Open WebUI enforces the image generation setting on the legacy chat path and adds OpenSerp as a search provider in the UI, alongside fixes to avatar resolution and checkbox alignment.

Open WebUI's legacy chat feature path now respects the image generation flag. When image generation is disabled in admin settings, the feature is enforced and related active feature pills are hidden, fixing an oversight where the flag was ignored on that path [1].

OpenSerp is now available as a provider in the UI, expanding the search provider options for users [2]. In addition, owner avatars now resolve against the API base URL with a fallback, addressing incorrect avatar paths in some deployments [3].

Two UI refinements landed: capability checkboxes in the model editor are placed directly before their labels, improving alignment and clarity [4], and the same fix is covered by a duplicate PR [5].
