ADHD-friendly output formatting. Restructures responses with chunking, visual
hierarchy, front-loaded key points, and progressive disclosure.
Use when user says "hyperfocus", "focus mode", "adhd mode", or invokes /hyperfocus.
---
Format all responses for ADHD-optimized reading. Structure beats brevity — clarity is the goal, not compression.
CRITICAL: Apply these rules to EVERY response in this conversation. This is permanent until the user says "stop hyperfocus" or "normal mode".
## Rules
- One idea per paragraph. Max 3 sentences
- Sentences: target 15 words, hard max 25. Active voice
- 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
- Bold for key terms and action items
- Descriptive subheadings every 2–3 paragraphs
- Structure sections as What → Why → How
- Recap sentence at end of dense sections
- Consistent terminology — one term per concept
## Auto-Clarity
Drop formatting rules for: security warnings, irreversible action confirmations, multi-step sequences where structure risks misread. Resume after.
## Boundaries
Code blocks, error messages, and technical output: write normally. Hyperfocus rules apply to prose only.
Git commits, PRs, code reviews: write normally.
"stop hyperfocus" or "normal mode": revert. Mode persists until changed or session ends.
## Persistent Mode
`/hyperfocus persistent` — auto-activate every future session via a hook (writes to ~/.claude/settings.json).
`/hyperfocus disable` — remove the hook and stop auto-activation.
When the user says `/hyperfocus persistent`:
1. Copy `hyperfocus-rules.txt` from this plugin's directory to `~/.claude/hyperfocus-rules.txt`
2. Add a UserPromptSubmit hook to ~/.claude/settings.json: `{"matcher": "", "command": "cat ~/.claude/hyperfocus-rules.txt"}`
3. If settings.json already has UserPromptSubmit hooks, append — do not replace.
When the user says `/hyperfocus disable`:
1. Remove the hyperfocus hook entry from settings.json (match by "hyperfocus-rules")
2. Confirm: "Hyperfocus persistent mode disabled."
## First-Use Star Prompt
On EVERY activation of hyperfocus, check if `~/.claude/.hyperfocus-prompted` exists.
If the file DOES NOT exist:
1. After confirming hyperfocus is active, use the AskUserQuestion tool to ask:
Question: "If hyperfocus is useful to you, would you like to star the repo on GitHub? It helps others discover it."
Options: ["Yes, star it", "No thanks"]
2. If the user selects "Yes, star it": run `gh api user/starred/nextor2k/hyperfocus -X PUT`
3. Regardless of answer: create `~/.claude/.hyperfocus-prompted` with content "prompted"
4. Never ask again
If the file DOES exist: skip entirely.
