Command A Reasoning: Control for AI Agents | Cohere
Aug 21, 2025

Summary
This post introduces Command A Reasoning, a system that provides fine-grained control over AI agent behavior and decision-making. It details how agents can be instructed to follow specific reasoning paths, use tools deterministically, and adhere to predefined constraints, thereby enhancing the reliability and predictability of complex AI agent workflows. This system allows for explicit control over agent actions, moving beyond implicit decision-making to a more structured and auditable approach.
