Overview
Stop Slop is a powerful skill file designed to help you refine AI-generated prose by identifying and eliminating common "tells" that betray its artificial origin. This repository provides a structured approach to training large language models, like Claude, to recognize and remove predictable phrases, repetitive structures, and characteristic rhythms often found in AI writing. Elevate your content from merely functional to genuinely engaging and human-sounding.
Key Features
- Targeted AI Tell Detection: Pinpoints predictable phrases (e.g., throat-clearing openers, adverbs, business jargon) and structural clichés (e.g., binary contrasts, passive voice, narrator-from-a-distance voice) that are hallmarks of AI-generated text.
- Comprehensive Rule Set: Offers specific guidelines for sentence construction, including avoiding certain sentence starters, em dashes, staccato fragmentation, and lazy extremes, while mandating active voice.
- Scoring System for Refinement: Implements a unique 1-10 scoring system across key dimensions (Directness, Rhythm, Trust, Authenticity, Density) to provide actionable feedback for revision.
- Modular Skill Structure: Organizes rules logically into
SKILL.md,phrases.md,structures.md, andexamples.mdfor easy integration and customization. - Flexible Integration: Adaptable for use with Claude's code, projects (uploading
SKILL.md), custom instructions, or API calls.
Typical Use Cases
- Content Creation & Editing: Enhance blog posts, articles, marketing copy, and reports by ensuring they sound authentically human and engaging.
- AI-Assisted Writing: Improve the quality and readability of drafts generated by AI tools, removing robotic or unnatural phrasing.
- Academic & Professional Writing: Polish academic papers, professional communications, and technical documentation to convey a more nuanced and credible voice.
- Creative Writing: Refine narrative prose, dialogues, and descriptions to maintain a consistent and compelling human authorial voice.
