# Recursive Thinking

> Use this tool when you need to iteratively refine complex problem solutions through recursive analysis, breaking down tasks into manageable parts to achieve high-confidence results. It solves problems that require in-depth thinking and nuance, such as multi-step decision-making and critical thinking exercises. The tool takes in open-ended questions or tasks, and outputs refined, high-confidence responses after multiple iterations of analysis and insight extraction.

## Description

Implements a session-based recursive thinking approach where agents start with a task, receive focused prompts for analysis, and iteratively refine their responses until reaching a confidence threshold of 85% or higher. Compresses context between iterations by extracting only key insights, reducing token usage by approximately 70% while maintaining solution depth through up to 5 recursion levels.
