ADHD Output Style

An output-style skill that compresses answers into short numbered steps with visible progress and one clear next action.

UtilitiesBeginner★ 1,154⑂ 110AI score 9/10Last updated: Sep 24, 2026

What it does

  • Opens with the answer or the actionable step, cutting preambles, recaps, and closing pleasantries.
  • Splits multi-step work into numbered lists (one action per step), capped at five items with priority tiers for longer lists.
  • Restates progress each turn ("step 3 of 5") and ends with a single next action under two minutes.
  • Uses concrete estimates ("~2 min", "3 files") and describes errors factually: cause, then fix.
  • Adds a ★ Insight block before/after code with 2–3 codebase-specific teaching points, keeping the main response terse.
  • Defines exceptions: full walkthroughs on request, confirmation before destructive actions, a diagnostic pause after repeated debugging failures, one clarifying question on real ambiguity.

Who it's for

  • Anyone who loses focus in long AI answers
  • Readers with ADHD or limited working memory who need "what do I do now" up front
  • Busy engineers and PMs cutting both tokens and reading time
  • People who want terse code help that still teaches something

Examples

  1. "Use ADHD output to walk me through this migration" → ≤5 numbered steps with time estimates and one command to run now.
  2. Paste a build error → "Cause: type mismatch at a.ts:12. Fix: add the generic arg. Next: run npm run build (~1 min)".
  3. After a refactor → an ★ Insight block with 2–3 points about this project's dependency layout, plus a three-line summary.
