Sounds similar to Qwen3 but the exact opposite: "stopping thinking before a natural termination"

> Thinking Budget. An additional advantage of Thinking Mode Fusion is that, once the model learns to respond in both non-thinking and thinking modes, it naturally develops the ability to handle intermediate cases—generating responses based on incomplete thinking. This capability lays the foundation for implementing budget control over the model’s thinking process. Specifically, when the length of the model’s thinking reaches a user-defined threshold, we manually halt the thinking process and insert the stop-thinking instruction: “Considering the limited time by the user, I have to give the solution based on the thinking directly now.\n</think>.\n\n”.
