humanities-superpowers

humanities-superpowers is a cursor rule for Cursor from icerain-cmd/humanities-superpowers. It costs 0 tokens per session (104 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of working rules for humanities research and academic writing. The humanities study subjects such as history, literature, languages, philosophy, and culture.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when researching or writing humanities work, choosing supporting research methods, combining existing guidance, and checking that a manuscript is ready to submit.
Why use it?
It helps keep research and scholarly writing careful by avoiding made-up sources, quotations, page numbers, and publication details. It also preserves uncertainty when the evidence is incomplete.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

humanities-superpowers scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

For humanities research tasks, inspect skills/using-humanities-superpowers/SKILL.md, select the smallest sufficient skill set, and follow each selected skill's stop signals and completion criteria. Never invent citations, quotations, page numbers, publication data, or source contents. Preserve unresolved uncertainty. Use verifying-before-submission before claiming a manuscript is final or submission-ready.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
