Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00064 | $0.02650 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00032 | $0.01325 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00530 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00265 |
Grade A, and why
anti-slop 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 4d 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.

Anti-Slop Skill
Detect and eliminate generic AI-generated patterns ("slop") across natural language, code, and design.
What is AI Slop?
AI slop refers to telltale patterns that signal low-quality, generic AI-generated content:
- Text: Overused phrases like "delve into," excessive buzzwords, meta-commentary
- Code: Generic variable names, obvious comments, unnecessary abstraction
- Design: Cookie-cutter layouts, generic gradients, overused visual patterns
This skill helps identify and remove these patterns to create authentic, high-quality content.
When to Use This Skill
Apply anti-slop techniques when:
- Reviewing AI-generated content before delivery
- Creating original content and want to avoid generic patterns
- Cleaning up existing content that feels generic
- Establishing quality standards for a project
- User explicitly requests slop detection or cleanup
- Content has telltale signs of generic AI generation
Core Workflow
1. Detect Slop
For text files:
python scripts/detect_slop.py <file> [--verbose]
This analyzes text and provides:
- Slop score (0-100, higher is worse)
- Specific pattern findings
- Actionable recommendations
Manual detection: Read the appropriate reference file for detailed patterns:
references/text-patterns.md- Natural language slop patternsreferences/code-patterns.md- Programming slop patternsreferences/design-patterns.md- Visual/UX design slop patterns
2. Clean Slop
Automated cleanup (text only):
# Preview changes
python scripts/clean_slop.py <file>
# Apply changes (creates backup)
python scripts/clean_slop.py <file> --save
# Aggressive mode (may slightly change meaning)
python scripts/clean_slop.py <file> --save --aggressive
Manual cleanup: Apply strategies from the reference files based on detected patterns.
Text Slop Detection & Cleanup
High-Priority Targets
Remove immediately:
- "delve into" → delete or replace with "examine"
- "navigate the complexities" → "handle" or delete
- "in today's fast-paced world" → delete
- "it's important to note that" → delete
- Meta-commentary about the document itself
What ships with it
7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

anti-slop is a skill published in the GitHub repository rand/cc-polymath (140 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 64 tokens to every session and 2,650 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
