# Xiaomi MiMo Thinking Mode

> Toggle thinking mode with the `use_thinking` flag.

Toggle thinking mode with the `use_thinking` flag. `use_thinking=True` makes the model emit `reasoning_content` before its answer; `use_thinking=False` turns it off for a faster, cheaper response. Leaving it unset (None) uses the model default.

```python thinking_mode.py theme={null}
