nice work. can we just call this qwen? that way when new versions of the model come out, we don't need to create new plugins

Sure thing! Cheers David!

@rocky-terracotta Thanks for your code. I tested it, and the real-time stt works great. Looking forward to the code being merged.

Great! @cosyman Do you know if there's anything further I need to do for this to be merged?

just renaming the plugin to qwen instead of qwen3

[cosyman]

Hi @rocky-terracotta — just a friendly reminder about this PR. David’s remaining request is to rename the plugin from qwen3 to qwen. I noticed you’ve been active on GitHub again, so I wanted to bring this back to your attention. The real-time STT worked great in my testing, and it would be great to see this merged. Thanks!

Hi @rocky-terracotta, @davidzhao. I have opened #7224 with a livekit-plugins-qwen package (named per the review here) covering realtime STT and TTS plus an LLM helper, with hermetic tests. Happy to fold in anything from this PR, or to close mine if this one picks back up.
