# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Ollama reasoning_effort none not propagated or honored

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

These members appear to concern the agent.reasoning_effort setting (including 'none') not being applied for Ollama, affecting the main agent and a background review/curator fork. They include a bug report and fix-oriented pull requests, one of which mentions emitting a top-level reasoning_effort on the chat completions endpoint; its title is truncated.

## TL;DR

- 3 member(s): 0 open issue(s), 1 closed issue(s), 0 open PR(s), 0 merged PR(s), 2 PR(s) closed without merging.
- No fix has been merged to main; one or more PRs were attempted (see below).
- **Recommended:** review the prior/competing PR(s) below. A fix was attempted but not merged; your case may extend or revive that work.

## Maintainer resolution verdict
