Image editing broken in v0.8.2-rc3 with GPT-Image-1.5 model

[sidanaabhi]

What happened?

In the latest version of LibreChat, attempting to edit a previously generated image using the GPT-Image-1.5 model fails. Instead of editing the image, the assistant responds with:

"I don't have access to the previously generated image for direct editing. Please upload the cat image you want to modify, and I'll add a small ball to it for you!"

Additionally, the backend returns a 404 Resource Not Found error when attempting the edit operation.

The assistant should be able to reference and edit a previously generated image within the same conversation, as it did in v0.8.2-rc3

Actual Behavior

Image editing fails silently from the user's perspective with the above message.
Backend logs show a 404 Resource Not Found error.
Image generation works correctly; only editing is broken.

Version Information

v0.8.3-rc1

Steps to Reproduce

Configure IMAGE_GEN_OAI_* environment variables (see configuration below).
Generate an image using the GPT-Image-1.5 model.
In the same conversation, ask the assistant to modify the generated image (e.g., "Add a ball to this image").
Observe the error response and backend 404 error.

@danny-avila I tested with dev branch and still see 404 error for the GPT-Image-1.5. Also it shouldn't show image edited.

something is wrong with your configuration, this error is coming as a result of the network request.
