De-slop: Strip AI writing patterns

Remove the patterns that make text read like AI output. Inspired by the humanizer skill (MIT-licensed) and informed by Wikipedia's Signs of AI writing catalog, but restructured around our editing workflow and Tiger Data's brand context.

Why this matters: the same patterns that scream "AI wrote this" are also just bad writing habits. Vague where they should be specific, inflated where they should be plain, formulaic where they should be interesting. De-slopping makes text better, not just less detectable.

When to use this skill

  • Someone pastes text and asks you to make it sound less like AI or less like an LLM
  • Someone runs /de-slop on a piece of content
  • Someone says "this sounds like ChatGPT" or "fix the AI voice" or "remove the LLM tells" or "clean this up"
  • Someone refers to AI or LLM writing patterns they want removed (people use both terms interchangeably)
  • After content-reviewer flags AI voice issues and the user wants them fixed
  • Someone asks to edit AI-generated or LLM-generated drafts before publishing

When NOT to use this skill:

  • Writing new content from scratch (use brand-voice-writer)
  • Evaluating content quality (use content-reviewer)
  • General copyediting for grammar, clarity, or structure
