Where is the code?

Deploy (example)

hayhooks pipeline deploy-files -n agent_events examples/pipeline_wrappers/open_webui_agent_events

Run

  • OpenAI-compatible chat (events stream to Open WebUI):
curl -X POST http://localhost:1416/v1/chat/completions \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "model": "agent_events",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Tell me about machine learning"}]
  }'

!!! tip "Working with Events" - Use helpers from hayhooks.open_webui: create_status_event, create_message_event, create_replace_event, create_source_event, create_notification_event, create_details_tag - Intercept tool calls via on_tool_call_start/on_tool_call_end with streaming_generator/async_streaming_generator - For recommended Open WebUI settings, see the Open WebUI Integration guide
