What's New
Plugin release updates core dependency to 1.9.0, enabling telemetry and stability improvements.
New Features
- Telemetry monitoring for event loop blocking is now available via updated core dependency.
Improvements
- STT providers remain healthy when fallback streams close with transcripts in flight.
- Deadlock prevention for late inline AgentTasks during handoff and shutdown is improved.
Bug Fixes
- DuplexModels now fail fast with a clear error instead of timing out under text simulations.
- Audio sink placement now matches the moment playback actually finished rather than inferring it.
Upgrade Notes
No configuration changes required; simply update the plugin package to version 1.9.0.
