Aislop is a CLI tool that detects and auto-fixes code smells commonly introduced by AI coding agents, such as narrative comments, hallucinated imports, and dead code. It provides a deterministic, LLM-free analysis across 7 languages with 40+ rules, offering a unified score and CI integration. Its innovative combination of AI-specific pattern detection with traditional linting and the ability to hand off issues back to agents makes it uniquely practical for modern AI-assisted development workflows.

Target audience: backend devs, frontend devs, devops
