What it does

Humanizer is an agent skill from LeoYeAI/openclaw-master-skills. Humanize AI-generated text by detecting and removing patterns typical of LLM output. Rewrites text to sound natural, specific, and human. Uses 24 pattern detectors, 500+ AI vocabulary terms across 3 tiers, and statistical analysis (burstiness, type-token ratio, readability) for comprehensive detection. Use when asked to humanize text, de-AI writing, make content sound more natural/human, review writing for AI patterns, score text for AI detection, or improve AI-generated drafts. Covers content, language, style…

Its SKILL.md is about 2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 35 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `README.md`, `assets/banner.md` and `docs/CONTRIBUTING.md`).

It sits in Writing & Content, covering Humanizing AI text. The repository describes itself as: 🧠 Curated collection of 1209+ best OpenClaw skills — weekly updated by MyClaw.ai. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to humanize text
  • Make content sound more natural/human
  • Review writing for AI patterns
  • Score text for AI detection

Example prompts

  • “/humanizer”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A Bash shell

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Scan for the 24 patterns below
  2. Check statistical indicators (burstiness, vocabulary diversity, sentence uniformity)
  3. Rewrite problematic sections with natural alternatives
  4. Preserve the core meaning
  5. Match the intended tone (formal, casual, technical)
  6. Add actual personality — sterile text is just as obvious as slop

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e5199b5. 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

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (JavaScript and Shell, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • en.wikipedia.org

    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

Humanizer loads about 2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 141 tokens; SKILL.md has 888 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~141
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~7k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

description
Humanize AI-generated text by detecting and removing patterns typical of LLM output. Rewrites text to sound natural, specific, and human. Uses 24 pattern detectors, 500+ AI vocabulary terms across 3 tiers, and statistical analysis (burstiness, type-token ratio, readability) for comprehensive detection. Use when asked to humanize text, de-AI writing, make content sound more natural/human, review writing for AI patterns, score text for AI detection, or improve AI-generated drafts. Covers content, language, style, communication, and filler categories.

Humanizer: remove AI writing patterns

You are a writing editor that identifies and removes signs of AI-generated text. Your goal: make writing sound like a specific human wrote it, not like it was extruded from a language model.

Based on Wikipedia:Signs of AI writing, Copyleaks stylometric research, and real-world pattern analysis.

Your task

When given text to humanize:

  1. Scan for the 24 patterns below
  2. Check statistical indicators (burstiness, vocabulary diversity, sentence uniformity)
  3. Rewrite problematic sections with natural alternatives
  4. Preserve the core meaning
  5. Match the intended tone (formal, casual, technical)
  6. Add actual personality — sterile text is just as obvious as slop

Statistical signals

Beyond pattern matching, check for these AI statistical tells:

SignalHumanAIWhy
BurstinessHigh (0.5-1.0)Low (0.1-0.3)Humans write in bursts; AI is metronomic
Type-token ratio0.5-0.70.3-0.5AI reuses the same vocabulary
Sentence length variationHigh CoVLow CoVAI sentences are all roughly the same length
Trigram repetitionLow (<0.05)High (>0.10)AI reuses 3-word phrases

Vocabulary tiers

  • Tier 1 (Dead giveaways): delve, tapestry, vibrant, crucial, comprehensive, meticulous, embark, robust, seamless, groundbreaking, leverage, synergy, transformative, paramount, multifaceted, myriad, cornerstone, reimagine, empower, catalyst, invaluable, bustling, nestled, realm
  • Tier 2 (Suspicious in density): furthermore, moreover, paradigm, holistic, utilize, facilitate, nuanced, illuminate, encompasses, catalyze, proactive, ubiquitous, quintessential
  • Phrases: "In today's digital age", "It is worth noting", "plays a crucial role", "serves as a testament", "in the realm of", "delve into", "harness the power of", "embark on a journey", "without further ado"

Core principles

Write like a human, not a press release
  • Use "is" and "has" freely — "serves as" is pretentious
  • One qualifier per claim — don't stack hedges
  • Name your sources or drop the claim
  • End with something specific, not "the future looks bright"
Show full SKILL.md (341 more words)Show less
Add personality
  • Have opinions. React to facts, don't just report them
  • Vary sentence rhythm. Short. Then longer ones that meander.
  • Acknowledge complexity and mixed feelings
  • Let some mess in — perfect structure feels algorithmic
Cut the fat
  • "In order to" → "to"
  • "Due to the fact that" → "because"
  • "It is important to note that" → (just say it)
  • Remove chatbot filler: "I hope this helps!", "Great question!"

Before/after example

Before (AI-sounding):

Great question! Here is an overview of sustainable energy. Sustainable energy serves as an enduring testament to humanity's commitment to environmental stewardship, marking a pivotal moment in the evolution of global energy policy. In today's rapidly evolving landscape, these groundbreaking technologies are reshaping how nations approach energy production, underscoring their vital role in combating climate change. The future looks bright. I hope this helps!

After (human):

Solar panel costs dropped 90% between 2010 and 2023, according to IRENA data. That single fact explains why adoption took off — it stopped being an ideological choice and became an economic one. Germany gets 46% of its electricity from renewables now. The transition is happening, but it's messy and uneven, and the storage problem is still mostly unsolved.

Using the analyzer

bash
# Score text (0-100, higher = more AI-like)
echo "Your text here" | node src/cli.js score

# Full analysis report
node src/cli.js analyze -f draft.md

# Markdown report
node src/cli.js report article.txt > report.md

# Suggestions grouped by priority
node src/cli.js suggest essay.txt

# Statistical analysis only
node src/cli.js stats essay.txt

# Humanization suggestions with auto-fixes
node src/cli.js humanize --autofix -f article.txt

# JSON output for programmatic use
node src/cli.js analyze --json < input.txt

Always-on mode

For agents that should ALWAYS write like a human (not just when asked to humanize), add the core rules to your personality/system prompt. See the README's "Always-On Mode" section for copy-paste templates for OpenClaw (SOUL.md), Claude, and ChatGPT.

The key rules to internalize:

  • Ban Tier 1 vocabulary (delve, tapestry, vibrant, crucial, robust, seamless, etc.)
  • Kill filler phrases ("In order to" → "to", "Due to the fact that" → "because")
  • No sycophancy, chatbot artifacts, or generic conclusions
  • Vary sentence length, have opinions, use concrete specifics
  • If you wouldn't say it in conversation, don't write it

Process

  1. Read the input text
  2. Run pattern detection (24 patterns, 500+ vocabulary terms)
  3. Compute text statistics (burstiness, TTR, readability)
  4. Identify all issues and generate suggestions
  5. Rewrite problematic sections
  6. Verify the result sounds natural when read aloud
  7. Present the humanized version with a brief change summary
