open-slopware：为使用 LLM/AI 的 FOSS 项目提供替代方案清单

Free/Open Source Software tainted by LLM/AI usage, along with an informed set of AI-free alternatives and last untainted commit (so you can fork if you'd like) should your ethical boundaries be crossed or your tolerance for risk be exceeded. Please note that alternatives do not have to have an Anti-AI policy, but if they do have an Anti-AI Policy, you'll see an badge next to it. We also recently added a couple of other merit badges, which you can learn more about under Positive Merit Badges. If an alternative is found to have LLM/AI usage, please submit a pull request to get the alternative removed and added as tainted with evidence.

This list is not a resource to be used for the harassment of other open-source developers. If you wish to advocate for a "No AI" Policy from another project, we ask that it be done respectfully and constructively (and do not mention this list).

For more information on why we think this list matters, please see out Why not LLMs? file.

Want to add, update, or remove a project listed below? Check out our Contributing Doc.

See a project on here that you love, and wish wasn't on here? Check out our Guide for Removal and/or No AI Request Template.

Any other questions? Please check out our FAQ, and if your question isn't answered there, please feel free to start a Discussion.

Definitions

Term	Definition
LLM	Large Language Model, a language model trained on vast amounts of text (often entire websites without the website owner's permission)
slop	Anything generated by AI, typically code, books, articles, or images.

Below are special definitions that are used for tagging purposes.

Tainted tags

The word "tainted" here is used to describe any project that falls under any of the following tags in this section. A project may have these tags removed if they follow our Guide for Removal, after which point they then qualify for the Positive Merit Badges, except in the case of CoC violations (see ).

Vibecoded

Asking an AI to write software for you (often without human review). Per Wikipedia:

In computer programming, vibe coding is a software development practice assisted by artificial intelligence (AI) such as by chatbots (programs that simulate conversation) or AI agents such as Codex or Claude Code. The software developer describes a project or task in a prompt to a large language model (LLM), which generates source code automatically. Vibe coding may involve accepting AI-generated code without reviewing the output thoroughly, instead relying on results and follow-up prompts to guide changes.

The term was coined by Andrej Karpathy (co-founder of OpenAI) in February 2025. A Vibecoder is a person who uses AI prompts to generate anything, typically code or images. It would therefore be appropriate to call Andrej Karpathy a vibecoder.

Sometimes people will refer to vibecoding as "agentic engineering". We will not be using that term in this repo, but that still counts for this tag's usage.

Evidence may be, but is not limited to:

blog post stating the project was vibecoded
link to readme stating that the project was vibecoded.
contributing/developer docs requiring the usage of AI

Permissive AI Policy

A policy, written or otherwise implied by maintainers' actions/statements, that permits the use of AI/LLMs in a way where LLM output is added into the project. Opening the door for others to use gen AI counts as a "Permissive AI Policy".

Evidence may be, but is not limited to:

an explicit AI policy (e.g. AI_POLICY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, developer docs) in the repo or something in the project's contributing guidelines or in their website's documentation that says that AI/LLMs are allowed
an LLM friendly AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, or other such LLM instruction files or folders.
core maintainers' blog or social media post about using AI/LLMs
LLM code being merged into the default branch of a project's code repository. (Must be merged to count; Open PRs do not count)

AI Functionality

This would include the ability to enable or disable an AI feature, such as an AI assistant or AI summary feature. This would also cover the case when a project depends on an AI program or library, such as an LLM SDK.

Evidence may be, but is not limited to:

a link to the docs explaining the AI Functionality
a blog post advertising the AI Functionality
a link to the default branch in a repo that shows where the AI Functionality is implemented

AI Code Reviews

An AI agent/bot is used to review pull requests, which makes slop acceptance more probable and maintainability more difficult, especially when human reviews are scarce.

Evidence may be, but is not limited to:

a link to an AI code review requested by a maintainer.
an AI code review CI workflow.
a PR where an AI code review seems to be automatically created by some sort of third party app

Gen AI 'Art'

AI "Art" is being used in a project. This is typically for banners, avatars, promotional material, and/or blog posts. This means they're using tools that steal art from visual artists.

Evidence may be, but is not limited to:

link to the place where the AI "art" is used

AI Sponsored

The project is sponsored directly by an AI company. An AI company is any company that advertises itself as pro-AI or develops an AI product itself. The obvious ones are Anthropic and OpenAI, however, all the big tech companies (e.g. Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Amazon) also count because they all have AI services and direct products as major offerings.

Evidence may be, but is not limited to:

Blog post disclosing AI funding
link to website that lists AI companies in sponsors list
README that says "Sponsored by "

AI Databroker Usage

The use of an AI company as a third party service for processing user data.

Evidence may be, but is not limited to:

Blog post talking about using AI for processing user data
Privacy policy listing an AI company as a third party service

AI In Issue Tracker

The use of an AI bot/agent for responding to Issues, Discussions, Forums etc related to a project's issue/bug tracking.

