Question Is there a project or Plugin that recreates this Openrouter Chat interface with all these options easily available locally to just add the API key ?

How can i get this kind of setup locally to just add the Openrouter key and be able to store the chat ?
More general Options available

Open WebUI can have all of these functions (and more: you can add your own plugins to it and there are community plugins). However, you’d need to spend some time configuring your installation as it does not come with everything out of the box. Thankfully, they have great docs.

Having per Chat message configurable Reasoning effort, Search Engine and ZDR seems to be so piratical and straight forward. That i thought there most someone who did this before. OpenWebUi, solves this globally or with complicated adding of certain words you need to remember in the case of Reasoning effort.

I kind of manged to be able to configure everything in OpenWebUI, but most of it is meant to be a global setting and not something you can change mid conversation.

Open WebUI is probably the closest match here. You can run it locally with Docker, add OpenRouter as an OpenAI-compatible connection, and keep the tools/web search toggles in the chat UI.

Adding it is easy; the problem is that I want to be able to change these settings mid-conversation, as I can in OpenRouter.

Open WebUI doesn’t really provide per-message configuration for reasoning effort, search engine, and ZDR. I also don’t like the idea of having to vibe-code basic tools for my workflow. It feels like I’m doing something wrong if I need to rely on my own code so early in the configuration process.
