Description

Does Pipecat support maintaining some slots throughout the entire conversation to store global shared information like rasa, which is used in form-based dialogues to save and share information across different parts of the conversation?

Not directly, but it's possible. The OpenAI-based bots use OpenAILLMContext frames, which include tool calling information. This function calling example Creates a context object that is shared between the context aggregators in different parts of the pipeline.

If you're looking for more general-purpose conversation flow similar to Rasa, you may want to look at Pipecat Flows.

@chadbailey59 thanks for your replay! Pipecat flows is a great job. And i find there is a State Management in pipecat flows. How does it implement in pipecat? Where can i find the code in pipecat-ai to understand the theory?
