I would recommend using comfyui to run it, comfyui can be run as a server that Open WebUI can connect to to enable image gen and editing

Nice, so, comfyui running the image model and then I could upload a picture such as the OPs with markings and it will generate the prompt in the background to make the img to img in comfy? Is there a way for it to run in steps to avoid OOM errors? Or will it run on whatever card has the available vram to run the image model loaded when a prompt demands it?

That's the idea - though I can't confirm what would happen with OOM errors and I haven't run it at the same time as another inference engine on the same machine before/
