Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/8498

I have read and followed all the instructions provided in the README.md.
I am on the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
I have included the browser console logs.
I have included the Docker container logs.
I have provided the exact steps to reproduce the bug in the "Steps to Reproduce" section below.

Expected Behavior:

Filters should have allowed to work with /api/chat/completions currently they only seem partially supported.

Actual Behavior:

Only the inlet method gets called, but not the outlet. This was in the context of monitoring tool that I am using to track and control usage: https://github.com/VariantConst/OpenWebUI-Monitor/issues/23

Description

The filter code in question is https://github.com/VariantConst/OpenWebUI-Monitor/blob/main/resources/functions/openwebui_monitor_invisible.py

Adding logs and confirmed that that outlet only gets called when using the chat interface on the web, but not via api.
