### Added
- 🚦 **Human in the loop tool approval.** Where an administrator has turned it on, you can switch a conversation from letting tools run freely to being asked first, so a model that wants to use a tool stops and waits for you to allow or deny it, one call at a time in a saved conversation, with your choice remembered for future conversations and automations, channel replies, and temporary chats unaffected.

- 📶 **Streaming rebuilt from the ground up.** A reply now streams as small pieces of new text instead of resending the whole message so far with every update, so the data sent over a reply grows with its length rather than with its length squared, which on a server with many people chatting at once means far less processor time spent encoding, passing, and decoding those updates, far less load and memory on the shared cache that carries them between instances, and far less work in your browser, which no longer takes in the whole reply again and redraws the parts of it that have not changed on every update, and a reply still in progress is now kept aside on the server, so reopening the conversation after a refresh picks it up where it is rather than showing a blank message, on deployments backed by Redis.

- 🔍 **Smarter chat search.** Searching your chats now finds conversations containing all of your words in any order rather than only the exact phrase you typed, with exact matches still listed first, and the preview snippet points at whichever word it found. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/0800c21c64c64810f24c2ec88cca5e36daebb10e)
- ⌨️ **Model switching from the message box.** Typing "/model" now tells you which model you are on, switching to another by name with "/model" followed by its id, or opening the model picker straight from the slash menu without reaching for the mouse.

- 🧰 **Managing models on more servers.** Administrators can now download, load, and unload models on llama.cpp and LM Studio connections from the manage models dialog, remove them on llama.cpp, and start a download straight from the model picker's search box, alongside the Ollama support that was already there.

- 🙋 **Mentioning people in a channel.** Typing an at sign in a channel now lists that channel's own members first, before everyone else on the server, so the people you are likely to mean are at the top. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/ba885d0026ad3cce70c7cc36d1d6f59775264a12)
- 🗂️ **Recognisable file icons.** The terminal file browser now marks each file with an icon for its type, so code, images, archives, documents, and configuration files can be told apart at a glance instead of sharing one generic page icon.

- 🌲 **Browsing files as a tree.** The terminal file browser now expands folders in place rather than only navigating into them, remembers what you had open, offers a right-click menu, can show hidden files, sorts by size, and expands a folder you hover over while dragging something onto it. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/7dfbdd221ac0f7a839dd049e3e82b6a84c316860)
- 🔬 **Zoom controls on previewed images.** An image opened in the file browser now has zoom in, zoom out, and a reset button showing the current zoom, and pinching to zoom responds more readily.

- 🌲 **Browsing files as a tree.** The terminal file browser now expands folders in place rather than only navigating into them, remembers what you had open, offers a right-click menu, can show hidden files, sorts by size, expands a folder you hover over while dragging something onto it, and moves a whole selection in one go when you drop it.

- 🔬 **Zoom controls on previewed images.** An image opened in the file browser now has zoom in, zoom out, and a reset button showing the current zoom, and pinching, scrolling, and holding a modifier key while scrolling now zoom and pan as they do elsewhere.

- 📢 **Automations that post to a channel.** An automation can now be pointed at a channel instead of a chat, so its scheduled run appears as a message there for everyone to see, chosen from a new destination picker that also covers folders. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/2649e3305c49cb37101c112ae10ffd8beacb5885)
- 🙋‍♂️ **Models that can ask you a question.** A new built-in tool lets a model pause and put up to three multiple-choice questions to you before continuing, with room to type your own answer instead, and the question survives a reload in a saved conversation, so you can come back and answer it later rather than losing the conversation.

- 🧭 **More from the message box.** The slash menu now offers settings and, in a new chat, a toggle for temporary chat, alongside the commands that were already there. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/a5ea732c1e3d0d1f70a7e4b6a20c30c336114784)
- 🪟 **Honest OAuth settings.** When single sign-on settings come from the environment rather than being saved in the application, the admin panel now shows them as read-only with a note naming the setting that controls this, instead of accepting edits that were silently discarded on the next restart. [#28276](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/28276)
- 🔭 **OpenSERP in the search settings.** OpenSERP can now be picked as the web search engine in the admin panel, with a field for its address, rather than only being configurable through the environment. [#27594](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/27594), [#27592](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/27592)
- 🎛️ **Settings for the task model.** Administrators can now set the generation parameters used for background work such as titles, tags, follow-ups, search queries, and conversation summaries, either from the admin panel or through "TASK_MODEL_PARAMS", instead of those requests always using a fixed token limit that could cut a summary short. [#27604](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/27604), [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/f0bfcd40976dfb1e1876f86b39d6a659d894d15e), [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/865c80c1600ecc2e606bef4e90540ce305b4b9de)
- 📄 **Faithful Word document previews.** Word documents now open as proper pages with headers, footers, footnotes, and embedded images intact, and can be zoomed, rather than being flattened into plain formatted text. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/ff7467b4c593f1e775311c088c63340d0cc1e4a2), [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/060648f939447e2a9de390d05221ca896c50eeed)
- 📽️ **Truer PowerPoint previews.** Slide previews now render tables, charts, connectors, gradients, theme colours, bullets, fonts, and text alignment far closer to the original, and the viewer lets you move between slides with the arrow keys or the scroll wheel while the thumbnail strip follows along.

- 🧾 **CSV shape in retrieval.** Turning on "ENABLE_RAG_CSV_SUMMARY" adds a short line naming the row count, data row count, column count, and column names of a CSV file to what the model sees, giving it the shape of the table alongside its contents. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/1b72899f246ba46ab8f7cd6aee2d56ef69217d82)
- 🎚️ **Default interface settings for everyone.** Administrators can now set system-wide defaults for the interface options in Settings, either from the admin panel or through "DEFAULT_INTERFACE_SETTINGS", with each person's own choices still taking precedence and anything left untouched shown as inherited and kept in step with later changes to the defaults.

- 🔠 **Interface scaling throughout.** The UI Scale setting and your browser's own text size now resize the whole interface consistently, including the sidebar, menus, dialogs, and file browser, rather than leaving parts of it fixed.

- 👁️ **Turning off chat previews.** A new setting under Settings and Interface lets you switch off the preview card that appears when you hover a chat in the sidebar, useful for a quieter sidebar, for sharing your screen, or on a slow connection.

- ♿ **Improved UI accessibility.** A closed sidebar is no longer reachable by keyboard or announced by screen readers, the tool call blocks in a response can now be expanded with the keyboard, the buttons that normally appear on hover, such as message actions, file removal, and chat menus, now appear when you reach them with the keyboard as well, whatever you have tabbed to is marked with a clear outline throughout the application, and the rows in the integrations menu now tell a screen reader whether each tool or feature is switched on.
