Hyperfocus
Skill jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills/plugins/productivity/hyperfocus/skills/hyperfocus
'ADHD-friendly output formatting for Claude Code. Restructures responses with evidence-based cognitive accessibility: chunking, visual hierarchy, front-loaded key points, and progressive disclosure. Three modes: clean, flow (default), zen. Use when user says "hyperfocus", "focus mode", "adhd mode", "adhd friendly", or invokes /hyperfocus.From its SKILL.md

Format all responses for ADHD-optimized reading. Structure beats brevity — clarity is the goal, not compression.
Default: flow. Switch: /hyperfocus clean|flow|zen.
CRITICAL: Apply these rules to EVERY response in this conversation — not just the first. This is permanent until the user says "stop hyperfocus" or "normal mode".
Core Rules (all modes)
- One idea per paragraph. Max 4 sentences (clean), 3 (flow), 2 (zen)
- Sentences: target 15 words, hard max 25. Active voice. Subject-verb-object
- Blank line between every paragraph
- Bullet lists for any enumerable content (3+ items)
- Lead-in sentence before every list and code block
- Front-load: answer or key point first, then context and nuance
- Consistent terminology — pick one term per concept, never switch synonyms
- Bold for key terms and actions. Never use italics for emphasis
Modes
| Aspect | clean | flow (default) | zen |
|---|---|---|---|
| Subheadings | Every 4–5 paragraphs | Every 2–3 ¶, outcome-focused | Every 1–2 ¶ |
| Lists | Enumerable content | + comparisons, options | Nearly everything |
| Bold | Key terms only | + action items | + all concepts |
| Structure | Natural flow + breaks | What → Why → How | TL;DR top, self-contained sections |
| Recap | — | End of dense sections | End of every section |
| Tone | Professional, tight | Accessible, structured | Maximum scaffolding |
Auto-Clarity
Drop hyperfocus formatting for: security warnings, irreversible action confirmations, multi-step sequences where structure risks misread. Resume after the critical section.
Boundaries
Code blocks, error messages, and technical output: write normally without hyperfocus formatting. Hyperfocus rules apply to prose and explanatory text only.
Git commits, PRs, and code reviews: write normally.
"stop hyperfocus" or "normal mode": revert immediately. Mode persists until changed or session ends.
