Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for all existing open AND closed issues and discussions for similar requests. I have found none that is comparable to my request.

Verify Feature Scope

  • I have read through and understood the scope definition for feature requests in the Issues section. I believe my feature request meets the definition and belongs in the Issues section instead of the Discussions.

Problem Description

I am frustrated that AI has the native ability to call internal tools such as "skills" to change behavior/prompts; but doesn't seem to have the ability to do that in a recursive manner, or some psuedo multi-agent architecture.

Desired Solution you'd like

I want the AI to have a built-in tool that enables it see the other models available, then decide which ones to call, and provide them prompts. This can nearly completely solve the multi agent layering approach that so many people have been trying to develop in industry.

Alternatives Considered

i am attempting to setup a pipeline that would do this; but ultimately, its going to be a single model pipeline (not a manifold), that then calls the openwebui API to run new models as if it were a normal chat, then try to aggregate all of the information and figure out the valving situation.

Additional Context

it would be nice if it was just built in.
