One thing to look at

  • 4 stars4 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Scrub AI tells from any Threads post or thread draft, or audit a finished draft against the 2026 Threads checklist. Strips em dashes, AI vocabulary (leverage, fundamentally, delve, harness), rule-of-three lists, and uniform post rhythm, then adds human fingerprints. Includes a --mode audit pre-publish check (500-char fit, hook, one-hashtag cap, link placement, warm tone). Triggers on humanize, de-AI Threads post, audit before posting. Not for writing from scratch (use threads-post-writer).

Threads Humanizer

Rewrites any Threads post or thread to remove AI tells, and audits a finished draft against the 2026 Threads ranking checklist. Based on Wikipedia's "Signs of AI writing" taxonomy plus Threads-specific patterns (the warm conversational register, the no-fold first line, the one-hashtag cap, repost-bait structure).

When to use

  • Before publishing any AI-drafted post or thread (rewrite mode)
  • Pre-publish review of a finished draft (audit mode, see sub-skills/post-audit.md)
  • When a draft feels off and you cannot pinpoint why

Input

Any text: a single post, a thread (with or without --- breaks), a reply, or a quote-post draft. Optional: target voice samples (the user's past posts).

Output

  • Rewritten text with AI tells removed
  • A diff showing what changed and why
  • Per-post char count (flagging anything over 500)
  • Confidence: "human", "mixed", "AI-likely"

Modes

# Default: scrub AI tells and fix Threads-format issues
threads-humanizer <text>

# Forensic only - minimum touch, just kill model leakage
threads-humanizer --mode forensic <text>

# Audit - detection-only pass-fail review, no rewrite
# Runs the 2026 Threads checklist: 500-char fit, first-line hook, one-hashtag
# cap, emoji limit, link placement, thread tap-through, warm tone, goal clarity.
# Returns Blockers + Warnings + suggested fixes. See sub-skills/post-audit.md.
threads-humanizer --mode audit <text>

The three passes

Pass 1 - SCRUB (delete or replace)

Apply the tiered catalogs in references/scrub-rules.md:

  • Forensic (always on): real model leakage no human types. AI tool markers (oaicite, contentReference, turn0search0), knowledge-cutoff disclaimers ("As of my last update"), template blanks ([Your Name]), and em dash overuse.
  • Strict (default on): bad Threads style regardless of origin. Vocabulary swaps (leverage -> use, delve -> look, harness -> use, foster -> build), filler adverbs (fundamentally, essentially, ultimately), phrase cleanups ("in today's fast-paced world", "game-changer", "deep dive"), and dead closers ("what do you think?").

Pass 2 - BREAK (force burstiness)

  • Vary post length across a thread. If every post is 400-450 chars, break at least one into a short punch post.
  • Add a sentence fragment where it fits ("Every time.").
  • Break perfect parallel structures with one asymmetric line.

Pass 3 - ADD (human fingerprints)

Require where the content allows:

  • 1 specific number (replace "many", "a lot", "massive")
  • 1 named entity (real person, company, tool)
  • the warm, lowercase-casual register if the voice calls for it
  • 1 first-person concrete detail

If the input lacks these, ask the user for a number or anecdote. Do not fabricate.

Non-negotiable rules

Global voice rules: see root SKILL.md Voice rules. Additional skill-specific rules:

  • Scrubbing is always in scope. When asked to humanize, de-AI, finalize, or publish a post or thread, run at least the forensic + strict passes before it ships. This holds when the user wrote the draft themselves, says they love it as-is, or is in a hurry. Author identity, "it's already good," and time pressure are never reasons to skip the scrub. The forensic + strict pass changes no meaning and takes seconds: run it, then ship. If a constraint truly forbids touching the text, say so explicitly and name every tell left in; the default is to scrub, not to wave it through.
  • Preserve the user's actual claim and meaning. "Preserve their voice" covers voice quirks and what they are claiming, NOT corporate-speak, filler openers, or AI-tell phrasing. Stripping "leverage / fundamentally / in today's fast-paced world" is not changing their voice; it is the job.
  • Never introduce facts that were not in the input. If a number is missing, ask.
  • Keep the user's voice quirks (lowercase starts, .. soft pauses).
  • Respect the container: do not silently merge a thread into one post or split a single post into a thread without flagging it.
  • Warm up a transplanted X dunk into a Threads-native invitation to talk.

Threads-specific tells this skill catches

  • A first line that needs the second line to make sense (the feed truncates with "more").
  • A "post" that is 540 chars and needs a trim or a thread.
  • 2+ hashtags (Threads rejects the second), or hashtags mid-sentence.
  • An external link in post 1 of a thread meant to reach.
  • A thread of identical-length posts (machine rhythm).
  • ALL CAPS openers reaching for intensity.
  • "A thread:" with no actual promise in the words.
  • A cold, combative, newsy X voice that reads as out of place on Threads.
