.agents/skills/unslop/SKILL.md

unslop is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from poteto/noodle. It costs 65 tokens per session (1,035 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A writing editor that removes common signs of AI-generated prose and keeps the original meaning and intended tone.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to revise documentation, README files, blog posts, and other non-code writing so it sounds more human.
Why use it?
It helps when text sounds formulaic, overly polished, or impersonal. It also adds specific opinions, varied sentence rhythms, and a more natural voice.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is poteto/noodle's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on noodle itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything noodle configures →

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

unslop 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 7d ago.

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.

Unslop

Edit text to remove AI patterns and add human voice.

Process

  1. Scan for the patterns below
  2. Rewrite — preserve meaning, match intended tone
  3. Add soul (see next section)
  4. Self-audit: "What makes this obviously AI generated?" Fix remaining tells.

Adding soul

Removing patterns is half the job. Sterile, voiceless writing is just as obvious.

  • Have opinions. React to facts instead of neutrally listing pros and cons.
  • Vary rhythm. Short sentences. Then longer ones that take their time. Mix it up.
  • Acknowledge complexity. "Impressive but also kind of unsettling" beats "impressive."
  • Use "I" when it fits. First person isn't unprofessional.
  • Let some mess in. Perfect structure feels algorithmic.
  • Be specific. Not "this is concerning" but "there's something unsettling about agents churning away at 3am."

Patterns to detect and fix

Content

  1. Significance inflation — "pivotal moment", "testament to", "evolving landscape", "setting the stage for", "indelible mark", "deeply rooted". Cut puffery, state what happened.
  2. Notability name-dropping — listing media outlets without context. Pick one, say what was said.
  3. Superficial -ing phrases — "highlighting...", "ensuring...", "reflecting...", "showcasing...", "fostering...". Delete or expand with real sources.
  4. Promotional language — "nestled", "vibrant", "breathtaking", "groundbreaking", "renowned", "stunning", "must-visit". Use neutral descriptions.
  5. Vague attributions — "Experts believe", "Industry reports suggest", "Some critics argue". Name the source or delete.
  6. Formulaic challenges — "Despite challenges... continues to thrive." Replace with specific facts.

Language

  1. AI vocabulary — Additionally, crucial, delve, enduring, enhance, fostering, garner, interplay, intricate, landscape (abstract), pivotal, showcase, tapestry (abstract), testament, underscore, vibrant. Replace with plain words.
  2. Copula avoidance — "serves as", "stands as", "boasts", "features". Just say "is" or "has".
  3. Negative parallelisms — "It's not just X, it's Y." State the point directly.
  4. Rule of three — forcing ideas into groups of three. Use the natural number.
  5. Synonym cycling — protagonist/main character/central figure/hero in one paragraph. Pick one, repeat it.
  6. False ranges — "from X to Y" where X and Y aren't on a meaningful scale. List topics directly.

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.
