desloplisted

Copy-edit text to strip AI/LLM writing tells ("slop") and make it read as human-written — overused words (delve, showcase, robust), significance-inflation phrases ("stands as a testament to", "plays a pivotal role"), scene-setting openers ("in today's fast-paced world"), hedging, em-dash overuse, rule-of-three, and "it's not X, it's Y" parallelism. Use when asked to "deslop", "de-slop", "remove AI tells", "make this sound less like AI/ChatGPT", "make this sound human", or copy-edit a draft (.md, .txt, prose, emails, docs) that reads as machine-generated.

The job is **not** find-and-replace from a synonym table — that just makes *differently* robotic text. The job is to **delete the inflation and force a concrete specific**, while preserving the author's meaning and voice. Three rules that override everything else: 1. **Density, not isolated words.** One "crucial" on a page is fine. Act on clusters and reflexive use. 2. **Don't over-edit.** Legitimate uses stay; voice and meaning are preserved; no facts change. When in doubt, lighter edit + flag it. 3. **Prose only.** Never edit inside fenced blocks, inline code, commands, paths, URLs, link targets, or YAML frontmatter. A literal `underscore` in a naming rule and `--not --remotes` in a git invocation are not tells. ## Flags - `--report` — detect and list tells with locations; do **not** rewrite. Use when the author wants to edit themselves. - `--all` — include the low-signal word hits the detector hides on reference docs. - Default — rewrite the text, removing tells, then summarize what changed. ## Workflow ### Step 1: Get the text and mode - **File path in the prompt** (`.md`, `.txt`, etc.
