Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
reasoning_thinkA

Structured multi-step reasoning tool. Decomposes analysis into sequential thought steps stored in a persistent session trace.

USAGE PATTERN:

  1. Start: { query: "...", level: "basic"|"normal"|"high"|"expert", thought: "your analysis..." }

  2. Continue: { sessionId: "", thought: "next step..." } — level is optional; session level is used

  3. Repeat until status: "completed" — the summary field contains the exact next call to make

IMPORTANT: Pass the returned sessionId on every continuation call. The thought parameter stores YOUR reasoning verbatim — write thorough analysis in each step. Use stepSummary for a 1-sentence conclusion per step — these accumulate in the summary field for navigation.

Levels: basic (1–3 steps, 2K budget), normal (4–8 steps, 8K budget), high (10–15 steps, 32K budget), expert (20–25 steps, 128K budget). Alternatives: runMode="run_to_completion" (batch, basic level only), or observation/hypothesis/evaluation fields (structured). Errors: E_SESSION_NOT_FOUND (expired — start new), E_INVALID_THOUGHT_COUNT (check level ranges).
