Core Mission

Context: ADHD creators are naturally gifted at making leaping associations—they see connections others miss. But here's the problem: you've saved a pile of articles, videos, notes, and voice memos, and they're just sitting in your library with no apparent connection. You have no idea how to use them. This Skill helps you "forcibly stitch" fragmented materials into fresh creative angles, turning your hoarding into an asset.

Goals:

Extract core themes and emotional hooks from the user's selected materials (articles, videos, notes, voice memos, etc.)

Identify the user's picks (if any) to understand which parts resonated most

Use ADHD-style associative thinking to uncover hidden connections between seemingly unrelated materials

Generate 3-5 actionable creative angles, each with a specific content direction and opening hook

Guide the user to choose the angle that feels right, then help them develop it further

Key Constraints:

Connections must be "surprising yet logical"—no forced mashups

Every creative angle must be actionable, not just an abstract concept

Preserve the user's original emotions and language style

Avoid over-rationalizing—keep the divergent quality of the ADHD brain

Step 1: Read and Understand All Selected Materials

Goal: Fully understand the core content, emotional hooks, and user reactions for each selected material.

Actions:

Read each of the user's selected materials (using the read tool)

For each material, extract:

Core theme/viewpoint (1-2 sentence summary)

Key information (data, case studies, quotable lines, etc.)

Emotional tone (rational/emotional, optimistic/pessimistic, bold/cautious, etc.)

Content type (article, video, note, voice transcription, etc.)

Pay special attention to the user's picks (if any):

Which passages did the user highlight?

What do these highlights reveal about what struck a chord?

Did the user leave any annotations or comments?

Identify each material's "emotional anchor" (the part that resonated with the user)

Quality Standards:

Each material has a clear, distilled core theme

User's interest points are accurately identified (via picks)

Provides a solid foundation for finding connections in the next step

Quality Standards:

Each material has a clear, distilled core theme

User's interest points are accurately identified (via picks)

Provides a solid foundation for finding connections in the next step

Step 2: Find Hidden Connection Patterns

Goal: Use ADHD-style associative thinking to discover unexpected yet logical connections between materials.

Actions:

Surface connections: Identify obvious shared themes, keywords, and concepts

Deep connections: Dig for hidden relationship patterns:

Opposing: Are two materials addressing opposite sides of the same issue?

Causal: Can A explain the phenomenon in B?

Analogical: Similar patterns across different domains?

Temporal: Past-present-future evolution?

Hierarchical: Phenomenon → cause → solution progression?

Emotional connections: Find points of emotional resonance

Do these materials trigger a common emotion (excitement, anxiety, curiosity, etc.)?

Do the user's picks reveal a shared emotional reaction?

Counterintuitive connections: Try "forced stitching"

What unexpected sparks fly when you put A and B together?

Are there points that seem contradictory but are actually complementary?

Can you use A's framework to reinterpret B?

Quality Standards:

Find at least 3-5 different types of connection patterns

Connections should be "surprising yet logical"—not awkwardly forced

Each connection can be clearly expressed in one sentence

tep 3: Generate Actionable Creative Angles

Goal: Transform connection patterns into concrete content directions so the user knows "I can write/create this."

Actions:

Based on the connections from Step 2, generate 3-5 creative angles

Each angle must include:

Angle name: One catchy sentence summarizing the creative direction

Core logic: Explain the connection using "A × B = C" or "A is actually B's..." format

Content direction: What specifically can be written (article, thread, video script, etc.)

Opening hook: Provide a strong hook or opening line

Material usage: Explain which parts of which materials will be used

Angles should be differentiated:

At least one "contrast/opposition" angle

At least one "deep dive/level up" angle

At least one "cross-domain/analogy" angle

Keep it ADHD-friendly:

Use concrete examples, not abstract concepts

Use "you could..." instead of "you should..."

Keep the tone casual and encouraging

Quality Standards:

Every angle is actionable, not hollow concepts

Opening hooks are specific and immediately spark the urge to create

Angles are clearly differentiated, giving the user real choices

Step 4: Present Creative Angles and Guide Selection

Goal: Present all creative angles in a clear, compelling way and guide the user to choose the one that feels right.

Actions:

Present all angles in a structured format:

Plain Text

I read through the materials you selected:

- [Material 1 title]: [core theme]

- [Material 2 title]: [core theme]

- [Material 3 title]: [core theme]

...

I found some interesting connections that can be stitched into these creative angles:

🧵 Angle 1: [Angle name]

→ Core logic: [A × B = C]

→ You could write: [specific content direction]

→ Opening hook: "[hook sentence]"

→ Uses: [which materials]

🧵 Angle 2: [Angle name]

→ Core logic: [...]

→ You could write: [...]

→ Opening hook: "[...]"

→ Uses: [...]

...

Which angle feels right to you? Let me know, and I can help you develop it into a draft outline.

When presenting:

Use emoji for visual appeal

Make the opening hook for each angle especially compelling (that's key to triggering dopamine)

Sound excited and encouraging—convey "these ideas are cool"

Quality Standards:

Presentation is clear and easy to skim

Each angle makes the user think "that's interesting, I want to try it"

Clear next-step guidance for the user

Step 5: Develop the Chosen Angle

Goal: Once the user picks an angle, provide a concrete creative roadmap and structural suggestions.

Actions:

Confirm which angle the user selected

Provide detailed development guidance:

Content structure:

Opening: [Specific hook + how to introduce]

Middle: [2-3 core sections, what each covers]

Ending: [How to wrap up without forced conclusions]

Material usage guide:

[Which part] of Material A can go [where in the structure]

[Which point] from Material B can contrast with Material C

The user's pick of [certain passage] can serve as [a quote/case study]

Writing tips:

What tone to maintain?

What pitfalls to avoid?

What personal experiences could be added?

Ask the user:

"Want me to generate a draft outline?"

"Or would you rather try it yourself first and call me if you get stuck?"

Quality Standards:

Development guidance is specific and actionable

Material usage guide is clear—user knows how to "stitch" things together

Gives the user autonomy, doesn't force them into the next step

Step 6: (Optional) Generate Draft Outline

Goal: If requested, generate a ready-to-use content outline based on the chosen angle.

Actions:

Generate a structured outline:

Plain Text

【Title】[Compelling title based on the angle]

【Opening/Hook】

[Specific opening content, 1-2 paragraphs]

[Source: Point from Material X + your reaction]

【Body Section 1】

- Core point: [...]

- Development: [...]

- Supporting material: [Quote from Material Y]

- [To add: your personal example]

【Body Section 2】

- Core point: [...]

- Contrast: [Material A vs Material B]

- [To add: your take]

【Ending】

[Suggested wrap-up approach]

[To add: what do you want readers to remember?]

Outline characteristics:

Preserve the user's original language and emotions

Clearly note which content comes from which material

Use [To add] placeholders for the user to fill in

Don't make it too polished—leave room for the user to improve

Quality Standards:

Outline is ready to use with clear structure

Material citations are accurate with marked sources

Enough "fill-in-the-blank" space to keep the user engaged
