# Voice Agents Examples

This directory contains examples demonstrating various capabilities and integrations with the LiveKit Agents framework.

## Model Configuration

Most examples use **LiveKit Inference** by default, which provides a unified API for accessing STT, LLM, and TTS models:

```python
from livekit.agents import inference

session = AgentSession(
    stt=inference.STT("deepgram/nova-3"),
    llm=inference.LLM("openai/gpt-4.1-mini"),
    tts=inference.TTS("cartesia/sonic-3"),
)
```

**Note:** Real-time voice-to-voice models (Amazon Nova Sonic, xAI Grok, etc.) are not supported by LiveKit Inference and must use the provider plugin directly.

## Table of Contents

### Getting Started

- [`basic_agent.py`](./basic_agent.py) - A fundamental voice agent with multilingual STT, turn detection, preemptive generation, and metrics collection

### Real-time Models

> **Note:** Real-time models use provider plugins directly. These examples require provider-specific API keys.

- [`grok/`](./grok/) - xAI Grok Voice Agents API with built-in X.com and web search

### MCP & External Integrations

- [`mcp/`](./mcp/) - Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration examples
  - [`mcp-agent.py`](./mcp/mcp-agent.py) - Connecting an agent to an MCP server
  - [`server.py`](./mcp/server.py) - MCP server example

### RAG & Knowledge Management
