The bagel they save for the regulars. Don't skim, savour.
Summary
Solo researcher Udit Akhouri released a third-party Agent SDK tool called "ADHD" for Claude Code on Reddit, claiming it helps coding agents "think 2x better" by fanning out parallel divergent thoughts under different cognitive frames, scoring, pruning traps, and deepening survivors. The tool is gaining fast traction on GitHub, but outside experts remain skeptical about its novelty and the "2x better" benchmark claims, calling for more rigorous testing and proof.
