Rules against AI slop in code, comments, commit messages and docs. Use whenever you write or edit code, write documentation, a README, a commit message or a PR description, or review changes for quality.

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

# Anti-slop

Slop is output that looks finished but isn't, or that pads the work with words and code nobody asked for. Hold every change to these rules.

## Code

- **Do what was asked, and only that.** No extra features, options, config flags, abstraction layers or "future-proofing" the task doesn't need.
- **No stubs.** Never leave `TODO`, `FIXME`, `pass`, `throw new Error("not implemented")`, "implement this", "your logic here" or "... rest of the code". Write the real code, or say plainly what you didn't do and why.
- **No debug leftovers.** Remove `console.log`, `print` debugging and `debugger` statements you added. Real logging goes through the project's logger.
- **No commented-out code.** Delete it; git keeps history.
- **Comments explain why, not what.** Don't narrate code ("This function adds two numbers", "Increment i"). Keep comments that record a reason, a constraint or a non-obvious decision.
- **Match the codebase.** Follow the file's naming, structure, error handling and comment density. Reuse existing helpers instead of writing near-duplicates.
- **No new files without a reason.** Don't add READMEs, example files, summary markdown or test scaffolding unless asked.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add alvin-reyes/better-agentic-ide/anti-slop@sha256:5f327c3b94b34040

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260930.f223569, 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.
