📄 Description

Pull Request Checklist

The description of the tool, which the llm uses to decide if it needs to call it, it's currently the second line of the docstring. It's not very intuitive nor it's documented anywhere. Moreover, if the tool is a bit complex is cumbersome to put everything in a single line.

With this change, the description is considered to be everything before the first :param, or the whole docstring if there is none.

Before submitting, make sure you've checked the following:

  • Target branch: Please verify that the pull request targets the dev branch.
  • Description: Provide a concise description of the changes made in this pull request.
  • Changelog: Ensure a changelog entry following the format of Keep a Changelog is added at the bottom of the PR description.
  • Documentation: Have you updated relevant documentation Open WebUI Docs, or other documentation sources?
  • Dependencies: Are there any new dependencies? Have you updated the dependency versions in the documentation?
  • Testing: Have you written and run sufficient tests for validating the changes?
  • Code review: Have you performed a self-review of your code, addressing any coding standard issues and ensuring adherence to the project's coding standards?
  • Prefix: To cleary categorize this pull request, prefix the pull request title, using one of the following:
    • BREAKING CHANGE: Significant changes that may affect compatibility
    • build: Changes that affect the build system or external dependencies
    • ci: Changes to our continuous integration processes or workflows
    • chore: Refactor, cleanup, or other non-functional code changes
    • docs: Documentation update or addition
    • feat: Introduces a new feature or enhancement to the codebase
    • fix: Bug fix or error correction
    • i18n: Internationalization or localization changes
    • perf: Performance improvement
    • refactor: Code restructuring for better maintainability, readability, or scalability
    • style: Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc.)
    • test: Adding missing tests or correcting existing tests
    • WIP: Work in progress, a temporary label for incomplete or ongoing work
