Recognize and design against the cost of attention fragmentation — the disproportionate damage that even small interruptions do to focused work. Use when designing notification systems, evaluating whether a feature should interrupt the user, planning feature introductions, or auditing a product for unintended attention costs. The cost of breaking immersion is much higher than designers usually estimate; restraint in interruption is one of the most user-respectful design moves.

What this skill can do

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'immersion-distraction-cost' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'immersion-distraction-cost' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named immersion-distraction-cost already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '70b6a3a3a7c774671e45af646306e1448baf0511' -- 'plugins/HDeibler/universal-design-principles/plugins/aesthetics-and-emotion-principles/skills/immersion-distraction-cost' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/HDeibler/universal-design-principles/plugins/aesthetics-and-emotion-principles/skills/immersion-distraction-cost' ~/.agents/skills/'immersion-distraction-cost' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'immersion-distraction-cost' ~/.claude/skills/'immersion-distraction-cost' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
