### Body (preview)

osman-sultan created an issue (openai/openai-agents-python#1525)



### Question

I was wondering if defining handoffs to a regular agent is possible for a realtime agent? Currently the docs only show how to define handoffs to other realtime agents. I have a realtime voice agent and since the context window is comparatively smaller, I wanted a text based planner agent to run as a handoff
