What it does

Unslop is an agent skill from mshumer/unslop. Use this skill when you need to run the unslop repo, analyze a domain for repetitive AI defaults, generate a reusable skill file, and verify that the output is specific and materially different from the baseline.

Its SKILL.md is about 430 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 Testing & QA. It works with Python and Playwright. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

“/unslop”

Requirements

Python 3

Workflow steps

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

Clone https://github.com/mshumer/unslop if the repo is not already present.
Enter the repo root and use a Python virtual environment.
Decide whether the job is text or visual.
Install Playwright only for visual runs
Run the tool

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit edcb623. 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:
- python3
- pip
- playwright
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, 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

Unslop loads about 426 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 184 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~55
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~426

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

The full file from mshumer/unslop at commit edcb623, republished under its MIT licence (© mshumer). 184 words, ~426 tokens.

unslop

Use this repo to generate a domain-specific profile that removes repetitive AI defaults.

Workflow

Clone https://github.com/mshumer/unslop if the repo is not already present.
Enter the repo root and use a Python virtual environment.
Decide whether the job is text or visual. Text: writing, emails, essays, tutorials, copy, code explanations. Visual: websites, landing pages, HTML pages, UI mockups.
Install Playwright only for visual runs: pip install playwright && playwright install chromium
Run the tool: python3 unslop.py --domain "<domain>" python3 unslop.py --domain "<domain>" --type visual --count 20 --concurrency 3

Output Review

Check unslop-output/analysis.md and unslop-output/skill.md.

analysis.md must be concrete, counted, and specific.
skill.md should mostly say what to avoid, not prescribe one new stock style.
For visual runs, compare unslop-output/before-after/before.html and unslop-output/before-after/after.html.
The after result should feel meaningfully less generic than before.

If the analysis is thin or obviously missed repeated patterns, rerun or rewrite the analysis from inside unslop-output after reviewing the screenshots and sample files directly.

Deliverable

Return:

The generated skill.md
The main repeated patterns the analysis found
Any caveats about sample quality, missing screenshots, or weak comparison output

How do I install Unslop in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add mshumer/unslop --skill unslop -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/unslop in mshumer/unslop) into .claude/skills/unslop in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Unslop in Codex?

Run `npx skills add mshumer/unslop --skill unslop -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/unslop in mshumer/unslop) into .agents/skills/unslop in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Unslop in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add mshumer/unslop --skill unslop -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/unslop, .gemini/skills/unslop, .github/skills/unslop and .opencode/skills/unslop in your project.

What does Unslop need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Unslop needs the command-line tools its instructions call (python3, pip and playwright). Our summary lists: Python 3.
