Background & analysis
On November 7, 2026, a post on the r/LocalLLaMA subreddit described how the newly released Open WebUI 0.13.0 can be used together with Open Terminal 0.17.2 to drive a virtual desktop machine. According to the post, the QFN 3.8 model, loaded inside this setup, was able to draw a dog by itself in MS Paint on the virtual machine, generating the image by operating the mouse coordinates. The author contrasted this with earlier approaches that relied on writing Python code to produce SVG images, arguing that VM-level control makes that kind of workaround unnecessary. The post also mentions that the whole flow depends on the desktop control features added in Open WebUI 0.13.0, which let the model interact with the Open Terminal repository at version 0.17.2 running a virtual desktop environment. At this stage, the information comes from a single Reddit post; there is no additional follow-up, official documentation, or third-party verification yet.
