deslop

What it does

Deslop reviews your branch diff and surgically removes the patterns that AI coding assistants leave behind — the stuff that looks right but degrades real codebases over time. It doesn't rewrite your logic. It cleans up the noise.

What it removes

• Inconsistent defensive coding patterns (try/catch where none existed before)
• Over-explained inline comments that state the obvious
• Redundant null checks and guard clauses that contradict the existing style
• Unnecessary abstractions introduced for a single use case
• Variable renames that don't follow the local convention

What it preserves

• All behavior — no functional changes, ever
• Local code style and naming conventions
• Intentional defensive patterns already present in the codebase

When to use it

After any AI-assisted coding session — Cursor, Copilot, Claude, doesn't matter. Run deslop before your PR review and your teammates will thank you. It's the diff review you should have done before pushing.

Usage

Install it and OpenClaw will invoke it automatically when you use the deslop skill command on any branch. It reads your git diff, applies pattern detection, and either cleans in-place or returns a reviewed diff for your approval.
