Welcome

Voice Agent

The welcome message confirms there has been a successful connection to the websocket.

The Welcome message serves as the initial handshake between a voice agent and the server, signaling that the websocket connection is successfully established. By including a unique request_id, it ensures that each interaction is traceable and distinct. This message is critical for synchronizing the client and server, enabling a voice agent to proceed with further actions.

The server will immediately send a Welcome message as soon as the websocket opens.
