Description
Heyo. Just downloaded, so v0.1.39. Ran the setup.sh on uBuntu 26, all good.
[strata] logging output shows 'thinking: x of max 6400 tokens'. I set `"reasoning_budget_tokens": 2048` in the config, but it still thinks up to 6400 tokens, rather than 2048 as set in the config:

"reasoning_budget_tokens": 2048
}
```
Interestingly, the logging also shows `answering: x of max 6400 tokens`, so im not sure where the 6400 is coming from?
Right now, the model just fills itself up thinking then fails to answer.Related on strata.com
