Sounds like you made most of these changes upstream? What about the background chats and the chat tree overview, are either of them in Open WebUI, or are they also custom to PolyChat? I run OWUI locally and am interested in those features for selfish reasons. If for some reason your multi-model idea doesn’t pan out, I’d love to see it merged upstream, too. Thanks for your contributions!

(Another annoying thing about OWUI is getting logged out every time the image upgrades… is that something else you’ve looked at?)

Background chats are new in v5 of Open WebUI, so you can use it too. Overview has been there also, but it's kind hidden in the hamburger menu.

The upgrade/logout issue you're facing is likely due to not setting WEBUI_SECRET_KEY outside of your docker container. This causes all previous cookies to be unreadable as a new key will get generated by start.sh and won't decrypt the old cookies.
