README.md.Expected Behavior
Within the model editor, I should be able to select any skill that I have access to from the Skills selector.
Actual Behavior
Within the Model Editor's "Skills" section, only the first 30 skills are listed. There is no pagination, search, or "load more" control, so if a user has access to more than 30 skills, any skill beyond the first 30 cannot be selected from the UI.
In the attached image, I have created 31 skills, only 30 are displayed. This 30 hard cap is from
backend/open_webui/routers/skills.pywhich is called insrc\lib\components\workspace\Models\SkillsSelector.sveltewhere it can only request the first page.This especially becomes a problem as an admin user in an OWUI deploy of a large user base. I need to assign certain skills to our base models but cannot do so because I can't see any of my skills

🟣 #18719 feat: UI Limitations Prevent Model Selection During Workspace Creation
This is about the same general UI limitation in the workspace/model editor: the base model selector is hard to use because it lacks a better search/filter experience and may not expose all available models. It’s not about skills specifically, but it matches the broader model-editor selection problem.

🟣 #22735 issue: Skills on models
This issue concerns adding skills to models in the workspace/model editor. While the reported symptom is that skills are ignored rather than truncated, it is directly in the same feature area and may help trace related model-skill handling code paths.

bug🟣 #22913 Issue #22913
This is the closest skills-related issue I found. It covers skill selection state in the chat input, showing that skills selection/UI behavior has had bugs in nearby components, though it is not the same 30-item cap.
