+# Changelog
+
+## 0.1.0 — initial release
+
+First public release. 18 rules across 4 categories, scored 0–100 (A–F).
+
+### Rules
+- **Bloat**: `padding-comments`, `excessive-jsdoc`, `commented-out-code`
+- **Wasted runtime**: `unnecessary-async`, `redundant-await`, `useless-try-catch`, `redundant-error-rethrow`, `redundant-boolean-cast`, `trivial-arrow-wrapper`, `return-undefined`, `const-string-concat`
+- **Premature abstraction**: `future-proof-naming`, `single-method-class`
+- **Type laziness / dead code**: `explicit-any`, `dead-imports`, `over-defensive-null-check`, `always-true-conditional`, `else-after-return`
+
+### CLI
+- `slopfighter scan [path]` — human or JSON report
+- `slopfighter score [path]` — number only, CI-friendly
+- `slopfighter fix [path] --safe` — auto-fix unambiguous findings
+- `slopfighter install` — drop a skill into Claude Code / Cursor / AGENTS.md
+
+### Tested
+- 103 unit + integration tests
+- Validated against 30 trending TypeScript repos created Feb–May 2026
+- Cross-platform: Linux, macOS, Windows; Node 18/20/22
+
+### Known limitations
+- JS/TS only (Python, Go, Rust on the roadmap via tree-sitter)
+- No type-aware mode — `--strict` flag is reserved for future opt-in type-checker path
+- Some rules use heuristics, not full semantic analysis; FP-rate ~5–15% per rule

+  42:10  warn  Comment "Get user name" just restates "getUserName"  (padding-comments) [fixable]

+
+slop score: 47/100 (D) [█████████░░░░░░░░░░░]
+errors: 0  warns: 9  infos: 4
+```
+
+## Why this exists
+
+We scanned **29 trending TypeScript repos** created between February and May 2026 — 32,473 files, 79,733 findings, 15 minutes.
+
+- **Average score: 39/100 (F).** 17 of 29 repos failed.
+- **78% of all slop is three patterns:** commented-out code blocks (31.8%), `async` functions with no `await` (25.5%), explicit `any` (21.0%).
+- Worst offender: a 54k-star Claude orchestration repo at **4.93 findings per file**.
+- Cleanest: a markdown-based skill repo with **0**.

+Full report → [`bench/report.md`](bench/report.md) · Interactive visualization → [`bench/index.html`](bench/index.html) (open locally or enable GitHub Pages → `https://wemdio2.github.io/slopfighter/bench/`). Reproducible: `node bench/run.mjs && node bench/visualize.mjs`.
+
+## Install
+
+### As a CLI
+
+```bash
+npx slopfighter scan .                  # scan current dir
+npx slopfighter scan src/foo.ts         # scan one file
+npx slopfighter score . --json          # CI-friendly score only
+npx slopfighter fix . --safe            # apply unambiguous auto-fixes
+```
+
+Exit code 0 if `score >= 60`, else 1 — so `npx slopfighter score .` works as a CI gate.
+
+### As an AI agent skill
+
+```bash
+npx slopfighter install                 # auto-detect .claude/.cursor/AGENTS.md, install where present
+npx slopfighter install --force         # install into all targets
+npx slopfighter install --only claude   # only Claude Code skill
+```
+
+This drops a `SKILL.md` into `.claude/skills/slopfighter/`, a slash command into `.cursor/commands/slopfighter.md`, and a guarded section into `AGENTS.md`. After install, your agent runs slopfighter automatically after each edit batch and surfaces top findings.
+
+### As a GitHub Action
+
+Copy [`.github/workflows/slopfighter.yml`](.github/workflows/slopfighter.yml) into your repo. On every PR, a bot will comment with the score and top issues. Free for public repos.
+
+## The rules
+
+| Rule | Severity | Catches |
+|---|---|---|
+| `padding-comments` | warn | `// Get user name` over `getUserName()` |
+| `useless-try-catch` | warn | `catch (e) { throw e }` or log-then-rethrow |
+| `dead-imports` | warn | Imported names never referenced |
+| `explicit-any` | warn | `: any` annotations |
+| `future-proof-naming` | warn | `XManager`/`XHelper`/`XProvider` class with one method |
+| `commented-out-code` | warn | 2+ consecutive lines of commented code |
+| `unnecessary-async` | info | `async` function with no `await` |
+| `trivial-arrow-wrapper` | info | `(x) => fn(x)` instead of `fn` |
+| `redundant-await` | info | `return await x` outside try/catch |
+| `return-undefined` | info | `return undefined` (= `return`) |
+| `redundant-error-rethrow` | warn | `throw new Error(err.message)` (strips stack) |
+| `excessive-jsdoc` | info | 6+ line JSDoc over a 1–3 line body |
+| `over-defensive-null-check` | info | `x !== null && x !== undefined && x` |
+| `always-true-conditional` | warn | `if (true)` / `if (x === x)` |
+| `single-method-class` | info | Class with one `this`-free method |
+| `else-after-return` | info | `else` after a returning `if` |
+| `redundant-boolean-cast` | info | `!!x` / `Boolean(x)` in boolean context |
+| `const-string-concat` | info | `"a" + "b"` (merge or use a template) |
+
+Customize: `--rules a,b,c` (run only listed), `--ignore <substr>` (skip matching paths, repeatable).
+
+## What this is NOT
+
+- Not a security scanner. Use Semgrep/Snyk for that.
+- Not a type checker. Use `tsc --noEmit`.
+- Not a formatter. Use Prettier/Biome.
+- Not a semantic analyzer. It won't tell you your code is wrong, only that it's bloated.
+
+The rules are heuristic. False-positive rate is ~5–15% per rule depending on pattern. The point isn't perfection — it's reducing the structural noise that AI-generated code accumulates so reviewers can focus on logic.
+
+## How it works (under the hood)
+
+We parse files with TypeScript's compiler API into an AST, then walk the tree applying 18 rule functions. A few rules (e.g. `commented-out-code`) are line-based; the rest are structural. No type checker is loaded, which keeps it ~10–100× faster than type-aware linters at the cost of some precision.
+
+Score: `100 * exp(-perFilePenalty / 3)`, where penalty weights `error: 5, warn: 2, info: 1`. Per-file normalization means a clean 2000-file repo isn't punished by volume.
+
+## Bench
+
+```bash
+git clone <this-repo> && cd slopfighter && npm install
+node bench/run.mjs
+cat bench/report.md
+```
+
+Takes 15–30 min cold (clones 30 repos), 30 sec cached. Skip individual repos by editing `bench/repos.txt`.
+
+## Contributing
+
+PRs welcome — especially new rules. Each rule lives in `src/rules/<id>.mjs` and exports `{ id, severity, description, check(ctx) }`. Add 2+ positive and 2+ negative test cases to `test/unit-rules.mjs`. The full test suite is `npm test`.
+
+Rule ideas we'd love but haven't built yet: `bloated-tests` (mocks without assertions), `magic-numbers`, `nested-ternary-pyramid`, Python/Go via tree-sitter, type-aware mode (`--strict`).
