Real-time voice AI agents
LiveKit Agents is a Python framework used to develop real-time audio and video artificial intelligence agents. It enables developers to create low-latency voice interactions, making it easier to create AI systems that respond human-like.

I want to develop an artificial intelligence agent that can interact with real-time voice using LiveKit Agents. Create an initial template using the Agent, AgentSession, and JobContext structure required for the agent to listen to the user, understand the ends of the conversation, and respond using the specified tools. Explain how I can configure the STT, LLM and TTS required for voice responses and how I can define functional tools on this agent.
Repository: https://github.com/livekit/agents. Follow the official instructions in the README of this repository for setup and execution.
Before starting, check which OS we are on and if the necessary tools (e.g., Python, Node.js, Git, Docker) are installed. Install any missing ones step-by-step according to this system.
Create a new, empty folder to work in. Do not touch any files outside this folder and do not delete anything. Tell me what you are going to do in one sentence before running each command.
Tell me what I should see on the screen at the end of each step. If an error occurs, I will paste the error message to you exactly as it is, and we will fix it together.
