 ## Why it exists
 
-An AI draft can be grammatically sound and still read like workslop. In a compatible AI assistant, Zero Slop flags stock phrasing and stiff patterns, then guides the edit. The writing score finds patterns worth reviewing; it cannot tell who wrote the text.

 The CLI sends a file to the hosted editor without changing the file on disk:
 
 ```sh
-npx --yes zero-slop@2.12.8 deslop draft.md --genre professional
+npx --yes zero-slop@2.12.10 deslop draft.md --genre professional
 ```
 
 Use `-` for stdin and `--json` for structured output. `--require-approved` prints the result but exits nonzero when review is needed. Requires Node.js 22+; offline `score` also needs Python 3. [CLI options and privacy](docs/cli.md).

 description: Edit drafts into natural prose, inspect AI-sounding patterns, or review how a specified audience might respond passage by passage. Zero Slop runs inside the user's existing AI assistant with local tools that protect source details. Use for humanizing or de-slopping writing, polishing outward-facing prose, social drafts, final editorial checks, or an explicit simulated reader review. Preserve facts, voice and format; reader simulations are hypotheses, not human feedback.
