What it does
Design Anti Slop is an agent skill from KartikLabhshetwar/better-shot. Detect and fix AI design slop — the convergent look that shows up across AI-generated landing pages and dashboards (purple/indigo gradients, rounded-2xl everywhere, three-box feature grids, bento dashboards, aspirational-but-empty hero copy, etc.). Use this skill whenever the user asks Claude to build/generate/mock up a landing page, dashboard, or SaaS UI, OR when the user shares an existing design (screenshot, URL, code, Figma link) and asks for critique, feedback, "does this look AI-generated?", or "make this…
Its SKILL.md is about 2.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files (for example `patterns/conceptual.md`, `patterns/structural.md` and `patterns/visual.md`).
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Landing pages and Humanizing AI text. It works with Figma and macOS. The repository describes itself as: Screenshot, screen recording, and video editor for macOS. Native SwiftUI app with capture deck, 75+ customizable shortcuts, URL scheme automation, and self-hosted cloud sharing…
When your agent uses it
- The user asks Claude to build/generate/mock up a landing page
- When the user shares an existing design (screenshot
- Figma link) and asks for critique
- Does this look AI-generated?
Example prompts
- “does this look AI-generated?”
- “make this less generic.”
- “— phrases like”
- “/design-anti-slop”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Conceptual fixes (layer 3) first. If the hero claim is hollow or the demo is abstract, fix that before touching styling.
- Structural fixes (layer 2) next. If the structure is "three-box grid + KPI row + logo soup," fix the composition before repainting it.
- Visual fixes (layer 1) last. Only reach for these when the deeper layers are sound, or as a quick symptomatic patch the user has…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 164d8b9. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Design Anti Slop loads about 2.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 221 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,422 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,422 words (~2,534 tokens).
“AI design slop is a statistical problem with aesthetic symptoms. Language models sample near the center of their training distribution, so without specific constraints they produce the same landing page and the same dashboard, over and over. This skill exists…”
