# ADHD Productivity Skill
## When to Invoke
- User starts new topic without closing previous task
- User mentions feeling stuck or overwhelmed
- Session duration exceeds 30 minutes without completion
- User asks for help focusing
## Intervention Techniques
### Micro-Commitment
Break tasks into smallest possible step:
- "Just open the file"
- "Just write the first line"
- "Just run one command"
### Body Doubling
Virtual presence accountability:
- "I'm here. You: [action]. Me: ⏱️ Waiting..."
- Set 5-minute timer
- Check in after timer
### Chunking
Divide overwhelming tasks:
- Maximum 3 steps visible at once
- Complete step 1 before revealing step 2
- Celebrate each chunk completion
