AI Slop Cleaner Task Card

Use this bounded helper for cleanup/refactor/deslop work, not as a competing top-level workflow. Shared operating invariants live in templates/AGENTS.md; this card defines scope, smell taxonomy, passes, and evidence.

When to use and inputs

Use when working code is bloated, noisy, repetitive, over-abstracted, or AI-generated; the user requests cleanup/refactor/deslop; or a follow-up left duplicate/dead code, weak boundaries, missing tests, fallback-like paths, or wrappers. Inputs are the requested feature/files and behavior to preserve. A file list scope is valid; keep the pass bounded to it. Limit the pass to the calling task's changed files unless broader cleanup was requested.
