Security scores are indicators to help you make informed decisions, not guarantees. Always review permissions before connecting any MCP server.

Permissions Found in Source Code

Found by scanning the linked source code. This listing connects to a hosted endpoint, so none of this runs on your machine: it describes what the server software does where it is hosted.

env_vars

Applies to the server that hosts this plugin, not to your machine.

file_system

Applies to the server that hosts this plugin, not to your machine.

HTTP Network Access

Connects to external APIs or services over the internet.

How to Connect

Remote Plugin

No local installation needed. Your AI client connects to the remote endpoint directly.

Add this to your MCP configuration to connect:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "com-sloppatterns-slop-patterns": {
      "url": "https://sloppatterns.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Slop Patterns

A public library of AI design anti-patterns: what they look like, why the tools produce them, and what to do instead. Live at sloppatterns.com.

  • License: MIT (LICENSE). Only the pattern library is here and MIT: patterns.json, the pattern text and sources, the site, and the MCP server in api/.
  • Scanner code is not open. The Slop Score scanner at sloppatterns.com/score (browser capture, live checks and grading) is a separate project and is not included in this repo.
  • The MCP server runs at https://sloppatterns.com/mcp. No account or key. See the "For agents" page on the site.
  • The research note, The Same Page, is in research/.

Maintained by Pavithra Lamahewa at Precious Studio. Suggest a pattern from the site, or open an issue.

Use it in your AI tools

Your coding agent calls check_design on the UI it writes and fixes what it finds before you see it.

  • Claude Code (plugin, MCP plus a skill):
    /plugin marketplace add pavithralamahewa/slop-patterns
    /plugin install slop-patterns@slop-patterns
    
  • Any MCP client: npx add-mcp https://sloppatterns.com/mcp, or add an HTTP server with that URL. It is in the official MCP Registry as com.sloppatterns/slop-patterns.
  • Cursor: add the server in Settings → MCP (type HTTP, URL above), then copy cursor/slop-patterns.mdc into .cursor/rules/.

Use the taxonomy

Every pattern has a stable code (for example A10) and a stable URL (https://sloppatterns.com/#gradient-text-headline). Codes never change meaning; when an entry is revised, its version and updated fields change.

  • All 272 patterns as data: taxonomy.json. Each entry says whether it is checked automatically (101 are; the scanner, the MCP server and the command line share 104 code rules, and 57 of them have passed a hand audit on whole pages) or needs a person.
  • Command line: npx slop-patterns check ./dist or npx slop-patterns scan example.com. See cli/.
  • One rule set: the scanner, the MCP server and the command line run the same rules.js, so they never disagree.
  • Cite it: see CITATION.cff. GitHub shows a "Cite this repository" button from it.
