Compress
Shorten the input without losing meaning.
Use this for information and instructions, not ordinary prose polishing. Use deslop when voice and writing quality are the main problem.
Process
- Identify the purpose and intended reader or agent.
- Extract the required content: facts, actions, inputs, outputs, constraints, defaults, examples, edge cases, checks, and stop conditions.
- Remove repetition, throat-clearing, backstory, generic advice, motivational language, and structure that does not change understanding or behaviour.
- Replace vague phrases with a concrete instruction only when the source supports it. Otherwise cut them.
- Merge overlapping rules and place each fact once, where the reader needs it.
- Rewrite in plain words and the smallest structure that preserves the logic.
- Compare the result with the source. Restore anything whose removal changes the likely interpretation or outcome.
