 **Buffer of Thoughts (BoT)** is a thought-augmented reasoning framework introduced by Yang et al. (NeurIPS 2024 Spotlight) that maintains a **meta-buffer** — a library of reusable high-level thought templates distilled from past problem-solving — which are retrieved and instantiated for new tasks. BoT achieves state-of-the-art reasoning accuracy while requiring only 12% of the computational cost of multi-query methods like Tree of Thoughts. **Buffer of Thoughts (BoT)** is a thought-augmented reasoning framework introduced by Yang et al.
