Score a draft, page, or caption set for AI slop with a four-tier severity model instead of a flat banned-words list. Exact production narration fails outright, rhetorical scaffolds warn only when repeated, lexical tells become review prompts, and document-level patterns are diagnosed. Use when the user asks to score, audit, grade, or check text for AI tells, runs /slop-detector, or wants a pass/fail gate before publishing.
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
# Slop Detector
Audit prose for AI slop and report findings by severity. Stop Slop tells a model what not to write; this skill checks what was written and says how bad it is.
A banned-words list fails in both directions. It flags "robust" in a sentence about a nonce implementation, and it passes a caption that says "a fresh capture, not a generic mockup." The severity model below separates the two.
## Severity model
`slop-detector.json` in this folder is the authority. Four tiers:
| Severity | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| `hard_fail` | Exact, high-confidence production or process narration in reader-facing copy ("captured with Playwright", "Status in this study", "Weak spot: I didn't test") | Block publication and rewrite. A low score never rescues a hard fail. |
| `warn_if_repeated` | Rhetorical scaffolds that can carry one real turn: mirrored "not X, it's Y" contrasts, "No X. No Y. No Z." triads, per-item disclaimers, templated roundup filler | Count across the piece. Warn only at the family's repeat threshold. |

How to install
mdr add wpgaurav/claude-code-skills/slop-detector@sha256:8cee68830ad86604The 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.
