issue: using generic exception instead of specific type
before: raise Exception(f"Error event: {evt.get('error')}")
after: raise STTWebsocketConnectionError(f"Error event: {evt.get('error')}")
fix: changed to use specific exception type

9. incorrect import alias

file: src/agents/model_settings.py (line 7)

fix: updated to return not_given and imported the constant

this is correct

If you want to run MCP servers locally via stdio, in a VPC or other non-publicly-accessible
environment, or you just prefer to run tool calls locally, then you can instead use the servers
in `agents.mcp` and pass `Agent(mcp_servers=[...])` to the agent."""

using generic Exception may not be good but using STTWebsocketConnectionError here is not relevant.
