REASONING BOOSTS SEARCH RELEVANCE 15-30%
Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter
Reasoning agents work best with simple search tools. Developers should use simple, easy-to-understand, and transparent search systems like grep or basic keyword search. Agents can sift through results, learn, and retry with what they've learned. Asking an agent to explain the intent behind a query helps the agent reason about how to best satisfy the request by forcing it to think about what the user wants.
