"extended cognition" is the generalization of this concept as defined in academia (cognitive science and the like). I had a very vivid experience while backpacking on acid: I fully comprehended the cyborg nature I had adopted by carrying all the resources necessary to sustain life on my person. The hose pumping water into the organs best suited to deal with it, the extra deployable shelter I had stashed away, the ability to isolate more water from harmful pathogens for continued sustenance, on-demand flame and vessel to cook foods that would otherwise be inedible/undigestable, etc. Your cognitive processes reorganize themselves around those new affordances you've provided for yourself, and you can reasonably say you're thinking with those faculties and not merely of them.
