Hermes introduces a family of harnesses that give models control over how they allocate and reuse context windows during inference, a capability termed contextual reasoning. The accompanying Hermes‑Learn framework trains models in two stages to develop these decision‑making skills, enabling them to scale performance with additional compute at test time. Experiments show that while large models naturally benefit, smaller open‑source models can close the performance gap through this training, with gains generalizing across benchmarks, extrapolating beyond trained compute, and transferring to other scaling methods.

The paper surveys efficient reasoning in large language models, contrasting fast intuitive (System 1) and slow deep (System 2) reasoning. It analyzes why System 2 is computationally costly yet more accurate, and why System 1 is efficient but less effective. The survey covers causes of inefficiency, patterns of reasoning behavior, and potential solutions to balance performance and computational budgets, offering actionable insights and an open‑source repository for ongoing research.

arXiv:2607. 06160v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Synthesizing long-context supervised fine-tuning (SFT) data is a scalable way to enhance the long-context understanding of large language models (LLMs), yet existing approaches share three limitations: narrow task coverage, insufficient instruction difficulty, and a lack of faithfulness supervision.
