New 'i-have-adhd' skill trims filler from AI coding assistant replies
Developer Ayghri released i-have-adhd, an open-source skill/plugin for coding assistants like Claude Code that rewrites how the AI communicates: it leads with the next action, numbers steps, gives time estimates, caps lists, and cuts preambles, tangents and closing pleasantries. It installs via a CLI prompt pointing to the project's GitHub repo and can be customized by forking and editing its SKILL.md rules file.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
AI coding assistants often wrap useful fixes in verbose hedging and recaps, which slows down developers who just want the next concrete step. This tool targets that friction directly by enforcing a terse, action-first output format, and its open customization model lets teams tune communication style to their own workflow preferences.
- The skill enforces 10 rules like leading with action, numbering steps, and banning closers like 'Hope this helps!'
- It installs into CLI-based coding assistants such as Claude Code via a simple prompt referencing the GitHub repo's AGENTS.md.
- Users can fork and edit the underlying SKILL.md file to customize the assistant's response style further.
