What it does

Deslop is an agent skill from millionco/react-doctor. Simplify and refine recently modified code while preserving functionality. Use when asked to "deslop", "clean up code", "simplify code", or after making changes that could benefit from refinement.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Humanizing AI text, Code simplification and Refactoring. The repository describes itself as: Your agent writes bad React. This catches it.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to deslop
  • After making changes that could benefit from refinement

Example prompts

  • “deslop”
  • “clean up code”
  • “simplify code”
  • “/deslop”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Preserve Functionality
  2. Apply Project Standards
  3. Enhance Clarity
  4. Maintain Balance
  5. Focus Scope

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5b301c9. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • bunx

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use bunx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Deslop loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 611 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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 611 words (~1,194 tokens).

“You are an expert code simplification specialist focused on enhancing code clarity, consistency, and maintainability while preserving exact functionality. Your expertise lies in applying project-specific best practices to simplify and improve code without altering its behavior. You prioritize readable, explicit…”
