Think Harder Ultrathink
2. Ask Claude to make a plan for how to approach a specific problem. We recommend using the word "think" to trigger extended thinking mode, which gives Claude additional computation time to evaluate alternatives more thoroughly. These specific phrases are mapped directly to increasing levels of thinking budget in the system: "think" < "think hard" < "think harder" < "ultrathink". Each level allocates progressively more thinking budget for Claude to use. 1. If the results of this step seem reasonable, you can have Claude create a document or a GitHub issue with its plan so that you can spot this spot if the implementation (step 3) isn’t what you want. Think Think hard Think harder Ultrathink
A four-panel expanding-brain meme escalates from “Think” to “Ultrathink,” alongside instructions about asking Claude to use progressively larger thinking budgets. The joke is that a simple prompt-engineering recommendation is presented as an increasingly powerful brain evolution, making “Ultrathink” the exaggerated final form. It is used as a reaction to overthinking, escalating effort, or invoking an AI’s deepest reasoning mode.
