Strengths
Handles complex problems through step-by-step reasoning, making it effective for tasks requiring deliberate analysis and multi-step logic.
Best for
Workloads that benefit from reasoning overhead — mathematical problem-solving, code debugging, structured analysis, and other tasks where tracing through the reasoning process matters.
Limitations
Reasoning adds latency and token consumption compared to the standard Instruct variant, so it trades speed and efficiency for reasoning depth.
