Writing skill for Claude Code and SKILL.md tools

This skill adds rules that try to strip out common AI writing tells from text the agent generates. It is meant to be used as a reusable writing constraint across Claude Code and other tools that read `SKILL.md` files.

Who it's for

Builders who want their agent to write tweets, emails, articles, bios, reports, and copy with fewer AI tells.

What it delivers

You can ask your agent to write something and get text that avoids common AI-sounding patterns.

What it does

Banned words list

Blocks 50+ words that detection studies and community lists often flag.

Banned phrases list

Blocks common filler phrases like “It’s worth noting” and “In today’s competitive...”

Sentence opener rules

Avoids openers such as “Certainly,” “Moreover,” and “Additionally,” that make text feel machine-written.

Structure checks

Pushes against patterns like rule-of-three symmetry, uniform sentence length, hedging, and corporate pep talk tone.

Punctuation and formatting checks

Reduces em dash overuse, ellipses, emoji bullets, hashtag stacks, and markdown leaks in plain text.

Accuracy guardrails

Calls out invented statistics, fabricated quotes, and fake anecdotes.

How to get it

  1. 1Run
    /plugin marketplace add jalaalrd/founder-toolkit
  2. 2Copy the anti-ai-slop-writing folder to ~/.claude/skills/
    cp -r skills/anti-ai-slop-writing ~/.claude/skills/
  3. 3The skill activates automatically when you ask the AI to write anything. You can also…

README

Anti-AI-Slop Writing Skill

A Claude Code skill (and universal SKILL.md) that forces any AI to produce human-sounding text by eliminating statistically detectable AI writing patterns.

What It Does

Every piece of text the AI produces — tweets, emails, articles, bios, reports, copy and message passes through constraints that eliminate the vocabulary, structure, punctuation, and formatting patterns that readers and detection tools flag as AI-generated.

Based on research from Carnegie Mellon (2025), Wikipedia's Signs of AI Writing page, Buffer's 52M post analysis, and community detection patterns documented across X and Reddit.

What It Catches

  • 50+ banned words flagged across multiple AI detection studies (delve, tapestry, landscape, testament, vibrant, pivotal, etc.)
  • 35+ banned phrases ("In today's competitive...", "It's worth noting...", "Not just X, but Y", etc.)
  • 16 banned sentence openers ("Certainly,", "Moreover,", "Additionally,", etc.)
  • 10 structural patterns (rule of three, uniform sentence length, hedging seesaw, corporate pep talk, passive voice, etc.)
  • Punctuation tells (em dash overuse, exclamation spam, ellipsis abuse)
  • Formatting leaks (markdown in plain text, emoji bullet points, hashtag stacks)
  • Accuracy failures (invented statistics, fabricated quotes, fake anecdotes)

Installation

Claude Code (plugin marketplace)

/plugin marketplace add jalaalrd/founder-toolkit

Claude Code (manual)

Copy the anti-ai-slop-writing folder to ~/.claude/skills/:

cp -r skills/anti-ai-slop-writing ~/.claude/skills/

Other AI Tools (Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, etc.)

Copy the SKILL.md file to your tool's skills directory. The SKILL.md format is cross-compatible with 11+ coding agents.

Any AI Chat (ChatGPT, Claude.ai, Gemini, etc.)

Copy the contents of SKILL.md and paste it at the start of any conversation. It works as a system-level writing constraint.

Usage

The skill activates automatically when you ask the AI to write anything. You can also invoke it directly:

/anti-ai-slop-writing

Or just ask: "Write this tweet / email / article and make it sound human."
