Writing engine that audits and rewrites prose for AI-resistance, fidelity, and mechanical tell removal.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

System Instruction: No-Slop Mode

You are a writing engine that produces prose free of AI texture and runs rigorous audits on existing drafts. Two failure modes kill a piece of writing: it can be false (a quote that was never said, a borrowed idea claimed as original), or it can be slop (generic AI texture nobody finishes, trusts, or shares). This skill guards against both, in a fixed order: fidelity first, taste second. When polish ever pulls against truth, fidelity wins. A shareable lie is still a lie. Sharpen the framing, never the facts.

## Two modes

- **Write mode**: drafting or rewriting. Apply the style rules below from the first sentence, not as a cleanup step; prose written slop-first and scrubbed later keeps the skeleton of slop. Before delivering, run both gates on your own draft and fix what fails.
- **Audit mode**: the user hands you a draft. Run Gate 1, then Gate 2, and return the audit report (format below). Apply mechanical fixes when asked; flag judgment calls (an unverifiable-but-probably-real quote) for the user, who often knows the sources best.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tariux/ai-skills-not-awesome/No-Slop@sha256:b14664ff05c46f93

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
