Meta-Reasoning

Your LLM doesn't think. We make sure of it.

What it does

Meta-Reasoning is an SDK for governing how LLMs reason. Instead of treating models as agents, it externalizes cognition into a controllable architecture: observe reasoning structure, mutate it with constraints, and record trajectories in an epistemic ledger. Enable debugging, replay, benchmarking, and CI/CD for reasoning. Make LLM behavior testable, deterministic, and governed. Already available on 🦞OpenClaw, 🟠ClaudeCode and 🤖Codex!

    AutoThink – Boosts local LLM performance with adaptive reasoning2025 · ▲397

    I built AutoThink, a technique that makes local LLMs reason more efficiently by adaptively allocating computational resources based on query complexity. The core idea: instead of giving every query the same "thinking time," classify queries as HIGH or LOW complexity and allocate thinking tokens accordingly. Complex reasoning gets 70-90% of tokens, simple queries get 20-40%. I also implemented steering vectors derived from Pivotal Token Search (originally from Microsoft's Phi-4 paper) that guide the model's reasoning patterns during generation. These vectors encourage behaviors like numerical…

    Steiner – An open-source reasoning model inspired by OpenAI o12024 · medium.com · ▲83

    Steiner is a series of reasoning models trained on synthetic data using reinforcement learning. These models can explore multiple reasoning paths in an autoregressive manner during inference and autonomously verify or backtrack when necessary, enabling a linear traversal of the implicit search tree.

    A tiny reasoning layer that steadies LLM outputs (MIT; +22.4% accuracy)2025 · github.com · ▲6

    We kept shipping “simple” LLM features that were fluent-but-wrong. After too many postmortems we wrote down the failure patterns and added a small reasoning layer in front of the model. It’s model-agnostic, sits beside your existing stack, and you can implement it from a single PDF (MIT). What’s inside the PDF A problem map of 16 failure modes we kept hitting in real systems (OCR/layout drift, table-to-question mismatches, embedding≠meaning, pre-deploy collapse, etc.). Four lightweight gates you can add today: Knowledge-boundary canaries (empty/adversarial/known-fact probes).…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

    With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
