How to use the Seedance Anti-Slop Prompt Editor agent skill

Updated · written with AI from the project's own documentation and checked against our catalogue data

The Seedance Anti-Slop Prompt Editor is an agent skill, a folder with a SKILL.md instruction file that an AI agent loads when it sees a matching request. This guide explains what the seedance-antislop skill makes the agent do, how to install it, how to ask for help with natural requests, and what to watch for. By the end you will be able to have a Seedance 2.0 text prompt reviewed and tightened before you spend generation credits.

Quick start

  1. 1Download the ZIP. Get the seedance-antislop ZIP from this page and unzip it on your computer.
  2. 2Place the skill folder. Move the folder into ~/.claude/skills/ for all projects, or into a project's .claude/skills/ folder for one project.
  3. 3Or upload in the Claude apps. In the Claude apps, open Settings → Capabilities → Skills and upload the skill.
  4. 4Write your Seedance 2.0 prompt. Draft the prompt text you want reviewed, with any exact dialogue and fixed details included.
  5. 5Ask for a review. Use a plain request that mentions Seedance 2.0 and the kind of problem you want checked.
  6. 6Check the open decisions. Read which production choices the agent flagged and decide which to keep, change or leave to the agent.
  7. 7Generate in your own tool. Paste the revised prompt into your Seedance 2.0 workflow yourself, since the skill does not call the video service.

What the seedance-antislop skill does

When you ask for help with a text prompt for the Seedance 2.0 AI video generator, the skill tells the agent to review the wording for generic AI filler, hollow superlatives, vague cinematic language, bloated adjectives and weak verbs. It then points out production decisions the prompt has left open and suggests more specific phrasing.

The skill is built to keep your intent. It is meant to preserve your intended mood, style, medium and exact dialogue, and it says useful genre or mood words should not be stripped. It only edits prompt text. It does not generate a video.

  • Flags filler and hollow superlatives
  • Flags vague cinematic language and weak verbs
  • Points out unresolved production decisions
  • Suggests clearer phrasing while keeping mood, style and dialogue
  • Says when a requested output resolution cannot be guaranteed by prompt text alone, rather than quietly changing settings

Install the seedance-antislop skill

Download the ZIP from this page and unzip it. The skill is a single file, SKILL.md. To make it available across your projects, place the unzipped skill folder in ~/.claude/skills/. To limit it to one project, place it in that project's .claude/skills/ folder.

If you use the Claude apps instead, you can upload the skill under Settings → Capabilities → Skills.

  • Personal use: ~/.claude/skills/
  • Single project: the .claude/skills/ folder inside that project
  • Claude apps: Settings → Capabilities → Skills, then upload

Trigger the skill with natural requests

You do not need a special command. The skill's description says it should be used when a Seedance 2.0 prompt contains generic filler, hollow superlatives, vague cinematic language, bloated adjectives, weak verbs, or needs sharper production-specific wording. Ask for that kind of help in plain language and mention Seedance 2.0 so the agent knows which guidance applies.

The skill is marked user-invocable in its file, so you can also refer to it directly by its name, seedance-antislop.

  • Review this Seedance 2.0 prompt for filler and weak verbs: [paste prompt]
  • Tighten the wording of my Seedance 2.0 prompt but keep the noir mood and the dialogue exactly as written
  • Before I generate, check my Seedance 2.0 prompt for unresolved decisions like camera and lighting
  • Use seedance-antislop to rewrite this prompt for a product spot

Get useful results from the review

The skill works best when you already know what you want. It is designed to clarify wording that hides an open decision, not to invent a creative direction. Tell the agent what must stay fixed, such as exact dialogue, reference names or a requested resolution, and say whether you want the revised prompt only or a short explanation of the edits.

The skill also states that a locked shot can suit an energetic scene, and that words like professional do not force a clean studio look. If you want a word-by-word removal table, ask for it; the skill provides one only when requested or needed.

  • State your creative intent and any fixed details first
  • Say if you have delegated creative choices to the agent
  • Ask for a specific output format if you need one

It also refers to other files, including the Director's Read, an anti-slop lexicon and vocabulary tables, that are not included in the reviewed material.

Frequently asked questions

Is the seedance-antislop skill free?

The skill is released under the MIT licence, as stated in its file. The reviewed material does not describe any price, so check the source page for any other terms.

What do I need to use it?

The skill is a Markdown instruction file, and the reviewed material describes no software installation. You need an agent environment that loads skills, such as Claude with skills in ~/.claude/skills/ or the Claude apps under Settings → Capabilities → Skills.

Does it generate Seedance 2.0 videos?

No. The skill only edits prompt text and does not call the video service. You paste the revised prompt into your own Seedance 2.0 workflow to generate anything.

Can it be used for other video tools like Sora or Runway?

The guidance is specific to Seedance 2.0, so the skill is not intended for prompts for other video tools. Use it only for Seedance 2.0 prompts.

Why does the skill say it can't guarantee resolution?

The skill states that prompt text alone does not guarantee a requested output resolution. When support is unknown or unavailable, it reports the gap and offers an explicit option instead of silently lowering the target.

Will the skill remove words like noir or cinematic?

Not on purpose. The skill says to keep useful genre, mood and style language that describes your chosen look, and it does not strip words where they are the point of the prompt.
