If the intention to divorce merely crosses my mind, does talaq take effect?

No; talaq does not take effect through intention or inner thoughts alone without words spoken or written.
The Prophet ﷺ said that Allah pardons his ummah for what crosses their hearts so long as they do not act on it or speak it. Imam al-Bukhari placed this hadith in the Book of Talaq as evidence that passing thoughts do not effect talaq.
The same applies to obsessive doubt (waswas): a person who keeps wondering "have I divorced my wife?" should hold to certainty, namely that the marriage still stands. If the doubts persist, see a religious officer or counsellor. See talaq & divorce.
