This contribution presents the new phase-2 CMS baseline tracking strategy currently proposed for online event reconstruction, which can be similarly useful in offline reconstruction under the extreme pileup conditions of the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). By unifying diverse algorithmic paradigms and integrating machine learning(ML)techniques into a coherent sequence,
CMS can maintain high-efficiency and high-resolution tracking while improving the fake track rate and the computational performance, a crucial aspect especially for the HL-LHC. The approach combines GPU-optimized algorithms (Patatrack, LST) with vectorized CPU methods (mkFit), exploiting modern hardware to maximize throughput. This heterogeneous strategy reduces the resource requirements and enhances the physics reach by incorporating a global displaced track reconstruction and extending sensitivity to rare, interesting signatures, such as long-lived particles.
