How to Use

1. Open OpenWebUI and go to Workspace > Tools
2. Install Batch Install Plugins from GitHub from the marketplace
3. Enable this tool for your model/chat
4. Ask the model to install plugins

Interactive Installation Workflow

Each request handles one repository. To mix repositories, send another request after the previous installation completes.

Example Installation Sequence

1. Start with My Collection

   "Install all plugins from Fu-Jie/openwebui-extensions"
   

   Review the confirmation dialog, approve, and the plugins are installed.

2. Add a Community Collection

   "Install all plugins from iChristGit/OpenWebui-Tools"
   

   Add more plugins from a different repository. Already installed plugins are updated seamlessly.

3. Install a Specific Type

   "Install only pipe plugins from Haervwe/open-webui-tools"
   

   Pick specific plugin types from another repository, or exclude certain keywords.

4. Use Your Own Repository

   "Install all plugins from your-username/your-collection"
   

   Works with any public GitHub repository in owner/repo format.

Usage Examples

Each line below is a separate request:

# Install from my default collection
"Install all plugins"

# Add another repository in a new request
"Install all plugins from iChristGit/OpenWebui-Tools"

# Add only tools from a different repository
"Install only tool plugins from Haervwe/open-webui-tools"

# Continue building your setup with another request
"Install only action plugins from Classic298/open-webui-plugins"

# Filter out unwanted plugins
"Install all plugins from Haervwe/open-webui-tools, exclude_keywords=test,deprecated"

# Install from your own public repository
"Install all plugins from your-username/my-plugin-collection"

Popular Public Repositories

The tool works with any public GitHub repository in owner/repo format. Popular starting points include:

• Fu-Jie/openwebui-extensions - My personal collection and the default source
• iChristGit/OpenWebui-Tools - Comprehensive tools and plugins
• Haervwe/open-webui-tools - Utility-focused extensions
• Classic298/open-webui-plugins - Mixed community plugins
• suurt8ll/open_webui_functions - Function-based plugins
• rbb-dev/Open-WebUI-OpenRouter-pipe - OpenRouter pipe integration

To combine repositories, run the tool again with a different repo after the previous installation completes.

Default Repository

When no repository is specified, the tool uses Fu-Jie/openwebui-extensions (my personal collection).

Plugin Detection Rules

Fu-Jie/openwebui-extensions (Strict)

For the default repository, the tool applies stricter filtering:

1. A .py file containing class Tools:, class Filter:, class Pipe:, or class Action:
2. A docstring with title:, description:, and openwebui_id: metadata
3. Filename must not end with _cn

Other Public GitHub Repositories

For other repositories:

1. A .py file containing class Tools:, class Filter:, class Pipe:, or class Action:
2. A docstring with title: and description: fields

Configuration (Valves)

Parameter	Default	Description
SKIP_KEYWORDS	test,verify,example,template,mock	Comma-separated keywords to skip
TIMEOUT	20	Request timeout in seconds

Confirmation Timeout

User confirmation dialogs have a default timeout of 2 minutes (120 seconds), allowing sufficient time for users to:

• Read and review the plugin list
• Make installation decisions
• Handle network delays

Support

If this plugin has been useful, a star on OpenWebUI Extensions is a big motivation for me. Thank you for the support.
