Flexible turn-taking control for Flux
Flux now gives you full control over how turns end. Beyond Flux's native end-of-turn detection, you can override it, suppress it entirely, or blend the two , and switch between these modes on the fly, even for a single turn, with a Configure message. Turn-taking goes from a fixed behavior to something you shape around each moment of a conversation.
Three modes of turn-taking
- Automatic (default). Flux's native end-of-turn detection decides when a turn ends. EndOfTurn events carry "trigger": "model" . Nothing changes for existing integrations. Semi-manual. Keep Flux's detection running, but override it whenever you have a definitive signal , a push-to-talk release, a DTMF tone, a "send" tap , by sending a ForceEndTurn .
Switch modes mid-stream , even per turn
Because eot_threshold can be updated live with a Configure message, you can change turn-taking behavior for exactly the turn that needs it and then change back. For example, when a caller is about to read an 8-character alphanumeric account ID, raise eot_threshold to 1.0 so Flux won't cut them off between characters, end the turn yourself once you've...
What's new - Flux
ForceEndTurn message. Send {"type": "ForceEndTurn"} as a WebSocket text frame to end the active turn immediately. Flux ends the turn on the audio transcribed so far and emits a standard EndOfTurn . See Force End Turn . trigger field on EndOfTurn .
What's new - Voice Agent
The Voice Agent API provides the same turn-taking control through the ForceEndTurn client message when the agent uses the Flux ( v2 ) listen provider. Send it to end the current user turn immediately, or set agent.listen.provider.eot_threshold=1.0 to fully suppress natural end-of-turn detection and drive every turn ending with ForceEndTurn .
