Enum ContextDelivery 

pub enum ContextDelivery {
    Immediate,
    Deferred,
}

When to deliver model-role context turns to the wire.

Controls timing of context injection (tool advisory, repair nudge, steering modifiers, phase instructions, on_enter_context).

Mode	Behavior	Best for
Immediate	Send as single batched frame during TurnComplete	Low-latency apps, text-only
Deferred	Queue until next user send (audio/text/video)	Voice apps where mid-silence sends cause glitches

Example

Live::builder()
    .steering_mode(SteeringMode::ContextInjection)
    .context_delivery(ContextDelivery::Deferred)  // flush with next user audio
    .phase("greeting")
        .instruction("Welcome the guest")
        .done()
    .initial_phase("greeting")

Variants

Immediate

Send batched context immediately during TurnComplete processing.

All context turns are accumulated into a single send_client_content call and sent as one WebSocket frame. The model receives the context as soon as the turn completes, before the next user interaction.

Deferred

Queue context and flush before the next user send.

Context turns are pushed into a PendingContext buffer. The DeferredWriter drains this buffer before forwarding send_audio, send_text, or send_video — ensuring context arrives in the same burst as user content.

This eliminates the “extraneous message” problem where isolated context frames sent during silence can cause the model to interrupt or produce unexpected responses.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for ContextDelivery

fn clone(&self) -> ContextDelivery

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for ContextDelivery

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for ContextDelivery

fn default() -> ContextDelivery

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl PartialEq for ContextDelivery

fn eq(&self, other: &ContextDelivery) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
