+### Thinking
+
+By default, Frigate turns thinking off for review descriptions, since most models write better descriptions without spending tokens on a reasoning trace. Some models are trained to reason over video, and may follow complex scenes more accurately when allowed to think first. The `enable_thinking` option lets you turn thinking on for review descriptions to evaluate this with your model.
+
+`enable_thinking` only applies to models that expose a per-request thinking toggle with the `ollama` or `llamacpp` providers. For llama.cpp, the model's chat template must use the `enable_thinking` variable. Other models keep their default behavior. With `openai`, use `runtime_options` (for example `reasoning_effort`) to control reasoning instead.
+
+Thinking makes each review description take longer and use more tokens. If responses come back empty, the model may be using its whole output budget on reasoning.
+
+When **Save thumbnails** (`debug_save_thumbnails`) is enabled, the reasoning trace is saved to `reasoning.txt` alongside `prompt.txt` and `response.txt`, so you can see what the model considered before answering. The trace is saved even when the model returns no answer. To compare a saved example with thinking on and off, use `testing-scripts/genai_review_tester.py` in the Frigate repository.

 Different platforms handle notifications differently, some settings changes may be required to get optimal notification delivery.
 
-### Notification TTL
-
-By default, Frigate sends notifications for an active alert with a `ttl` of `immediate`, so the push service either delivers them immediately or drops them. If your device is briefly unreachable (asleep, switching from Wi-Fi to cellular, or on a weak signal), those notifications are lost and you only receive the notification sent when the alert ends, which is always kept for up to an hour.
-
-Setting `ttl` to `reliable` tells the push service to keep retrying these notifications for up to 30 seconds. This makes delivery more reliable, but a notification delivered late will still say an object is detected, even if the object has already left.
