Replace LobeChat with Open WebUI v0.9.5. Has Claude-style Artifacts (split-screen, sandboxed iframe, version cycling for HTML/SVG/JS/ThreeJS/D3), native MCP, native OIDC, RAG with 9 vector DBs, Conduit Android client.

Biggest pain: no first-class LobeChat→OWUI importer (issue #19457). KB must be re-uploaded.

Pocket-ID: standard OAUTH_CLIENT_ID/SECRET/OPENID_PROVIDER_URL envs. Verify email claim + ENABLE_OAUTH_SIGNUP=true.

Plan phases:

  1. Deploy OWUI on free port, OIDC via Pocket-ID
  2. Wire to Bifrost (or existing LiteLLM during transition)
  3. Test Artifacts with Claude
  4. Conversation export script (LobeChat DB → OWUI JSON)
  5. Re-upload KB
  6. Switch chat.nuclide.systems Zoraxy route
  7. Decommission LobeChat container, keep DB 30 days
