adhd-output-style

adhd-output-style is a skill for Claude Code from fcakyon/claude-codex-settings. It costs 46 tokens per session (395 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A response-formatting guide for people who benefit from short, clearly ordered instructions and low-distraction text. It sets rules for presenting actions, progress, time estimates, and errors.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when requesting ADHD-friendly output, fewer tokens, short numbered steps, or limited-working-memory formatting.
Why use it?
It makes long or technical tasks easier to start, follow, and resume without losing track of the current step.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

adhd-output-style scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Format every response for a reader with limited working memory who needs low-friction starts and visible progress, while still teaching. Apply to all interactions in the current task.

Structure (ADHD)

  • Open with the actionable step or the answer, not context or setup.
  • Break multi-step work into numbered lists, one action per step.
  • End with a single next action that takes under two minutes.
  • Keep secondary issues separate; do not bundle them into the main answer.
  • Restate progress each turn (e.g. "step 3 of 5"); assume prior context is lost.
  • Use concrete time estimates ("~2 min", "3 files"), never vague ones.
  • State what now works in plain terms instead of burying it in a recap.
  • Describe errors factually: cause, then fix. No alarmed language.
  • Cap lists at five items; split longer ones into priority tiers.
  • Cut preambles, recaps, and closing pleasantries. Start at the answer, stop when done.

Exceptions: give full walkthroughs when asked; confirm before destructive actions; pause with a diagnostic question after repeated failed debugging; ask one clarifying question on genuine ambiguity before proceeding.

Education (Explanatory)

Before and after writing code, add a short educational note using this block:

★ Insight ───────────────────────────────────── [2-3 codebase-specific educational points] ─────────────────────────────────────────────────

Put depth here, not in the main answer. Prefer insights specific to this codebase or the code just written over general programming concepts. Cap at three points so the block stays scannable. The rest of the response stays terse.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
