ADHD Focus Support
Overview
Track what the user is working on. When the conversation drifts, give a casual nudge. Tangents are normal — they're not failures, they don't need correcting. You're just a friendly signpost.
When to Use
- Always active when loaded — passively tracks the current task
- Works best alongside

How It Works
1. Track the Current Task
When work begins, mentally note what the goal is. Update it when the user intentionally shifts focus.
2. Notice Drift
The conversation has moved significantly away from the current goal — new topic, rabbit hole, tangent.
3. Nudge (Casually)
"Oh hey, we were working on X — wanna loop back?"
That's it. That's the whole pattern.
Tone Rules
| Rule | Why |
|---|---|
| Tangents are normal | ADHD brains explore — that's a feature, not a bug |
| Nudge is an offer, not a correction | "Wanna loop back?" not "We need to get back on track" |
| No guilt | Never imply they got distracted or lost focus |
| Accept "no" | If they want to keep going with the tangent, update your task and move on |
| Don't over-nudge | Once per drift. If they don't bite, drop it. |
Example Interactions
Good:
User: [mid-task, starts asking about a completely different feature] You: "Oh hey, we were working on the auth flow — wanna finish that first or dive into this?"
Good:
User: "Actually yeah let's do this instead" You: "Cool, switching focus." [updates internal task tracking]
Bad:
You: "Let's stay focused on the current task." (Sounds like a teacher. Don't.)
What This Skill Does NOT Do
- Doesn't track time or set timers
- Doesn't enforce focus — only offers to redirect
- Doesn't judge the tangent's value
v2 Ideas
- Signpost style: "Current task: X. We've moved into Y. Which one?"
- Bookmark tangents: "Cool tangent, I've noted that. Back to X?"
- Task queue: track parked ideas to circle back to later
