description: Remove AI-generated code slop from a branch: unnecessary comments, redundant defensive checks, boilerplate, style drift, and type casts. Use for cleanup of AI-written code, not for broad code review, security audit, TDD, or final verification.
Remove AI Code Slop
Check the diff against main and remove all AI-generated slop introduced in this branch.
Routing Boundary
Use this skill when the user's problem is cleanup of AI-generated code noise. If the user asks for a broad correctness/maintainability review, use code-reviewer. If the user asks whether existing review comments should be accepted, use receiving-code-review.
What to Remove
- Extra comments that a human wouldn't add or are inconsistent with the rest of the file
- Extra defensive checks or try/catch blocks that are abnormal for that area of the codebase (especially if called by trusted/validated codepaths)
- Casts to
any to get around type issues
- Inline imports in Python (move to top of file with other imports)
- Any other style that is inconsistent with the file
Process
- Get the diff against main:
git diff main...HEAD
- Review each changed file for slop patterns
- Remove identified slop while preserving legitimate changes
- Report a 1-3 sentence summary of what was changed
