I have ADHD, and my biggest problem with Claude Code isn't the coding. It's that I forget everything. Tasks I said I'd do "later", ideas I floated last week, questions Claude asked me that I never answered, sessions that died mid-decision. All gone the moment I close the terminal.
When I open a session it quietly surfaces my 1-3 most stale forgotten threads, and flags anything that's been sitting there over 2 weeks. If I commit to a task mid-chat, Claude silently records it and marks it done when it's actually finished. No todo app to maintain, which is important because I have never once maintained a todo app for more than 3 days.
You can also set reminders by just saying them. "Remind me tomorrow at 3pm to check the deploy" or "every session remind me to run tests first" — they show up naturally in the conversation when they're due. There's a focus mode too, /focus 25 ship-the-release, and if the chat drifts off task it pulls you back. When time's up you get a little wrap-up of what got done.
The part I'm most careful about is not making it annoying. Random nudges are capped at 2 per session with a 3-day cooldown per item, and the model only brings things up when it actually fits the conversation. If it feels like nagging, people will uninstall it in a day.
There's also "I'm fried" mode — tasks get energy tags, and when you have no energy it only offers the low-effort ones. And a local dashboard with stats and streaks, though honestly the streak counter is just dopamine bait and I love it.
It's in test mode and I've mostly just been dogfooding it myself, so I'd genuinely love feedback from other ADHD brains. What would actually help you? What would be too annoying?
