Key Points
- The post claims that Qwen 3.6 can maintain context within its chain-of-thought (CoT) during reasoning.
- In repeated tests, the model reportedly remembered a chosen number reliably when that number was selected during the reasoning process.
- The writer notes that getting the model to consistently stick to the number can be difficult, even if context retention is strong.
- They specify that enabling this behavior requires using the chat template argument `--chat-template-kwargs '{"preserve_thinking": true}'`.
