i-have-adhd

i-have-adhd is a skill plugin for coding assistants that changes how the assistant formats its answers. Its stated goal is to stop the agent from burying the answer: it leads with the next action, numbers multi-step tasks, and avoids filler such as "Great question!" or "Hope this helps!". No ADHD diagnosis is required to use it. Installation is done by pasting a prompt into a CLI, asking the assistant to install the skill plugin from the repository and to follow the repo's AGENTS.md; an INSTALL.md with further instructions is also referenced. The README shows Claude Code plugin commands for tuning a fork: uninstall the upstream plugin, remove the marketplace entry, add your own fork as a marketplace, and install it again, then restart and re-invoke the skill. The README contrasts a "Before" and "After" answer to the same debugging question. The before version is a long paragraph with hedging and tangents; the after version gives a single command, a numbered three-step edit list with file and line references, a test command, and one concrete next step. The skill is defined by 10 rules, with the full text in skills/i-have-adhd/SKILL.md: lead with the next action; number multi-step tasks; end with one concrete next step; suppress tangents; restate state every turn; give specific time estimates in minutes rather than vague terms; make wins visible; report errors matter-of-factly; cap lists at five items; and avoid preamble, recap, and closers. Users can fork the repository, edit SKILL.md, and swap in their own copy. The README credits the approach as loosely based on The Adult ADHD Tool Kit by J. Russell Ramsay and Anthony L. Rostain, adapted for LLM responses rather than human daily planning. The project is licensed under MIT.
