# anti-slop-writing
[Bahasa Indonesia](README.md) | English
A universal skill that makes AI output read more human, specific, and less stiff.
Works with **Claude.ai, Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf**, and any tool that supports system prompts.
Based on Wikipedia ["Signs of AI Writing"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs_of_AI_writing) + AI text detection research. Inspired by [@mkbijaksana](https://x.com/mkbijaksana/status/2027714311330627877).

## Before vs After
**Without this skill:**
> The festival serves as a vibrant testament to the region's rich cultural heritage, showcasing the intricate tapestry of traditions that have endured through the ages, contributing to the broader social fabric of the community.
**With this skill:**
> The festival has run every April since 1987. Locals build their own stalls. The goat cheese and handmade pottery sell out by noon.
---
## Quick Start
### Claude.ai (Web) — Easiest
1. Download `anti-slop-writing.skill` from [latest release](https://github.com/adenaufal/anti-slop-writing/releases/latest)
2. In Claude.ai: `Settings → Skills → Install from file`
3. Select the downloaded file
4. Start a new chat and go
### Claude Code
```bash
# Global
git clone https://github.com/adenaufal/anti-slop-writing ~/.claude/skills/anti-slop-writing
# Or per-project
git clone https://github.com/adenaufal/anti-slop-writing .claude/skills/anti-slop-writing
```
Skill file: `english/SKILL.md` (English) or `indonesian/SKILL.md` (Bahasa Indonesia).
### Other Tools (Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, Aider, ChatGPT)
See [Full Installation](#full-installation) below.

## How to Use
Use natural prompts:
- "Rewrite this so it sounds more human."
- "Make this not read like AI."
- "No slop. Keep it direct."
In Claude Code you can also use `/anti-slop-writing`.
### Quick Check
Send this test prompt:
```text
Rewrite this paragraph into 2 versions:
1) short formal version
2) casual version
Both must stay natural and avoid AI template phrasing.
```
If output is more concrete and sentence rhythm varies, the rules are active.
---
## Full Installation
> All tools besides Claude.ai need a repo clone first:
> ```bash
> git clone https://github.com/adenaufal/anti-slop-writing /tmp/anti-slop-writing
