(signum, frame):
    logger.info(f"Received exit signal {signal.strsignal(signum)}...")
    loop = asyncio.get_running_loop()
    if loop.is_running():
        # Properly shutdown by stopping the loop and running shutdown
        loop.create_task(shutdown(None))
        loop.stop()

aiohttp application setup

The init_app function sets up the core aiohttp web application. It defines the HTTP routes for starting and stopping AI agents with the /start_agent and /stop_agent endpoints, and attaches a cleanup task to properly shut down processes when the server exits. The function returns the initialized app object, ready to be managed by the event loop and handle incoming requests.

async def init_app():
    app = web.Application()
    # Add cleanup task to run on app exit
    app.on_cleanup.append(shutdown)
    app.add_routes([web.post("/start_agent", start_agent)])
    app.add_routes([web.post("/stop_agent", stop_agent)])
    return app

Main Entry

Now that we have the entire agent setup, we are ready to bring it all together and implement the main entry point for our project. The main entry point of the program first parses the command-line arguments to determine whether the server should be started or an agent should be run directly. If server is chosen, it sets up the event loop and starts the aiohttp web server using init_app(), which binds the routes for starting and stopping agents. If agent is selected, it parses the RealtimeKit options and starts an agent process using run_agent_in_process. This structure allows the application to either act as a server managing agents or run an individual agent directly, depending on the context.

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Parse the action argument
    args = parse_args()
    # Action logic based on the action argument
    if args.action == "server":
        # Python 3.10+ requires explicitly creating a new event loop if none exists
        try:
            loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()

            # For Python 3.10+, use this to get a new event loop if the default is closed or not created

info

The agent.py imports key classes from rtc.py, which implements the server-side Agora Python Voice SDK, facilitating communication and managing audio streams.

Test the Code

Setup and run the backend

To set up and run the backend, take the following steps:

Make sure that you have updated the files in the realtime_agent folder with the complete code.
Update the values for AGORA_APP_ID, AGORA_APP_CERT, and OPENAI_API_KEY in the project's .env file.

Ensure that the necessary credentials for Agora and OpenAI are correctly configured.
Execute the following command to run the demo agent:

_1python3 -m main agent --channel_name=<channel_name> --uid=<agent_uid>

Replace <channel_name> with the desired channel name and <agent_uid> with a unique user ID.

Start HTTP server

To start the HTTP server:

python3 -m main server

The server provides a simple layer for managing agent processes.

POST /start_agent

This api starts an agent with given graph and override properties. The started agent joins the specified channel, and subscribes to the uid which your browser/device's rtc used to join.

Param	Description
`channel_name` (string)	Use the same channel name that your browser/device joins, agent needs to be in the same channel to communicate.
`uid` (unsigned int)	The user ID that the AI agent uses to join.

Example:

curl 'http://localhost:8080/start_agent' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
    "channel_name": "test",
    "uid": 123
  }'

POST /stop_agent

This api stops the agent you started.

Param	Description
`channel_name` (string)	Use the same channel name you used to start the agent.

Example:

curl 'http://localhost:8080/stop_agent' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
    "channel_name": "test"
  }'

Front-end for testing

Use Agora's Voice Call Demo for testing. Join with your AppID and generate a token from the project settings page on the Agora Console.
