> Okay, the user wants to find the latest version of Open WebUI. Let me see. First, I should check if there's any internal knowledge base that has this info. But the user specifically said to use the internet, so maybe I should go with the search_web function. > > Wait, the tools provided include search_web, which is for searching the public web. So I need to call search_web with the query "latest version of open webui". That should give the latest results. Let me make sure the parameters are correct. The required parameter is query, and count is optional, defaulting to 5. The user didn't specify how many results, so 5 is fine. > > I should call search_web with query "latest version of open webui". That's the right approach here.Tool Executed

> Okay, let me tackle this query. The user is asking for the latest version of Open WebUI. I need to check the provided context from the search results. > > First, looking at the first search result (source id 1), it mentions "Releases" and the latest version. The snippet says, "latest on X, save key findings to a note, and generate an infographic... This release includes dependency version bumps..." But it doesn't specify the exact version number. However, the title says "Releases" which is the GitHub releases page. Typically, the latest version would be there, but the snippet doesn't state the version number. > > The second result (source id 2) from the Open WebUI home page talks about using image tags like :main for the latest version. The snippet mentions "always run the latest version of Open WebUI, you can use the :main, :cuda, or :ollama image tags". So the :main tag is for the latest version, but again, no specific version number. > > The third result (source id 3) from the GitHub repo says "Removed version synatax as its no longer needed per Docker Docs. 2 years ago..." which might indicate that the versioning system changed, but it's from two years ago, so not current. > > Wait, the first search result is the releases page. If I visit the actual releases page (the link is https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/releases), the latest version would be listed there. But the provided snippet doesn't give the version. However, in the user's context, source 1 is the first search result. The user's context shows the first source's id as 1, which is the releases page. But the snippet doesn't have the version number. Hmm. Maybe in the actual page, the latest version is there, but in the provided context, it's not specified. > > The problem is that the provided context in the user's message doesn't have the exact version number. The tool response from the search_web function gives three results, but none of the snippets mention the specific version number. The first result's link is to the releases page, which usually lists versions, but the snippet here doesn't include the version. The user's context for the first source (id=1) has the same snippet as the tool response. So the answer would have to state that the latest version can be found on the releases page, and the :main tag is for the latest. But the user might be looking for the specific version number, which isn't in the context. > > Wait, the user's original context had three sources with ids 1,2,3. The assistant then called search_web, which returned three results. The user is now providing the tool response. Now, the assistant needs to answer based on the tool response. The problem is that in the tool response's search results, the snippets don't include the exact version number. The first result's title is "Releases · open-webui/open-webui", which is the page where versions are listed. The second mentions using the :main tag for the latest. The third is older. > > Since the exact version number isn't in the provided context, the assistant should inform the user that the latest version can be found on the releases page (source 1) and that using the :main tag gets the latest (source 2). Since the context doesn't have the version number, the answer should state that the latest version isn't explicitly stated here but can be checked via the links provided. The citations would be [1] and [2] since those sources have id attributes. > > Wait, but the user's instruction says: "Only include inline citations using [id] (e.g., [1], [2]) when the <source> tag with id attribute is present in the context." In the provided context, the sources have id=1,2,3. So the response can cite them as [1], [2], [3] if the information comes from those sources. However, in the tool response, the first result's title matches the source 1 in the context. So the answer would use the context sources. The assistant should refer to source 1 and 2 as the references. > > The user is asking for the latest version. The correct answer would be that the latest version is on the GitHub releases page (source 1), and the :main tag is the latest version for Docker (source 2). Since the context doesn't specify the version number, but the user can check the releases page, the answer should guide them there, citing [1] and [2].USER #
what is the latest version number?

Thought for 7 seconds
> Okay, let me try to figure out the latest version number for Open WebUI. The user asked for it after the previous response mentioned the GitHub releases page and Docker image tags. > > First, I need to check if the previous answer provided the version number. Looking back, the user was told that the latest version is on the GitHub releases page, but the specific number wasn't given. The snippets mentioned "latest on X" and "current codebase includes components licensed under the Open WebUI", but no version number. > > So, the user now wants the exact version number. The assistant's response in the first message didn't have it, so the next step is to look up the current version. The previous response also said to check the GitHub releases page, which is the right place. > > I should use the search_web function to get the latest version. The user's query is "latest version of open webui". The search results might have the version number. Let me call search_web with that query. > > Wait, the user might have provided some context in the previous message. Let me check. The first tool call was to search_web, and the response had some links. The first result is the GitHub releases page. If I can get the content of that page, maybe the version number is there. But in the first response, the user was told to check the releases page, but the actual version wasn't found. So the next step is to fetch the URL from the first result. > > Looking at the first result's link: https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/releases. The assistant should fetch that URL to get the latest version. So, using the fetch_url function on that link would retrieve the page content. Then, the version number can be extracted from there. > > So, the next step is to call fetch_url with the URL "https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/releases" to get the latest version.Tool Executed

Actually, the order in the text is from v0.6.40 (25 Nov) then v0.6.39 (25 Nov) but that doesn't make sense. The dates are the same but the versions are decreasing.

Summary of Action Items #
| Version | Must-Do Action | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| v0.6.40 | Update to fix user listing performance | ⚠️ High (if using PostgreSQL) |
| v0.6.39 | Migrate Docling config (JSON + API key) | ⚠️ High (if using Docling) |
| v0.6.37 | Enable SSO-only mode (if required) | 🔧 Medium-High |
| All | Review channel/user management updates | 🔧 Medium |
💡 Pro Tip: For v0.6.39+, test group-sharing policies and Docling config before deployment. The v0.6.40 fix is critical for large-scale admin workloads.
For full details, refer to the release notes for each version. Let me know if you need help with the Docling migration or configuration! 🛠️