Evidence may be, but is not limited to:

Link to AI in an Issue, Bug report, Discussion etc. - must be related to the project's bug/issue tracking (e.g. dosu)

Condones LLM Ingestion

Condones the use of AI/LLMs to ingest the project's contents. This can be for "understanding the code better", "finding bugs/security issues/optimizations". This tag is to be used independently for projects that generally reject the use of AI in their code repositories, issue trackers, and sponsorships, but still encourage or permit users to use LLMs to ingest their code base. This is independent of a project's licensing. This tag is to be used for the maintainers' statements about, or reactions to, the usage of LLMs/AIs to ingest the repo.

The reason we still find this worthy of a tag is because it:

means that the LLM, often provided by a company with very little respect for copyright, will then save a copy of that open source repo for use in it's future outputs.
still encourages people to use LLMs and carves out a special situation in which they're still OK, but as this repo is against AI/LLMs for more than just "poor code quality" reasons, we still believe this is not a good course of action as it still promotes the use of inherently unethical tooling.

Evidence may be, but is not limited to:

An AI or Contribution policy that carves out a space for "using LLMs to understand the code" or "finding bugs"
Core maintainer using or accepting the use of AI for finding bugs or security issues

Soft Fork

Any alternative project that you see a next to is "soft forked" from an upstream tainted project. A soft fork means that the fork may still merge in commits from the tainted upstream project that it was forked from. Sometimes a soft fork is your only option for the sake of harm reduction, so we still allow these to be listed as alternatives, so long as soft fork itself still has an Anti-AI policy. We add the warning though, so you can choose your own risk appetite.

Bad CoC

This is not an AI related tag.

This tag means a project or parent org has violated our Code of Conduct. They can never be recommended as an alternative, even if they roll out an Anti-AI policy, as they are not fostering an inclusive environment. We are still willing to accept forks of these projects as alternatives in some select cases, but only if they have a comprehensive code of conduct that bans bigotry (even if it's a one contributor project) and an Anti-AI policy. We will not give specific evidence of what a given project has done to violate our CoC as that is not the primary purpose of this repo. Users are free to ask around in other spaces outside of this repo, but as always, do not mention this repo when doing so.

Neutral Tags

Currently only one tag falls into this category.

Request for Help

This means someone is asking for help with research. They would like it if you found the last known good version of a project or suggestions on alternatives for people to use. You can submit a pull request to add this info.

Positive Merit Badges

These are special tags that we refer to as "merit badges". They have a positive connotation and are only awarded to alternatives.

Anti-AI Policy

This is a special badge with a positive connotation. It certifies that a project listed as an alternative, has a Clear "No AI" policy. This means the project forbids the use of AI and LLMs and does not have any special carve outs where they've condoned their usage. These projects should always be preferred as all other alternative projects listed are considered to have a neutral stance on AI until they put out an official policy.

By "special carve outs", we mean that the project also does not fit any of our other tainted tags, including .

Slop-Free Fork

This is a very special badge with a positive connotation. To use this badge, the project must already meet all the requirements of and then also ensure that there is no slop in the code base. The maintainers should try to replace/remove all tainted commits. They must also ensure all dependencies, to the best of their ability, are untainted. There are some exceptions, such as the OS that your project runs on or the programming language that your project is written in. We will not judge that. There are also some exceptions if there's no literally no better library to use that doesn't have slop in it. We still appreciate the effort regardless!

Proof of Heart

This is a very special badge with a positive connotation. To use this badge, the project must already meet all the requirements of and then also ensure that there is no slop in the code base. If you previously had any LLM commits, you need to completely remove them (so it has to pass slop-scan). You must also ensure all dependencies, to the best of your ability, are untainted. There are some exceptions, such as the OS that your project runs on or the programming language that your project is written in. We will not judge that. There are also some exceptions if there's literally no better library to use that doesn't have slop in it. We still appreciate the effort regardless!

As this is our most prestigious merit badge, the project must also have a Code of Conduct that bans bigotry, even if this is not a self submission, and even if it's a repo with only one contributor.

Sibling Repos

This is a section for repos that are similar to this one either because they are also forks of the original upstream, or because they align with our goal of identifying and avoiding AI/LLM usage OR identifying/elevating projects that do NOT use AI/LLMs. These repos are not all maintained by the same people, but we may share some contributors and are generally kind FOSS neighbors. 💙

llm-afflicted-software offers a similar list to ours here, however in YAML file format for each category, making it more suitable to consumption via code (for instance writing a CLI, GUI, or TUI tool to consume it). They've also kindly reached out in the past and submitted Issues and PRs (e.g. #12, #22) to help us here.
forge.starlightnet.work/Team/No-AI/ which is the repo for this no-AI list that lists projects that have explicitly pledged not to use AI or have an explicit policy to not use AI.
slop-free-index is a list of software that has taken steps to reject AI in its development processes.
