Setting boundaries to combat "anticipation anxiety" as a NT with a DX partner?

I am a NT, my spouse that I live with is DX. I put "anticipation anxiety" in quotes because that's what came up when I googled it.

Basically, anytime I'm in a separate room from my spouse, I have about 10 to 40 minutes of alone time, before my spouse decides to enter the room, and say "can I hang out with you?" or they sit there for a few minutes and then leave and say "ok, I guess I will stop bothering you and leave now".

I love my spouse, and we spend every day together, before and after work. And we go on dates on the weekend.

So, how do bring up a discussion about not interrupting when I am trying to decompress or focus on a solitairy task like reading or graphic design or painting and so on?

The anticipation anxiety is interrupting my flow state, and I don't know what to do, besides leave and go to a library.

Adding an no ai (like a No smoking sign) to your business card & website, good idea, or alienate clients who use it?

I was gonna make some business cards with my Cricut, and wondered if it's worth putting a small, but noticable Red circle slash with a.i. logo next to my social logos.

Or, if this could potentially send the wrong message, that maybe people would associate me with a.i. voices,

or push away customers who don't exactly use a.i. voices but use a.i. in their workplace in a general sense, like a tech company.

I want to put it on my website too, because I believe in not licensing my voice away for a.i. training.
