NoTrack Coder 2.9.27 — think harder with /ultrathink
NoTrack Coder 2.9.27 adds slash commands — quick / shortcuts you type right in the chat — and a new one, /ultrathink, that brings a more capable model to your hardest questions.
Type / at the start of a message and you get a handful of commands that steer the chat without leaving the keyboard. The headline this release is /ultrathink.
/ultrathink — more reasoning, on demand
Some questions deserve more thinking than others. Start your message with /ultrathink and that one request is handled by a more capable, more effective model — the one to reach for when a task needs careful reasoning rather than a quick answer.
Reach for it when a problem is genuinely hard:
/ultrathink why does this race condition only show up under load?/ultrathink design a migration plan from the old schema to the new one/ultrathink review this module and find the subtle correctness bug
It applies to the message you prefix — the next message goes back to normal. Everyday chatting doesn't need it; keep working as usual and bring in /ultrathink for the problems worth the extra depth.

Frequently asked questions
What is /ultrathink?
A slash command for harder questions. Start a message with /ultrathink and that request is handled by a more capable, more effective model, built for tasks that need more reasoning. Everything else in the chat works exactly as before.
When should I use /ultrathink?
When a problem is genuinely hard — a tricky bug, a big refactor, an architecture decision, a hard algorithm — anywhere extra reasoning pays off. For routine messages you don't need it, so you keep the lighter, faster experience the rest of the time.
