Definition
The cognitive framework an AI Agent uses to break a massive, ambiguous goal into a logical sequence of actionable sub-tasks before executing them.
Explain Like I'm New
Before you build a house, you need a blueprint. An Agent uses techniques like ReAct (Reason + Act) to think: 'Step 1: Search the web. Step 2: Read the results. Step 3: Write the report'.
Real World Example
The ReAct framework. The Agent's internal monologue looks like: THOUGHT: I need to find the CEO of Apple. ACTION: WebSearch('Apple CEO'). OBSERVATION: Tim Cook is the CEO. THOUGHT: I have the answer. ACTION: Reply to user.
Common Use Cases
