Review docs/prose for Writing Guidelines compliance. Use when asked to "review my docs", "check writing style", "audit prose", "review docs voice and tone", or "check this page against the writing handbook".
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
6 rules. 6 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
6
Common
Most of the 8 edited versions we read keep these.
0
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Common: line 17
Read the specified files (or prompt user for files/pattern)
- Common: line 18
Check against all rules in the fetched guidelines
- Common: line 29
Use WebFetch to retrieve the latest rules.
- Common: line 33
When a user provides a file or pattern argument:
- Common: line 35
Read the specified files
- Common: line 39
If no files specified, ask the user which files to review.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 8 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.
Used alongsideProjects with it also use deslop, frontend-design and 2 more.
Other files people use alongside this one.
Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.
SentrySkilldeslop
Strip AI-generated noise from the diff before pushing — extra comments a human wouldn't write, defensive try/catch in trusted code paths, casts to any, inline imports in Python, and other style inconsistencies with the surrounding file. Use this immediately before commit so the diff stays clean.

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
Reviews can't be read right now.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
