Slop Cop didn't invent the idea of hunting AI slop. It synthesizes and de-conflicts several open-source projects and a body of recent research into one routed skill with a forced scoring procedure.
- stop-slop — Hardik Pandya
- slopless — seochecks.ai
- hallmark — Nutlope
- taste-skill — Leonxlnx
- desloppify — Peter O'Malley
- Rossmann Group no-AI-slop writing rules
- Prose — updated for the 2026 landscape, where the em dash is a fading tell and cadence uniformity is the strongest signal.
- Design — generated-UI research, including the roughly 50ms credibility judgment and the indigo-gradient / Inter default cluster.
- Code — LLM code-smell findings: happy-path scope, over-documentation of the obvious, and higher smell density on more complex tasks.
A single routed entry point across prose, design, and code; a false-positive-prevention layer so it tickets slop and not vocabulary; and a forced scoring procedure with calibration anchors, so grades stay consistent instead of drifting on gut feel.
