Adds `claude_agent_pipe_sandboxed.py`, a self-contained OpenWebUI pipe that shells `claude --output-format stream-json` inside an open-webui/ open-terminal container instead of running the Claude Agent SDK in-process. Each OWUI user gets a dedicated Linux account (mapped via the X-User-Id header) with a per-chat workspace directory that persists across turns and whose generated PNG/PDF/CSV artifacts are auto-inlined into the chat. Scaffolding under `sandbox/`: - Dockerfile extending ghcr.io/open-webui/open-terminal with Claude Code pre-installed system-wide (inherited by every provisioned user) - docker-compose.yml + README covering standalone deployment - Async HTTP client + stream-json runner for programmatic use `sync_pipe.py` pushes the pipe to a running OWUI via the admin functions API so iteration doesn't require manual repaste.

OpenWebUI Claude Code Pipe
Run Claude Code's agent loop from inside Open WebUI chats, via the Claude Agent SDK.
This is an Open WebUI Pipe that exposes Claude Code as a selectable model. Each chat gets its own isolated workspace directory; agent turns within the same chat resume the same Claude Code session, so context (files, prior tool calls) carries forward.
Features
- Full Claude Code agent loop — Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Glob, Grep, WebSearch, WebFetch (configurable allowlist)
- Per-chat workspaces — each
chat_idgets a sandboxed working directory that persists across turns - Dual auth — bring your own Anthropic API key (pay-per-token) or a Claude Pro/Max OAuth token (bills against your subscription)
- Streaming UI — tool calls render inline with previews; generated images/PDFs/CSVs surface as artifacts in the chat
- Configurable valves — model, permission mode, tool allowlist, max turns, workspace root
Requirements
- Open WebUI (any recent version with the Pipes/Functions framework)
- Python deps (auto-installed by Open WebUI from the file header):
claude-agent-sdk>=0.1.60anthropic>=0.40.0
- The
claudeCLI must be available on the host running Open WebUI's Python backend (the SDK shells out to it). Install vianpm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code.
Installation
- In Open WebUI, go to Workspace → Functions → + (or Admin Panel → Functions).
- Paste the contents of
claude_agent_pipe.pyinto the editor. - Save and enable the function.
- Open the function's Valves and configure auth (one of):
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY— standard pay-per-token billingCLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN— generate on a machine with a browser viaclaude setup-token; bills against your Pro/Max/Team subscription
- A new model named Claude Code will appear in the model picker.
Configuration (Valves)
| Valve | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY |
(env) | Anthropic API key. Falls back to the backend's env var. |
CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN |
(empty) | Claude subscription OAuth token. Takes priority over the API key when set. |
MODEL |
claude-haiku-4-5 |
Claude model ID (e.g. claude-haiku-4-5, claude-sonnet-4-6, claude-opus-4-7). |
PERMISSION_MODE |
bypassPermissions |
default, acceptEdits, bypassPermissions, plan, or dontAsk. |
ALLOWED_TOOLS |
Read,Write,Edit,Bash,Glob,Grep,WebSearch,WebFetch |
Comma-separated tools auto-approved without prompting. |
WORKDIR_ROOT |
/tmp/claude-agent-pipe |
Root directory for per-chat workspaces. |
MAX_TURNS |
30 |
Max agent turns per user message. 0 disables the cap. |
Auth notes
When both auth methods are present, the OAuth token wins and the API key is unset before invoking the SDK so it can't override.
Per Anthropic's terms: a Claude subscription is for personal use — don't re-offer subscription auth to other end users through a shared Open WebUI deployment. For multi-user setups, use API keys.
