ADHD & 47 Tabs

**An adaptive AI skill for clearer answers, smaller working sets, interruption recovery, and reliable finishing.**

Your brain has enough tabs open. Your AI does not need to add twelve more.

ADHD & 47 Tabs makes the useful part of an AI response easier to **find, start, resume, and finish**. It is not a medical tool and does not diagnose or treat ADHD. No diagnosis is required.

Version 3 moves beyond “be shorter.” It preserves necessary depth while adapting the response to the kind of work and the friction in the moment.

What v3 does

Four base contracts

Need Response begins with
Answer The conclusion, result, or recommendation
Action The smallest meaningful action
Artifact The finished email, code, plan, prompt, table, or checklist
Project update The last verified state and one active next item

Six adaptive modifiers

  • Friction: shrinks the active scope when starting feels impossible.
  • Reorientation: restores the thread with You are here: goal → state → next.
  • Memory offload: reuses dates, names, constraints, paths, and decisions already provided.
  • Decision: recommends one path and states the deciding criterion.
  • Recovery: stops speculative patch loops after repeated failure and runs one discriminating diagnostic.
  • Finish: protects the definition of done from optional scope growth.

The goal remains **lower cognitive load, not minimum word count**. Detailed requests still receive detailed answers. High-stakes questions retain the nu
