+## External packages
+
+In the Tools definition metadata you can specify custom packages. When you click `Save` the line will be parsed and `pip install` will be run on all requirements at once.
+
+Keep in mind that as pip is used in the same process as Open-WebUI, the UI will be completely unresponsive during the installation.
+
+No measures are taken to handle package conflicts with Open-WebUI's requirements. That means that specifying requirements can break OpenWebUI if you're not careful. You might be able to work around this by specifying `open-webui` itself as a requirement.
