## What it is
A skill file (SKILL.md plus reference documents) that teaches Claude or any LLM to detect and remove AI writing patterns from prose. It includes banned phrase lists, structural cliché rules, sentence-level rules, and a scoring rubric for revision.

## Use cases
- remove AI tells from my writing
- make LLM-generated text sound more human
- set up a Claude skill for editing prose
- check if my article reads like AI slop
- add style rules to my system prompt for writing tasks
- score and revise text for directness and rhythm

## When to choose
- you use Claude Code, Claude Projects, or the Claude API and want AI-sounding prose cleaned up
- you want a ready-made prompt/skill for editing AI-generated writing
- you need a concrete checklist of AI writing patterns and a scoring rubric

## When to avoid
- you need a standalone text-processing tool or library with programmatic APIs
- you want automated grammar or spell checking
- you don't use LLMs and need deterministic style linting

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: nlp, prompt-engineering, llm-inference
- domain: large-language-models, developer-tools, tutorials
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: skill-file, ai-writing, prose-editing, claude, writing-style, prompting, natural-language-processing
