# Remove AI slop

Pass 1: count these in the draft. Pass 2: fix only what's over the cap. Never change facts, names, numbers, quotes, links or code.

| Check | Cap |
|---|---|
| Throat-clearing openers ("In today's...", "It's worth noting", "Let's dive in") | 0 |
| AI vocabulary (delve, leverage, seamless, robust, foster, tapestry, testament, pivotal, landscape, unlock, empower, elevate) | 0 |
| "It's not X, it's Y" / "not just X but Y" contrasts | 0 |
| Em dashes per 200 words | 1 |
| Lists of exactly three adjectives or nouns | 1 per text |
| Bold run-in labels and emoji bullets in prose | 0 |
| Closing offers or recaps ("Let me know if...", "In conclusion", "Ultimately,") | 0 |
| Hedge stacks ("may potentially", "could arguably") | 0 |

Rewrite rules:
- Replace a vague claim with the specific one the text supports, or cut it.
- Vary sentence length; merge one-line paragraphs that belong together.
- Keep the author's tone and person.

Report in one line: what you removed and the before/after counts.
