aislop: Open-source CLI tool detects low-quality code patterns left by AI coding agents

Sesame, salt, and substance. A flagship bake.
Summary
aislop is an open-source CLI tool (MIT-licensed) that detects low-quality patterns left behind by AI coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and OpenCode. It uses 40+ deterministic rules across 7 programming languages (TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, Ruby, PHP, Java) to catch issues such as narrative comments, swallowed exceptions, hallucinated imports, dead code, and oversized functions. The tool scores changes from 0–100, runs in sub-second time, and requires no LLM in its runtime path, ensuring consistent, reproducible results.
Key quotes
· 4 pulledCatch the slop AI coding agents leave in your code.
The patterns Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and OpenCode leave behind: narrative comments above self-explanatory code, swallowed exceptions, as any casts, hallucinated imports, duplicated helpers, dead code, todo stubs, oversized functions.
Tests pass. Lint passes. The code rots anyway.
Sub-second. Deterministic — no LLM in the runtime path, same code in, same score out. MIT-licensed, free CLI.
