📄 Description

Summary

RELATED / FIXES: https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/discussions/20294

When a filter function modifies the model in its inlet hook to route messages to a different model, the database now correctly stores the updated model ID. Filters can also emit a chat:model event to update the UI in real-time.

Problem

The model_id variable was captured at the start of the chat_completion function, but the database save was using this pre-captured value instead of the potentially-modified value from form_data after inlet filters run.

Before:

User selects Model A
Inlet filter changes model to Model B
Model B processes the message
Database stores model: Model A (wrong)
UI shows Model A

After this feature introduction:

User selects Model A
Inlet filter changes model to Model B
Model B processes the message
Database stores model: Model B (correct)
Filter emits chat:model event, UI shows Model B

Use Case: Model Routing in Filters

Filter authors can now implement model routing that persists correctly:

"""
title: Model Router Test Filter
author: Test
version: 0.2.0
description: Routes to gpt-5.2 when "this is a hard task" is in the message
"""

from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from typing import Optional


class Filter:
    class Valves(BaseModel):
        priority: int = Field(default=0, description="Filter priority")
        target_model: str = Field(
            default="gpt-5.2", description="Model to route hard tasks to"
        )

    def __init__(self):
        self.valves = self.Valves()

    async def inlet(
        self, body: dict, __event_emitter__, __user__: Optional[dict] = None
    ) -> dict:
        # Get the last user message
        messages = body.get("messages", [])
        if not messages:
            return body

        last_message = messages[-1].get("content", "")

        # Check for trigger phrase (case-insensitive)
        if "this is a hard task" in last_message.lower():
            new_model = self.valves.target_model
            print(f"[Model Router] Routing to {new_model}")
            body["model"] = new_model

            # Emit event to update frontend UI with new model
            await __event_emitter__(
                {
                    "type": "chat:model",
                    "data": {"model": new_model},
                }
            )

        return body

The selected model will now be correctly displayed in the chat UI after the response.
