Use on "make this sound more natural", "remove the AI tells", "clean up this writing", or before prose reaches a user or document. Strips filler, throat-clearing, jargon, passive voice, binary contrasts and rhetorical scaffolding; scores a 50-point rubric. Not for full proofreading (use /proofreader).
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
# Stop Slop
Remove AI writing patterns from prose. Use when drafting, editing, or reviewing text to eliminate predictable AI tells.
---
## When Invoked
- User asks to "make this sound more natural", "fix AI-sounding", "clean up", or "rewrite"
- Any text generation task — apply rules to output before presenting
- Editing or reviewing any prose output
- Building prompts or system messages
---
## Core Rules
1. **Cut filler phrases.** Remove throat-clearing openers, emphasis crutches, and all adverbs.
2. **Break formulaic structures.** Avoid binary contrasts, negative listings, dramatic fragmentation, rhetorical setups, false agency.
3. **Use active voice.** Every sentence needs a human subject doing something. No passive constructions. No inanimate objects performing human actions.
4. **Be specific.** No vague declaratives. Name the specific thing. No lazy extremes ("every," "always," "never").
5. **Put the reader in the room.** "You" beats "people." Specifics beat abstractions.
6. **Vary rhythm.** Mix sentence lengths. Two items beat three. End paragraphs differently. No em dashes.
7. **Trust readers.** State facts directly. Skip softening, justification, hand-holding.

How to install
mdr add tekkiiiii/the-agency/stop-slop@sha256:dd87ef2175af13f6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261026.c4135d4, 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.
