in the same vein as AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and a fuckton of other repo spam, I present AAA-NO-SLOP.md, a file for humans viewing repositories that signals two things:

  • this repository doesn’t accept LLM contributions of any kind
  • every other LLM instruction in this repository (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and all the rest) is poisoned and designed to deter LLM use

enjoy!

for any guests who stumble upon this thread: no I’m not entertaining discussion on why I’m doing this or how I shouldn’t do it

      Probably so that it shows up at the top of an alphabetized file list; for easy visibility. It reminded me of how some companies would name themselves to show up first in the phone book.

      Probably so that it’s one of the first files listed when looking at the contents of a repo alphabetically

            possibly! I figured capital-A was most likely to sort first across the wide variety of code forges and operating systems so I went with that, but better names are possible
