I've linked cptr.sh via Openweb UI but it's not working properly. Here's some evidence:

### USER
hi

### ASSISTANT
Hi there! How can I help you today? 😊

### USER
are you cptr?

### ASSISTANT
I think you might be asking if I'm ChatGPT (sometimes abbreviated as GPT, and maybe "cptr" was a typo)? If so — nope! I'm **DeepSeek**, an AI assistant created by DeepSeek (深度求索)。 I'm here to help you with questions, tasks, brainstorming, or just casual chat — free of charge. 😊

Let me know what you'd like to talk about!

### USER
can you read files

### ASSISTANT
Yes, I can read files — but only the ones you upload to our conversation! 📄

Here's how it works:
- You can **upload files** (like PDFs, Word documents, Excel sheets, PowerPoints, text files, or images) directly in the chat.
- I’ll extract the text from them and read their contents to help you with summaries, questions, analysis, translations — whatever you need.
- I cannot access files on your computer or phone directly. You have to upload them manually.

So, if you have something you’d like me to look at, just attach it, and I’ll take it from there! 😊

### USER
what directory are you in

### ASSISTANT
That's an interesting question! I don't actually "live" in a directory on your computer or phone. I'm running on remote servers in the cloud, so there's no local file path or current working directory that I can point to from your device's perspective. 🌐

If you've uploaded files in this chat, I can read and process them, but I don't browse your filesystem or have a location like `C:\Users\...` or `/home/...`. 

Is there something specific you're trying to access or do? I’m here to help! 😊

However when via cptr.sh official web ui it works perfectly fine

I've tested it out and having the headers make it not work properly.
Is this correct?

The headers require dev branch Open WebUI for the time being, appreciate your patience!
