threads-humanizer

threads-humanizer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sergebulaev/threads-skills. It costs 118 tokens per session (1,514 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill that rewrites Threads drafts to remove patterns often associated with AI-written text, then checks finished drafts against a Threads-specific checklist. Threads is Meta’s text-based social network.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it on posts, threads, replies, or quote-post drafts to rewrite wording, review changes, check character limits, and run a review-only pre-publish audit.
Why use it?
It helps when a draft sounds artificial or may break format rules, without requiring you to identify every issue yourself.

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

threads-humanizer 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 134 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Threads Humanizer

Rewrites any Threads post or thread to remove AI tells, and audits a finished draft against the 2026 Threads ranking checklist. Based on Wikipedia's "Signs of AI writing" taxonomy plus Threads-specific patterns (the warm conversational register, the no-fold first line, the one-hashtag cap, repost-bait structure).

When to use

  • Before publishing any AI-drafted post or thread (rewrite mode)
  • Pre-publish review of a finished draft (audit mode, see sub-skills/post-audit.md)
  • When a draft feels off and you cannot pinpoint why

Input

Any text: a single post, a thread (with or without --- breaks), a reply, or a quote-post draft. Optional: target voice samples (the user's past posts).

Output

  • Rewritten text with AI tells removed
  • A diff showing what changed and why
  • Per-post char count (flagging anything over 500)
  • Confidence: "human", "mixed", "AI-likely"

Modes

# Default: scrub AI tells and fix Threads-format issues
threads-humanizer <text>

# Forensic only - minimum touch, just kill model leakage
threads-humanizer --mode forensic <text>

# Audit - detection-only pass-fail review, no rewrite
# Runs the 2026 Threads checklist: 500-char fit, first-line hook, one-hashtag
# cap, emoji limit, link placement, thread tap-through, warm tone, goal clarity.
# Returns Blockers + Warnings + suggested fixes. See sub-skills/post-audit.md.
threads-humanizer --mode audit <text>

The three passes

Pass 1 - SCRUB (delete or replace)

Apply the tiered catalogs in references/scrub-rules.md:

  • Forensic (always on): real model leakage no human types. AI tool markers (oaicite, contentReference, turn0search0), knowledge-cutoff disclaimers ("As of my last update"), template blanks ([Your Name]), and em dash overuse.
  • Strict (default on): bad Threads style regardless of origin. Vocabulary swaps (leverage -> use, delve -> look, harness -> use, foster -> build), filler adverbs (fundamentally, essentially, ultimately), phrase cleanups ("in today's fast-paced world", "game-changer", "deep dive"), and dead closers ("what do you think?").

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.
