What it actually is
i-have-adhd is a skill — not an app, not an API. You drop it into a coding agent like Claude Code or Codex, and it’s basically 10 rules in a markdown file. Flip it on with /i-have-adhd, kill it with stop adhd mode.
Instead of an agent that thinks out loud for six paragraphs before telling you what to do, it forces the answer to the top: next action first, multi-step work numbered with one bounded task each, status restated every turn, tangents suppressed, and real time estimates instead of “this might take a while.” ADHD-friendly output, but honestly everyone wants it.
Why it’s blowing up
It hits a universal nerve — AI agents talk too much and hide the point. Author ayghri watched it jump 1,700 stars in a single day to top GitHub Trending, past 8k total. The New Stack ran a piece claiming it made Claude Code “think 2x better,” though outside experts want harder proof before buying that.
The clever part isn’t new tech, it’s the framing. Nobody installs “be less verbose.” Call it a disorder your AI can have, and suddenly plain concise instructions become a skill people actually want.
