This model is using the fixed jinja template from froggeric/Qwen-Fixed-Chat-Templates

Thinking toggle

Drop <|think_on|> or <|think_off|> anywhere in your system or user prompt. The template intercepts the tag, removes it from context so the model never sees it, and flips the mode.

Fast answer, no reasoning:

System: You are a coding assistant. <|think_off|>
User: What's 2+2?

Deep reasoning:

System: You are a coding assistant. <|think_on|>
User: Implement a red-black tree in Rust.

The tag syntax (<|think_on|>, <|think_off|>) uses Qwen's control-token delimiters, so it will never collide with real text. Earlier community templates used /think, which broke legitimate paths like cd /mnt/project/think.

---

I added a similar set of tags for handling the preserve_thinking flag:

• Drop <|think_forget|> or <|think_remember|> anywhere in your system or user prompt to flip the flag.
• The template intercepts the tag, removes it from context so the model never sees it, and flips the mode.
