ADHD Skill for Claude Code: 6 Isolated Threads to Break AI Tunnel Vision
techNmak · x · 2026-08-04
A developer introduced a new skill called ADHD designed to fix the "tunnel vision" problem in coding agents like Claude Code and Cursor, where the AI often presents a single idea in multiple disguises.
- Core Mechanism: Instead of a single continuous thought process, it spins up six fully isolated threads that cannot see each other, forcing each to approach the problem from a unique angle.
- Scoring Pass: After all six threads finish, a separate pass scores the outputs, flags potential traps, and digs deeper into actual blockers.
- Advantage over ToT: While Tree-of-thought branches out, those branches still share memory and context. This approach enforces true cognitive diversity through strict context isolation.
