ADHD-friendly skill for coding assistants

This repo changes agent output style so the answer comes first, steps stay numbered, and tangents get cut. It works through skill files, plugin manifests, and hooks so the same reply style can follow you across agent tools.

Videos about this repo

Who it's for

Builders who want their agent to stop burying the answer and give direct, action-first replies.

What it delivers

You can get shorter, clearer agent replies that make the next step obvious.

What it does

Action-first replies

The skill tells the assistant to lead with the next action instead of opening with filler.

Numbered steps

Multi-step answers should be broken into numbered lists, capped at five items.

No closing fluff

The rules suppress preambles, recap paragraphs, and sign-off phrases like 'Hope this helps!'.

State restatement

The assistant is told to restate the current state on every turn and end with one concrete next step.

Cross-tool packaging

The repo ships plugin and skill files for several agent tools, plus hook scripts for always-on formatting.

What it does

A skill for your coding assistant that stops it from burying the answer. Action first. Steps numbered. No "Hope this helps!"

What changes

Before

Great question! Let me think about this. Your auth flow has a few moving pieces: the middleware, the token verification, and the cookie handling. Looking at src/auth.ts, the verifyToken function (around lines 42-58) seems to be using an older jsonwebtoken API. One approach would be to update the package and rewrite that function. After making the change, you'd want to run the auth tests to confirm nothing breaks. By the way, you might also want to look at your dependency versions overall. Hope this helps! Let me know if you want to dig deeper.

After

Run npm install jsonwebtoken@latest, then edit src/auth.ts:42.

  1. Open src/auth.ts
  2. Replace verifyToken (lines 42–58) with the snippet below
  3. Run npm test -- auth.spec.ts

Next: paste the first failing line if any test fails.

The rules

10 rules. Full text in SKILL.md.

  1. Lead with the next action.
  2. Number multi-step tasks.
  3. End with one concrete next step.
  4. Suppress tangents.
  5. Restate state every turn.
  6. Specific time estimates (minutes, not "a bit").
  7. Make wins visible.
  8. Matter-of-fact errors.
  9. Cap lists to 5 items.
  10. No preamble. No recap. No closers.

Tune it

Fork, edit skills/i-have-adhd/SKILL.md, then swap your copy in:

claude plugin uninstall i-have-adhd            # drop the upstream copy first:
claude plugin marketplace remove i-have-adhd   # fork and upstream share both names
claude plugin marketplace add <your-username>/i-have-adhd
claude plugin install i-have-adhd@i-have-adhd

Restart Claude Code, then re-invoke /i-have-adhd.
