a-unslop-code

a-unslop-code is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from imisic/claude-marketplace. It costs 187 tokens per session (1,718 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code review and cleanup skill that finds machine-written patterns and points out code problems that automated checks may miss. It separates actual bugs from code that is merely unsuitable or stylistically artificial.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit or revise source code, prioritize correctness problems, remove tutorial-like boilerplate, and compare changes with the repository's existing patterns.
Why use it?
It helps prevent made-up APIs, swallowed errors, unfinished stubs, unnecessary abstractions, and code that ignores the surrounding project.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

a-unslop-code scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/unslop_code_scan.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 128 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

a-unslop-code

Part of the unslop family (see a-unslop-text, a-unslop-ui). Same shape: an auto-trigger, a Build mode and an Audit mode, a scanner that gates on a high-severity exit code, and an unslop-ignore line escape. This one is about code.

What it is not. It does not write good code and it has no house style. It removes the surface cues that read as machine-generated, and it points at the deeper tells that ship bugs, the ones no scanner catches. Whether the code is correct and right for the problem is still your call.

Sort every tell before you fix it

One question sets the order of work: is the code wrong, wrong for the job, or does it just look machine-made?

  • Bug. A bare except eats the failure you needed. A made-up API will not run. A // rest of your code stub means the file is unfinished. Fix these because the code is broken, the same as any bug, whether or not anyone suspected AI.
  • Substance. Not a local bug, wrong for the job: tutorial-shaped boilerplate, an abstraction with one caller, a 2000-line change that should have been 50 because it ignored the repo. A compiler passes these; a reader comparing the diff to the neighbouring code does not.
  • Cosmetic. The chat voice leaking into the file: emoji, a comment that restates the next line, a process_data doing eleven things, pasted "Good catch!" text. Worth removing, but nothing breaks if one survives.

The ranking behind this is blunt: the structural tells (tutorial shape, made-up APIs) lead by a wide margin, and the cosmetic ones people argue about sit far down. So the surface pass is the cheap part, not the job. A clean scan is not clean code.

How it fits your setup

If your project already has house rules for substance (smallest code that solves the problem, no abstraction for single-use code, surgical changes, comment the why not the what, no commented-out code, no v2/v3 files, remove orphaned imports), this skill does not restate them. It is the audit layer that catches a violation of them, plus the scanner for the cosmetic tells. If no-emoji and no-em-dash are already house rules for you, the scanner flags emoji in source on top of that.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
