Every third post in HN has this same complaint comment. Everybody knows.

It's better that everyone is loud about it then everyone giving up and being silently irritated. At least if people complain it's possible to read the room

Tbh, I still wonder why people even bother releasing such tools that were shitted out by an LLM in an hour or two, these are basically the modern equivalent of a hastily cobbled together 10-liner shell script (still useful, but not something you'd ever put up as its own Github project).

Everybody else can write such tools now by themselves in at most an hour, and they get a tool that's more personalized to their tastes. And why have a readme at all when it's just LLM mumbo-jumbo - that sort of mumbo-jumbo is written for LLMs to consume, not humans.

I prefer when I see other comments to confirm or infirm my opinion.

Awesome!

I think these repo owners should be required to film themselves reading out their Claudemade readmes with a straight face.

Every honest caveat. Every seam. Every "Frames lie, so the walk prunes hard".

I appreciate it when people say something is slop. Saves me from wasting my time looking at it.

How many slop ideas have come to the front page, never to be heard from again because the execution isn’t actually any good? I’m guessing most of them.

Clearly the people writing these annoying articles don't know.

I wish they'd just use Astra instead. It doesn't write this awful prose.

And every comment on HN calling out vibe-coded slop has this same complaint comment in turn. OP has an actual complaint, your complaint is just "stop complaining".
