Show HN: Stupify – anti-slop code review for AI agents

Stupify is an anti-slop code review tool designed for AI agents, aiming to detect and prevent low-quality or careless AI-generated code ("slop") from being merged.

Background

- Stupify is an open-source tool that reviews AI-generated code and flags "slop" — bloated, overengineered, or unnecessarily complex code that AI models often produce when they lack context or try to be "helpful." - It provides automated, real-time feedback (via GitHub comments) aimed at keeping AI agents' output concise, consistent, and maintainable without needing a human reviewer to catch every bad habit. - Context: AI coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor) are widely used but frequently generate verbose or over-abstracted code. This has led to a backlash among developers who find the output hard to maintain — hence tools like Stupify that police AI-generated code quality.
