Qwen3.5 no-think mode needs custom template
This Reddit help thread points to Qwen's workaround for turning off Qwen3.5 thinking mode: use Qwen's thinking toggle where supported, or swap in a custom template for llama.cpp. The non-thinking preset also favors lower-entropy sampling for faster local chat.
Runtime plumbing matters more here than model quality. Qwen's docs point to a custom llama.cpp template as the practical way to disable thinking, and the post's settings line up with that recipe. For local users, turning thinking off trims latency and avoids long reasoning traces when they just want direct answers, though the toggle still varies across frameworks.
