Overview
Telnyx provides access to Llama 3.1 and other models through their inference API. These models are multilingual and text-only, making them suitable for a variety of agent applications.
Usage
Install the OpenAI plugin to add Telnyx support:
pip install "livekit-agents[openai]~=1.0"
Set the following environment variable in your .env
file:
TELNYX_API_KEY=<your-telnyx-api-key>
Create a Telnyx LLM using the with_telnyx
method:
from livekit.plugins import openaisession = AgentSession(llm=openai.LLM.with_telnyx(model="meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct",temperature=0.7),# ... tts, stt, vad, turn_detection, etc.)
Parameters
This section describes some of the available parameters. For a complete reference of all available parameters, see the method reference.
Model to use for inference. To learn more, see supported models.
Controls the randomness of the model's output. Higher values (e.g., 0.8) make the output more random, while lower values (e.g., 0.2) make it more focused and deterministic.
Valid values are between 0
and 2
.
Controls whether the model can make multiple tool calls in parallel. When enabled, the model can make multiple tool calls simultaneously, which can improve performance for complex tasks.
Controls how the model uses tools. Set to 'auto' to let the model decide, 'required' to force tool usage, or 'none' to disable tool usage.
