Publishing a function on openwebui.com fails every time with a 503 from content moderation.

What happens

Creating a post at https://openwebui.com/post?type=function and clicking Create sends
POST https://api.openwebui.com/api/v1/posts/create, which returns:

HTTP 503
{"detail":"Content moderation is temporarily unavailable. Please try again."}

The form stays on the page; nothing is created.

Details

  • Account: @apimaster
  • Post type: function (a manifold pipe, about 9.5k characters of Python, plus a 2k-character Markdown description)
  • Attempts: 2026-09-29 around 05:00 UTC (twice) and 2026-09-30 around 03:15 UTC. Same response each time.
  • reCAPTCHA loads and passes (the recaptcha/api2/clr request returns 200), so the request does reach your API.

Question

Is the moderation service down, or is something in the post itself making it fail? If it's the
content, a hint about what to change would help. The function's source is public here, so you can
see exactly what we're submitting:

Thanks!
