Editor plugin (LSP)

slop-chop can run as a Language Server, so any editor that speaks LSP can flag and chop slop as you write. Tells show up as diagnostics, and the fix pass is offered two ways: a "Chop the slop" code action, and document formatting, so format-on-save chops the file. It uses the same profile, presets, and voice as the command line.

Run it

slop-chop lsp

It speaks the protocol on stdin and stdout. Point your editor's LSP client at that command for Markdown, plain text, and commit messages. Add --preset cleaver for the aggressive swaps, or --voice path.json for a specific voice. A ~/.slop-chop/voice.json is picked up on its own.

JetBrains IDEs

Install the slop-chop plugin from the JetBrains Marketplace: in IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, and the rest, open Settings, Plugins, Marketplace, and search slop-chop. It wires the language server for you, launching slop-chop lsp over Markdown and plain text, so tells show as inspections and a code action chops the file. You still need the slop-chop binary on your PATH. To wire it by hand instead, install the LSP4IJ plugin and register a server that runs slop-chop lsp.

Neovim

With the built-in client:

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("FileType", {
  pattern = { "markdown", "text", "gitcommit" },
  callback = function()
    vim.lsp.start({
      name = "slop-chop",
      cmd = { "slop-chop", "lsp", "--preset", "cleaver" },
      root_dir = vim.fn.getcwd(),
    })
  end,
})

Diagnostics appear inline. Run vim.lsp.buf.code_action for "Chop the slop", or vim.lsp.buf.format to chop the whole file.

Helix

In languages.toml:

[language-server.slop-chop]
command = "slop-chop"
args = ["lsp", "--preset", "cleaver"]

[[language]]
name = "markdown"
language-servers = ["slop-chop"]

VS Code

A ready-made extension lives in the repo under vscode/. It runs the binary directly: diagnostics as you type, a "Chop the slop" command, and a document formatter so format-on-save chops the file. Its README covers the install. Rolling your own client instead works too: point it at slop-chop lsp with a document selector for markdown, plaintext, and git-commit.

What it provides

• Diagnostics for every tell, with the rule name and the swap it would make.
• Code action "Chop the slop" to rewrite the whole document.
• Formatting that chops on demand or on save.
