Reasoning Tokens for Thinking Models

Reasoning Tokens is a new feature introduced by OpenRouter that provides insight into the reasoning process of models like DeepSeek R1, with plans to extend support to Gemini Thinking models. By adding include_reasoning: true to API requests, users can access the reasoning steps in the reasoning field of each message, offering transparency in model decision-making. This feature not only allows users to inspect the reasoning but can also enhance complex workflows by injecting reasoning into less advanced models to improve their performance. An example demonstrates using Reasoning Tokens to make a basic model smarter by integrating the reasoning output from a more advanced model, showcasing the potential for evolving use cases in AI model interactions.
