This skill forces you to ask the right questions before writing and reject generic filler. ## Usage Type `/noslop write hero copy for my deployment platform` to write from scratch. Or `/noslop rewrite this: [paste existing copy]` to fix something that already exists. ## Rules These rules are active for the duration of this task. Follow all of them. ### No emojis Never use emojis in any output. Plain text only. ### No em dashes Never use em dashes. Use commas, periods, or restructure the sentence. Em dashes are the single most reliable tell that text was AI-generated. Exception: box-drawing characters (├── └── │) are not em dashes. Leave them alone. ### No AI slop All copy must sound like a human wrote it. Never produce the flat, vaguely corporate, says-nothing-while-sounding-like-something cadence that is the hallmark of unedited AI output. Kill on sight: - Hollow verb phrases: "built to understand," "designed to empower," "crafted to deliver" - Filler that adds no meaning: "seamlessly," "leverage," "elevate," "unlock," "reimagine" - Stacked buzzwords posing as a value proposition: "AI-powered solution built to engage" - Soulless symmetry: "No X. No Y. Just Z." and similar formulaic rhythm tricks - Anthropomorphizing abstractions: "a crowd that feels every lap," "technology that cares," "a platform that listens" ### Ask before writing If you don't have enough detail to write something that could only describe THIS specific thing, ask before writing. Do not produce generic copy and offer to refine later. Get the details, then write. ### Push back Challenge vague prompts. If the request would produce copy that could describe any product in any industry, say so and ask for specifics. Don't be agreeable at the expense of quality. ### Decide or escalate When offering options, rank them by recommendation. Explain why your top pick is your top pick. No open-ended lists without guidance. ## Instructions ### Step 1: Understand the request Read `$ARGUMENTS`. Determine if this is: - **Write from scratch** - the user wants new copy - **Rewrite** - the user has existing copy that needs fixing ### Step 2: Gather specifics Before writing anything, check if you have enough to write something specific. You need at minimum: - What the thing is (product, event, service, feature) - Who it's for (specific audience, not "everyone") - What makes it different (not "it's fast and easy," everyone says that) If any of these are missing, ask. Keep questions short and direct. Don't ask more than 4-5 questions at once. If this is a rewrite, diagnose what's wrong with the current copy first. Name the specific problems (generic filler, hollow verbs, no differentiator, etc.) before rewriting. ### Step 3: Write Write the copy. Keep it specific. Every sentence should say something that couldn't be said about a competitor. If appropriate, offer 2-3 options with different angles (e.g., direct, problem-first, punchy). Rank them and explain your pick. ### Step 4: Self-test Before presenting the final copy, apply this test: swap the product/company name with a competitor's name. Does the copy still work? If yes, it's too generic. Rewrite until swapping names would break it. ### Step 5: CTA check If the copy needs a call to action, ask what the CTA should be rather than defaulting to "Learn More" or "Get Started." The CTA depends on the business model (free trial, waitlist, demo, purchase). ## Source & license This open-source skill is cataloged on AgentStack and links to its original source — we do not rehost the code. - **Author:** [impactcrew](https://github.com/impactcrew) - **Source:** [impactcrew/dont-be-a-sloperator](https://github.com/impactcrew/dont-be-a-sloperator) - **License:** MIT - **Homepage:** https://dontbeasloperator.com Install and usage instructions live in the source repository linked above. ## Pricing - **Free** — Free ## Security capabilities Automated source analysis of v0.1.0 — what this tool can access: - **Network access:** no - **Filesystem access:** no - **Shell / process execution:** no - **Environment & secrets:** no - **Dynamic code execution:** no *"Yes" means the capability is present in the source — more access means more to trust, not that it is unsafe.* ## Versions - **0.1.0** — security scan: passed — Imported from the upstream source. ## Links - Listing page: https://agentstack.voostack.com/l/skill-impactcrew-dont-be-a-sloperator-noslop - Seller: https://agentstack.voostack.com/s/impactcrew - Browse the marketplace: https://agentstack.voostack.com/browse --- Listed on AgentStack — the marketplace for AI agent skills and MCP servers.
