Researcher “gave Claude Code ‘ADHD’… and it thinks 2x better now.” Outside experts want more proof.

Researcher Udit Akhouri released ADHD, an open-source third-party skill for Claude Agent SDK and Claude Code.

The tool fans out multiple reasoning branches, scores them, and prunes weaker paths to aid brainstorming and planning.

Akhouri says it is meant for ideation rather than faster coding, and GitHub evals suggest it beats a baseline in most cases.

Some researchers and community members say the approach resembles existing parallel-agent methods and want stronger evidence for the “2x better” claim.
