Research direction

The issue does not name a file, test, or entry point. Start by locating where backend requests are constructed and where existing Open WebUI request metadata is added; then trace how user name, user ID, and chat ID are available. Done means the listed headers are included consistently on the relevant backend requests and their behavior is covered by the project's existing request tests.
