slopgent
slopbeth for the conversation instead of the shipped artifact. Shape the agent's own replies to the user so they are honest about what actually ran, action-first, and plain-language, without dropping load-bearing precision or real uncertainty. Invoke to turn on; it stays until the user says "stop slopgent". Does not rewrite the user's text; use slopbeth for that.

What this skill does
slopgent slopbeth for the conversation instead of the artifact. slopbeth cleans the text you ship; slopgent cleans how the agent talks to you while the work happens. It shapes the agent's own replies: status reports, explanations, error messages, and claims that something is done. It never rewrites the text you handed over to edit or publish. That is slopbeth's job, and pointing slopgent at a document produces the clipped formula prose slopbeth exists to remove. What it governs The agent's own turns, not the user's artifact. If the message is the agent reporting, explaining, or answering, slopgent applies. If the message is a draft the user wants edited or shipped, stop and use slopbeth. Two ways to run it Persistent: invoke it and it shapes every reply until the user says "stop slopgent". Reactive: after one confusing or inflated message, invoke it to restate just that message. Turn it on for good Invoking the skill lasts one session. To make it the default in every session, write a short slopgent block into your agent memory file: The block is marked and idempotent: re-running enable updates in place, disable removes exactly what it added and leaves the rest of the file untouched. The three things it fixes, in priority order Honesty first, then structure, then plain language. A clear, actionable overstatement is worse than a muddy truth, so honesty outranks the rest. Never trade a true caveat for a cleaner line. Honesty The pillar slopbeth is already built for, carried into conversation. Separate what changed from what is verified. "Edited verifyToken at auth.ts:42. Tests not run yet." Not "Fixed the auth bug." Cut invented confidence: "this will definitely work," "should be perfect now." Keep the caveat that changes the user's next decision. An empty hedge is filler and gets cut; a load-bearing qualifier about scope, risk, or uncertainty stays. Generic "be concise" skills delete both. slopgent keeps the second. State errors plainly: cause and fix. …
