Use this skill when building real-time, bidirectional streaming applications with the Gemini Live API, or migrating legacy Live models (2.0/2.5/3.1) to Gemini…
Gemini Live API Development Skill Overview The Live API enables low-latency, real-time voice and video interactions with Gemini over WebSockets. It processes continuous streams of audio, video, or text to deliver immediate, human-like spoken responses and background reasoning. Key capabilities: Bidirectional audio streaming — real-time mic-to-speaker conversations Background reasoning (extended thinking) — multi-step background reasoning with spoken conversational fillers Live streaming transcription — real-time speech-to-text with interim and finalized streams Video streaming — send camera/screen frames alongside audio Text input/output — send and receive text within a live session Audio transcriptions — get text transcripts of both input and output audio Voice Activity Detection (VAD) — automatic server VAD, client-side Hybrid VAD, and manual Push-to-Talk Asynchronous function calling — non-blocking tool execution while audio continues streaming Full-session client content — inject and update conversation turns mid-stream Session management — context compression, session resumption, GoAway signals Ephemeral tokens — secure client-side authentication
