Slopwatch: LLM Anti-Cheat for .NET
When to Use This Skill
Use this skill constantly. Every time an LLM (including Claude) makes changes to:
- C# source files (.cs)
- Project files (.csproj)
- Props files (Directory.Build.props, Directory.Packages.props)
- Test files
Run slopwatch to validate the changes don't introduce "slop."
What is Slop?
"Slop" refers to shortcuts LLMs take that make tests pass or builds succeed without actually solving the underlying problem. These are reward hacking behaviors - the LLM optimizes for apparent success rather than real fixes.
