📜 Open-WebUI Filters Changelog

This is a Changelog for the Open-WebUI filters that I have developed.

OpenStreetMap Tool

1.0.0

• Breaking change: Nominatim URL must now be set to the root domain. The model will warn you about this.
• Caching: Almost all data that the tool fetches is now cached in a JSON file (`/tmp/osm.json`). This reduces load on public OSM services.
• Future updates will allow more control over cache behavior.
• The only thing that is not cached at all is the Overpass Turbo search, that actually finds POIs.
• Handling of unnamed points of interest: many smaller POIs like neighborhood playgrounds do not have names. The tool will now look up addresses for theses POIs using Nominatim.
• Citations: The tool will now send citations when the indicators setting is turned on. The citation contains the results of the search given to the LLM.

0.9.0

• Integrate OpenRouteService to allow calculation of more accurate distances based on the distance of travel rather than "as the crow flies" distance.
• If OpenRouteService is not enabled, the original method will be used for calculating distance.
• ORS is not enabled by default.
• Properly extract amenity type of leisure locations (playgrounds, parks, etc) in search results.

0.8.0

• Added ability to find specific stores and businesses near coordinates. Helps LLM answer questions about arbitrary businesses that it might not find with the pre-defined search functions.
• Pull shop type from Nominatim results when class=shop. Improves accuracy of searching for specific places by telling LLM the type of shop.

0.7.0

• Emit event to web UI, showing what the tool is doing.
• This can be toggled, as a valve setting (not a user valve).

0.6.3

• Add tool function for resolving GPS coordinates to address.
• Improve handling of questions like "Where is X near me?"
• Add basic logging (will be toggleable in a future version).

0.6.2

• Override "doityourself" store to "hardware".

0.6.1

• Small adjustment to single location result instructions.

0.6.0

• Dramatically improved single location lookup (e.g. asking "where is Landmark/City?")
• Add a catch-all handler that the model can pick if the user wants to search for something not added to the tool. The function will force the LLM to tell the user what the OSM tool can find.
• Added more findable POIs: Hardware stores/home improvement centers, electrical and lighting stores, consumer electronics stores, and healthcare (doctors' offices, hospitals, health stores).

0.5.0

• Support Way results. This makes searching much more accurate and useful. Many map features are marked as "ways" (shapes on the map) rather than specific points.
• Drop support for "secondary results," and instead return Ways that have enough information to be useful.

0.4.0

• Complete rewrite of search result handling to prevent incorrect OSM map links being generated, and bad info given.
• New setting: Instruction Oriented Interpretation. Controls the result interpretation instructions given to the LLM. Should help certain models (Hermes Llama 3.1) give more consistent results.
• The Instruction Oriented Interpretation setting is also a user valve that can be controlled on a per-chat basis.
• Added ability to search for: public transit, schools/universities, libraries, bike rental locations, car rental locations.

0.3.0

• Add search for alcohol and cannabis/smart shops.
• Increase hotel search radius to 10km.

0.2.5

• Better accuracy in turn by turn conversations: model encouraged to specify the name of the city and country when searching, so it's less likely to report results from a different country.

0.2.4

• Actually make use of the limit parameter when searching Nominatim.

0.2.3

• Allow leisure tags in nominatim fallback results.

0.2.1

• Only print secondary results if they exist.
• Remove extraneous print logging.

0.2.0

• Include Ways as secondary information for improved search results.
• Added searching for swimming and recreational areas.
