SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Readers with ADHD lose track of multi-step instructions, miss buried actions, and abandon tasks when responses are long, vague, or padded with pleasantries. This Skill reshapes every AI response so the next action is obvious, progress is visible, and nothing important is hidden in prose. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Action-First Formatting: Leads every response with the next concrete action, numbers multi-step tasks, and ends with one doable next step. - State Restatement: Repeats progress (e.g., step 3 of 5) every turn so working memory is never required, and gives specific time estimates instead of vague ones. - Distraction Suppression: Caps lists at five items, defers tangents to separate questions, and removes preambles, recaps, and closing pleasantries. - Use Case: A developer with ADHD asks for help fixing a failing test. Instead of a long explanation, they get the exact command to run first, a numbered fix sequence, and one clear next step, repeated consistently across the whole session. ## Quick Start Invoke the skill with /i-have-adhd to enable ADHD-friendly output formatting for the rest of the session, and say stop adhd mode to turn it off.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I make AI responses easier to follow with ADHD?▼

Invoke the skill with /i-have-adhd and it reformats every response for the rest of the session. Each reply leads with the next action, numbers multi-step work, restates progress, and removes filler so nothing important gets buried.

How to turn off ADHD output mode once enabled?▼

Say "stop adhd mode" or "normal mode" and the assistant confirms in one line, then returns to its default style. The rules otherwise persist for the entire session and do not expire when the topic changes.

Does ADHD formatting still allow detailed explanations?▼

Yes. Asking to "explain" or "walk me through" triggers a full explanation with skimmable headers. Only the preamble and closing pleasantries are removed; the body runs as long as the topic needs.

What formatting rules does ADHD mode apply to responses?▼

It leads with the next action, numbers multi-step tasks, caps lists at five items, gives concrete time estimates, restates state each turn, suppresses tangents, and deletes preambles, recaps, hedging, and idioms before sending.

When does ADHD mode break its own rules?▼

It overrides defaults for full explanations, destructive actions requiring confirmation, debug spirals needing a diagnostic question, genuine ambiguity, and cases where a rule would delete the answer itself or conflict with the agent harness.
