Agent Frontends

How a browser connects to the dental receptionist through LiveKit Cloud, the role of rooms, tokens, tracks, text streams, participant attributes, and the data plane that carries booking confirmations.

Scaffold the project, build a token endpoint that creates dental session rooms, grant patients publish/subscribe/data permissions, and connect to Maya via the Session API.

Understand how LiveKit assigns agents to rooms. Configure explicit dispatch with agent names, dispatch agents from tokens and the API, pass metadata, and dispatch multiple agents to a single room.

Track Maya's lifecycle (connecting, listening, thinking, speaking, disconnected) and build a dental-specific UI that shows patient names from participant attributes and handles errors with booking-aware recovery.

Display a streaming dental conversation transcript and subscribe to the booking-confirmation text stream to render appointment confirmation cards when Maya books an appointment.

Add text input for patients who need to spell names, insurance IDs, or medications. Voice and text work simultaneously — Maya handles both identically.

Build a date picker that calls checkAvailability via RPC, display time slots as clickable buttons, use bidirectional RPC to let Maya trigger frontend forms, and track appointment progress with data channel status updates.
