⚠ This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (repo unreachable/deleted). The test below is what we measured on Jul 19, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.
Ran live against a 37-line Python file planted with six slop patterns and it caught every one: import-explainer comments, an assertion-free test, a single-implementation Factory, 'utilizes a sophisticated paradigm' jargon, an 'I hope this helps!' chatbot line, and a time.sleep(5) wait, all organized into a severity-ranked report with a numbered fix menu. The no-skill baseline flagged the obvious comment noise but did not name the chatbot-bleed or the sleep-wait as distinct issues. A tidy, self-contained prompt skill that is honest about ignoring security and performance.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 7/10
- Docs & honesty 5/5
What Unslop Code does
A code-review skill that scans a diff, file, or pasted code for AI-generated slop and reports it as a severity-ranked, categorized roast with a numbered fix menu. Triggers on requests to clean up AI comments, detect slop, or de-clutter code. Covers narrator comments, assertion-free tests, needless abstraction, chatbot bleed, and sleep-based waits; explicitly ignores security and performance.
How to install Unslop Code
Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.

- How do I install Unslop Code?
- Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
- Can I use Unslop Code with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
- The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
