What problem does it solve? AI-generated and AI-assisted prose carries recognizable statistical fingerprints β€” negative parallelism ("not X but Y"), em-dash overuse, rule-of-three lists, puffery vocabulary, and uniform sentence cadence β€” that make text read as generic machine output. This Skill mechanically detects those tells and rewrites the text into its target genre without reintroducing new ones. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Mechanical tell detection: Runs runnable grep -Ein regex patterns from a fixed catalog covering negative parallelism, puffery, hedging, false ranges, formatting, and cadence β€” never relying on subjective judgment. - Meaning-based rewriting: Triages every finding (delete strawman negations, earn real contrasts, cut empty claims) instead of paraphrasing the pattern into a disguised equivalent. - Verify loop and register check: Re-scans every rewrite until zero pattern hits (capped at 4 passes), then validates the result against genre profiles for academic, tweet, reddit, LinkedIn, email, blog, marketing, and docs. - Use Case: You drafted a LinkedIn post with an AI assistant and it reads like every other LinkedIn post. Invoke the skill to get a findings table (categories, counts, worst examples), a rewritten version in your voice, and a change log of what was fixed. ## Quick Start De-slop this draft and rewrite it as a reddit comment, then show me the findings table and change log.

FAQPage Schema
How do I remove AI writing tells from a draft?β–Ό

Run a mechanical scan using regex patterns targeting negative parallelism, puffery words, hedging phrases, and false ranges, then rewrite each finding by asserting its actual meaning. Re-scan the rewrite and repeat until zero patterns match, since rewriting often reintroduces the same tells.

How to make AI-generated text sound human?β–Ό

Make the text commit to specific claims with concrete names, numbers, and details rather than adding slang or fake typos. Vary sentence length deliberately, cut throat-clearing openers and summary conclusions, and match the target genre's register such as plain paragraphs for reddit.

What are the most common signs of AI-generated writing?β–Ό

The strongest tells are the "not X but Y" contrast move, uniform sentence length across paragraphs, puffery words like delve and seamless, rule-of-three lists, false ranges, and reflexive hedging. Formatting tells include bold scattered through prose and emoji-decorated headers.

Does de-sloping text work for academic papers?β–Ό

Yes, but the approach differs by genre: academic de-sloping cuts significance puffery and commits to calibrated claims while keeping formality, passive voice where expected, and long sentences. It does not inject first-person attitude or casual voice into formal venues.

Will rewriting AI text once remove all the tells?β–Ό

Usually not, because the model rewriting the text shares the same priors that produced the tells, so paraphrased variants reappear. The workflow requires re-running the full detection scan on each rewrite, capped at four passes before rewriting stubborn sentences from their bare claim.

When should I not use an AI de-sloping pass?β–Ό

Avoid it when you need content changes rather than style changes, since the pass preserves the author's meaning, claims, and facts exactly. It also cannot fix missing substance β€” if no concrete specifics exist, the text needs real information added by the author first.
