Pprose DE Slop

Remove AI-writing tells and formulaic LLM prose while preserving meaning and voice; modifies the target. Use when asked to de-slop, de-slopify, humanize, remove AI tells, or make writing sound less AI-generated or less machine-like; also use, unprompted, when text being written, edited, or reviewed reads machine-generated (an AI-heavy draft, pasted chatbot output). Fixes hollow emphasis, canned transitions and conclusions, boilerplate openers, inflated significance, false agency, negative parallelism, dramatic fragments, marketing register, chat-artifact leakage, and reflexive three-item lists.

Remove AI-Writing Tells

This is a focused apply skill: it edits prose to remove documented LLM-register tells without installing a different authorial voice. It may modify the target document.

Before acting, read the bundled ai-prose-corrections.md in full. The reference is part of this skill; the pprose CLI is not required.

In the edit ladder this skill sits between pprose-common-edit (the universal structure-and-formatting tier) and ; both and include this audit. Apply de-slop wherever prose is drafted or edited, not only on request; load the reference’s Drafting Directives while writing new text. Reserve the broader tiers for when a fuller edit is wanted.
