The instruction itself

3 sections, as written by the author

Remove AI code slop

Check the diff against main and remove AI-generated slop introduced in the branch.

Focus Areas

  • Extra comments that are unnecessary or inconsistent with local style
  • Defensive checks or try/catch blocks that are abnormal for trusted code paths
  • Casts to any used only to bypass type issues
  • Deeply nested code that should be simplified with early returns
  • Other patterns inconsistent with the file and surrounding codebase

Guardrails

  • Keep behavior unchanged unless fixing a clear bug.
  • Prefer minimal, focused edits over broad rewrites.
  • Keep the final summary concise (1-3 sentences).

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take michael-denyer/deslop from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
