The per-request Ollama handlers (chat, generate, embed, embeddings,
and the OpenAI-compat completions/chat-completions/messages/responses
endpoints) fetched 'ollama.api_configs' up to three times and
'ollama.base_urls' separately within a single request — the .get()
default-argument pattern made the second api_configs fetch
unconditional, and get_api_key() triggered a third. Up to four
sequential SELECTs per request collapse to one.
A new get_ollama_connection_config() helper fetches base_urls and
api_configs together in one batched Config.get_many where both are
needed; handlers that only need api_configs fetch it once into a
local. Admin operations (pull/push/copy/delete) and the TTL-cached
model-list path are deliberately left untouched.
Resolution semantics (str(idx) key first, url-key legacy fallback,
same defaults) are unchanged.

- Move setModels() and setToolServers() out of the loaded gate in
+layout.svelte so the page renders immediately instead of blocking
behind slow/unreachable connection timeouts
- Track failed Ollama backend URLs from /api/tags and skip them in the
subsequent /api/ps fan-out, eliminating a redundant second timeout
- Silence the autocomplete toast that fires during the transient empty
model state
Adds a {{USER_AGENT}} custom-header placeholder that relays the inbound
client's User-Agent to upstream model backends, so providers see the real
client instead of Open WebUI's internal aiohttp UA. This makes upstream
usage/cost attribution and backend telemetry possible, and is opt-in
per-connection (no global flag): admins add {{USER_AGENT}} to a connection's
custom headers in Admin > Settings > Connections.
The placeholder is sourced from the live inbound request (with a metadata
fallback for detached RAG/tool calls), so it resolves on every prompt-sending
path, not just chat completions:
- OpenAI completions, Responses API, and proxy — all route through
get_headers_and_cookies, which now passes the request into get_custom_headers.
- Anthropic Messages API (/api/v1/messages) — already covered, it delegates
to the chat completion handler.
- Ollama (/api/chat, /v1/completions, /v1/chat/completions, /v1/messages,
/v1/responses) — previously had no custom-header support at all; send_request
now applies per-connection custom headers (with templating) for every
Ollama prompt endpoint.
Custom headers are applied after the built-in user-info headers so explicit
admin-configured headers take precedence. The other existing placeholders
({{CHAT_ID}}, {{USER_ID}}, ...) now also work on the newly covered paths.
Frontend: the connection editor's Headers field is now shown for Ollama
connections too (previously gated to non-Ollama), so the placeholder can be
configured there.
Ref: open-webui/open-webui#26159
routers/openai.py and routers/ollama.py decorated get_all_models with
`@cached(key=lambda _, user: ...)`. In aiocache 0.12, `key=` is a STATIC
cache key: get_cache_key returns `self.key` verbatim (the lambda object)
without calling it, so every caller collides to ONE shared entry within
the TTL. The intended per-user namespacing never happened — one user's
permission-filtered model list could be served to another user (or an
anonymous caller) during the cache window.
The per-call hook is `key_builder=` (called as key_builder(func, *args,
**kwargs)). Switch both sites to key_builder with a (func, request,
user=None) signature so the key is built per call. user=None mirrors
ollama's optional-user signature and stays correct whether user is passed
positionally, as a kwarg, or omitted.
Verified offline: old form returns the same key object for distinct users
(collision); new form yields distinct openai_all_models_<id> /
ollama_all_models_<id> keys, and the unauthenticated base key when no user.
These two were the only @cached(key=lambda ...) sites in the backend.
The Ollama model upload and download handlers perform three stages
of sync file I/O on multi-GB model files inside async handlers:
1. Persist upload — file.file.read() + write() in a loop
2. SHA-256 hash — calculate_sha256() reads the file sequentially
3. Read for blob push — open().read() loads entire model into memory
All three stages block the event loop for the duration of the I/O.
For a 4GB model, each stage freezes the event loop for 10+ seconds
while every other user's request stalls.
Wrap each blocking stage in asyncio.to_thread() in both handlers:
- upload_model(): persist upload, calculate_sha256, blob read
- download_file_stream(): calculate_sha256, blob read
Benchmark (full pipeline: write + SHA-256 + read back, 3 trials):
- 200MB: max jitter 145ms → 1ms (145x improvement)
- 500MB: max jitter 1,026ms → 1ms (1,026x improvement)
File I/O is pure I/O — no GIL contention. asyncio.to_thread()
completely eliminates event loop blocking.
bypass_system_prompt is an internal flag used by utils/middleware.py and utils/chat.py to skip applying the model system prompt on recursive base-model calls, but it was still declared as a positional argument on the openai/ollama chat-completion route handlers, so FastAPI bound it from the query string. Move it to request.state so external clients cannot set it, matching how bypass_filter is handled.
Drop the argument from both route signatures and read getattr(request.state, 'bypass_system_prompt', False); utils/chat.py sets request.state.bypass_system_prompt alongside bypass_filter and drops the kwarg from the two route-handler calls (the recursive self-calls keep it). Mirrors c0385f60b.

These four endpoints checked model existence but never verified the user has read access via AccessGrants, allowing any authenticated user to use restricted models.
Uses the canonical check_model_access helper from utils.access_control.
The /responses proxy endpoint only required authentication via
get_verified_user but did not check per-model access grants. This
allowed any authenticated user to access any model through this
endpoint, bypassing the access control system.
Extract a shared check_model_access helper into utils/access_control
and replace all inline access control blocks across openai.py and
ollama.py (7 locations) with calls to this helper. This eliminates
code duplication and prevents future policy drift between endpoints.
CWE-862: Missing Authorization
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:H (6.5 Medium)
Ollama recently added Responses API support via its OpenAI-compatible
endpoint (/v1/responses). This adds a proxy endpoint to the Ollama
router that forwards requests to Ollama's /v1/responses, applying
the same model resolution, access control, and prefix_id handling
used by the existing /v1/chat/completions and /v1/messages proxies.
Uses a typed ResponsesForm Pydantic model with required model field
and extra='allow' for forward compatibility, consistent with other
endpoint schemas in the file.
This allows API consumers (Codex, Claude Code, etc.) to use the
Responses API directly with Ollama-hosted models without requiring
a separate OpenAI-compatible connection.
`raise "string"` in Python raises TypeError instead of the intended
error, making error messages confusing and debugging difficult.

fix: reduce TTFT by caching model lookups in chat completion
Skip expensive get_all_models() calls when models are already cached
in app.state. This significantly reduces Time To First Token (TTFT)
for chat completions and embeddings requests.
Previously, every request called get_all_models() which fetches model
lists from all configured backends. Now we check the cache first and
only call get_all_models() on cache miss.
Affected endpoints:
- openai: generate_chat_completion, embeddings
- ollama: embed, embeddings

Remove Depends(get_session) from the /v1/completions endpoint to prevent database connections from being held during the entire duration of LLM calls.
Previously, the database session was acquired at request start and held until the response completed. Under concurrent load, this exhausted the connection pool, causing QueuePool timeout errors.
The fix allows Models.get_model_by_id() and has_access() to manage their own short-lived sessions internally, releasing the connection immediately after authorization checks complete.
