ADHD Boosts Coding Agent Reasoning with Tree-of-Thought
ADHD is an open-source skill designed for AI coding agents to improve problem-solving and architectural design capabilities. By scattering ideation across subagents using a Tree-of-Thought structure and scoring them via a skeptical critic agent, it explores and prunes solution paths before implementation.
Structuring agentic ideation through parallel subagents and adversarial filtering is a major step towards reliable AI-assisted software engineering.
- –Employs Tree-of-Thought ideation across isolated subagents to explore diverse design paths without context contamination.
- –Uses cognitive framing techniques to approach complex code problems from multiple distinct perspectives.
- –Incorporates a skeptical senior engineer critic agent to filter out unviable or trivial solutions early in the process.
