"Configure the ai-slop plugin for a consumer repository: exemption paths for documents that legitimately need em dashes, excluded paths, AI-vocabulary word-list tuning, and per-rule thresholds, written to the team layer .claude/ai-slop.json with the user's confirmation. Use when: 'set up ai-slop', 'configure slop detection', 'exempt this doc from the em-dash rule', 'tune the slop thresholds'."

Purpose
The ai-slop detector ships neutral defaults. A consumer repo declares its own exemptions and
tuning in .claude/ai-slop.json, resolved per the config-cascade convention: user-global
(~/.claude/ai-slop.json), team (.claude/ai-slop.json, tracked), local overlay
(.claude/ai-slop.local.json, gitignored). Later layers refine earlier ones per key.
Keys
| Key | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
excluded_paths |
glob list | Files the audit never scans |
em_dash_allowed_paths |
glob list | Documents exempt from the zero-tolerance em-dash rule |
vocab_add |
word list | Additions to the AI-vocabulary list |
vocab_remove |
word list | Removals from the AI-vocabulary list |
disabled_rules |
rule slugs | Rules the audit skips entirely (reported as disabled) |
thresholds |
map | Per-rule density thresholds: ai_vocabulary, copulative_avoidance, rule_of_three (matches per 1000 words; density rules also need at least 3 matches) |
check (default — read-only)
Report the current state and change nothing:
- Run the detector's
--show-config(it names the layer supplying each value) or read the
layers directly; report which layer wins each key and which layers are absent. - Flag drift: unknown keys, an em-dash threshold key (the rule is zero-tolerance by design —
per-document exemption viaem_dash_allowed_pathsis the supported mechanism), globs that
match nothing, or adisabled_rulesslug that names no shipped rule. - End with what
applywould change, if anything was flagged.
apply
Everything check does, then the confirmed write:
- Interview the user for what they want changed. For em-dash exemptions, ask for the documents
that genuinely require em dashes; the default posture is that most work does not. - Write ONLY the team layer (
.claude/ai-slop.json), showing the diff and getting explicit
confirmation before writing. Never write the user-global or overlay layers on the user's
behalf; name them as options the user edits themselves. - Re-run
--show-configand report the new effective state.
