adhd-founder-planner is an OpenClaw skill that runs a bullet-journal (BuJo) style daily planning loop designed for time-blindness. Instead of scheduling tasks at fixed hours, it sorts them into energy-based swim lanes — MUST HAPPEN (a single priority), HIGH ENERGY (deep work), MEDIUM ENERGY (calls, standard tasks), LOW ENERGY (admin, easy wins) and NOT TODAY (captured but deferred). Tasks move between lanes as energy shifts.
The workflow has three beats: morning /adhd-planner plan sets one "must happen" thing, logs a brain dump and picks a reward; /adhd-planner today shows current lanes; evening /adhd-planner reflect lists wins, captures lessons and migrates unfinished tasks with symbols (> carry forward, < schedule later, strikethrough drop). It also ships a seven-category dopamine menu (movement, sensory, social, creation, nature, novelty, completion) so rewards are chosen before you need them. Time is expressed relatively — "morning block", ⚡5 min, 🕐30 min — with transition buffers between task types.
Who should use it
Founders and knowledge workers with ADHD or general time-blindness who abandon clock-based planners, plus anyone wanting a low-friction capture-and-migrate habit rather than another to-do app. The docs frame it for people who respond better to intent and energy than to schedules.
Setup surface
Install from ClawHub as jankutschera/adhd-founder-planner (MIT-licensed, version 1.1.x per the registry listing). Invoke via slash commands like /adhd-planner plan, /adhd-planner reflect, /adhd-planner migrate, or natural phrases such as "plan my day". Daily logs persist under ~/.openclaw/skills/adhd-daily-planner/ in dated Markdown files; the metadata notes optional persistence for migration history and notifications for reminders. No external services are required. The skill references companion templates and guides (templates/daily.md, references/swim-lanes.md, references/migration.md) inside the package.
Runner test plan
No execution test has been performed. A proposed review would include static checks of SKILL.md structure and frontmatter validity, dependency inspection (the manifest declares no hard requirements), prompt-injection screening of the bundled reference/template files, sandboxed command invocation of each documented slash command, and screenshots of generated daily/reflection logs to confirm the swim-lane and symbol output renders as described.
Risk notes
The planner writes personal task data to local files — treat that directory as sensitive. Its documentation advertises integration with a paid ecosystem (ADHD-founder.com mastermind and courses); the skill itself is free, but premium links are marketing, not required functionality. Residual risks untested here: symbol parsing edge cases, migration behavior across date boundaries, and whether optional notification hooks behave on all platforms/timezones.
