Extended Thinking​

Anthropic models offer an "Extended Thinking" feature, designed to give them enhanced reasoning capabilities for complex tasks. This feature allows the model to output its step-by-step thought process before delivering a final answer, providing transparency and enabling more thorough analysis for challenging prompts.

When extended thinking is in Caret, the model generates thinking content blocks that detail its internal reasoning. These insights are then incorporated into its final response. Caret users can leverage this by checking the Enable Extended Thinking box below the model selection menu after selecting a Claude Model from any provider.

Key Aspects of Extended Thinking:

  • Supported Models: This feature is available for select models, including Claude Opus 4, Claude Sonnet 4.5, and Claude Sonnet 3.7.
  • Summarized Thinking (Claude 4): For Claude 4 and 4.5 models, the API returns a summary of the full thinking process to balance insight with efficiency and prevent misuse. You are billed for the full thinking tokens, not just the summary.
  • Streaming: Extended thinking responses, including the thinking blocks, can be streamed.
  • Tool Use & Prompt Caching: Extended thinking interacts with tool use (requiring thinking blocks to be passed back) and prompt caching (with specific behaviors around cache invalidation and context).

For comprehensive details on how extended thinking works, including API examples, interaction with tool use, prompt caching, and pricing, please refer to the official Anthropic documentation on Extended Thinking.

Tips and Notes​

  • Prompt Caching: Claude 3 models support prompt caching, which can significantly reduce costs and latency for repeated prompts.
  • Context Window: Claude models have large context windows (200,000 tokens), allowing you to include a significant amount of code and context in your prompts.
  • Pricing: Refer to the Anthropic Pricing page for the latest pricing information.
  • Rate Limits: Anthropic has strict rate limits based on usage tiers. If you're repeatedly hitting rate limits, consider contacting Anthropic sales or accessing Claude through a different provider like OpenRouter or Requesty.
