stop-slop

Apply the core rules: cut filler phrases and adverbs, break binary contrasts and triple parallels, use active voice with named actors, and delete sentences that only introduce the next one. Then run the quick-check list before delivering the prose.

Vietnamese AI prose keeps Vietnamese vocabulary but preserves English syntax: binary contrast "không A, mà B", signposts like "Nói cách khác:", and calques like "đóng đinh dữ kiện". Run the bundled blacklist-vi.txt with grep to flag candidate spans, then judge each hit in context.

No. The skill explicitly excludes code, code comments, commit messages, and structured output like YAML, JSON, and tables. Terse machine-facing text is not considered slop and the rules do not apply to it.

Search the exact phrase in quotes on the web. If no page uses it as a unit and results only match the component words separately, the phrase was invented in translation. Replace it with phrasing a native speaker would say aloud.

Keep technical nouns readers already say out loud, such as attention, RAM, context length, and FLOPs. Only kill calqued metaphors and idioms; translating established technical terms into Vietnamese makes the text stranger, not more natural.

Rate the draft 1-10 on six dimensions: directness, rhythm, trust, authenticity, density, and evenness. A total below 42 out of 60 means revise and re-score; at or above it, the draft ships.
