On [third-party providers](/docs/en/third-party-integrations), Claude Code omits the `thinking` parameter instead, and adaptive-reasoning models may still think. Other values apply only with a [fixed thinking budget](#adaptive-reasoning-and-fixed-thinking-budgets) |

699699You can't turn thinking off on Opus 5.5, Sonnet 5.5, or the Fable models. The session toggle and the `/config` row show `Thinking can't be turned off` for these models instead of offering the switch, and a saved `alwaysThinkingEnabled: false` or `MAX_THINKING_TOKENS=0` has no effect there. On these models, the model decides per step how much to think based on the effort level. The saved setting applies again when you switch to a model that accepts it.
