They have access to paper, the model output, that is what reasoning models use to keep track of the chain of thought. When I asked Copilot what kind of external resources it can use, it also claimed that it has access to some scratchpad memory, which might or might not be true, did not try to verify that.

Also I am not asking to learn it in one day, you can dump everything that a child would hear and read during primary school into the context. You can even do it interactively, maybe the model has questions.
