AISlop, a CLI tool for identifying 'code smells' in AI-generated code.

Catches specific patterns (e.g., empty catch blocks, useless comments, duplicated helpers, dead code) in AI-generated code that pass syntax checks and tests but indicate poor quality. Operates locally without code transfer.

The proliferation of AI code generation tools introduces new quality control challenges. AISlop directly addresses the emerging developer pain point of 'AI-generated code smells' – syntactically correct but functionally suboptimal or inefficient code. This tool is critical for maintaining code qu...
