# Class LittleGhost::Content::Reasoning

Documentation version: Edge

Canonical HTML: https://littleghostai.org/docs/LittleGhost/Content/Reasoning.html

Preserves provider reasoning without forcing every provider into one
representation. A value may carry visible text, a provider signature, opaque
redacted bytes, or provider-specific detail objects.

Redacted bytes are mutually exclusive with text and signatures so they can
round-trip without exposing or changing provider-managed content.
