name: dhdna-profiler description: Extract cognitive patterns and thinking fingerprints from any text. Use this skill when the user wants to analyze how someone thinks, understand cognitive style, profile writing or speech patterns, compare thinking styles between people, asks "what's my thinking style", "analyze how this person reasons", "cognitive profile", "thinking pattern", "DHDNA", "digital DNA", or wants to understand the mind behind any text. Also trigger when the user provides text and wants deeper insight into the author's reasoning patterns, decision-making style, or cognitive signature. allowed-tools: Read Write license: MIT license metadata: version: "1.1" skill-author: AHK Strategies (ashrafkahoush-ux)

DHDNA Profiler — Cognitive Pattern Extraction

A structured system for extracting the cognitive fingerprint of any text's author. Based on the Digital Human DNA (DHDNA) framework — the theory that every mind has a unique signature pattern expressed through how it reasons, decides, values, and communicates.

Core Concept

Just as biological DNA encodes physical identity through base pairs, Digital Human DNA encodes cognitive identity through thinking patterns. Every person's combination of analytical depth, creative range, emotional processing, strategic thinking, and ethical reasoning creates a unique cognitive signature — as distinctive as a fingerprint.

The profiler doesn't judge thinking as "good" or "bad." It maps the topology of how a mind works.

The 12 Cognitive Dimensions

When profiling text, score each dimension on a 1–10 scale based on evidence in the text:

The 6 Tension Pairs

Dimensions exist in tension — high scores on one often correlate with lower scores on its pair. These tensions ARE the cognitive signature:

How to Profile

Phase 1 — Evidence Collection

Read the text carefully. For each dimension, identify specific textual evidence:

• Direct quotes that demonstrate the dimension
• Structural patterns (how arguments are built)
• What's present AND what's absent (gaps reveal as much as content)
• Recurring patterns across multiple passages

Phase 2 — Scoring

For each of the 12 dimensions:

1. Score 1-10 based on evidence
2. Cite the strongest textual evidence for that score
3. Flag confidence level: HIGH (multiple clear signals), MEDIUM (some signals), LOW (inferred)

Phase 3 — Pattern Synthesis

After scoring, identify:

Dominant Pattern: The 2-3 highest-scoring dimensions — this is the mind's "home base"

Shadow Pattern: The 2-3 lowest-scoring dimensions — this is where the mind doesn't naturally go

Signature Tensions: Which tension pairs show the widest gap? These define the cognitive style more than any individual score.

Reasoning Topology: How does the mind move through ideas?

• Linear (A → B → C → conclusion)
• Spiral (approaches the same idea from multiple angles, each time deeper)
• Web (connects disparate domains into synthesis)
• Dialectic (thesis → antithesis → synthesis)
• Fractal (same pattern at micro and macro levels)

Decision Fingerprint: When facing choices, does this mind:

• Analyze first, then decide? (Analytical-dominant)
• Feel first, then rationalize? (Emotional-dominant)
• Envision the outcome first, then work backward? (Strategic-dominant)
• Question the question itself? (Metacognitive-dominant)

Phase 4 — Profile Output

Present the profile as:

Comparison Mode

When the user provides two or more texts from different authors, produce individual profiles and then a comparison synthesis:

• Where do the minds converge? (shared high dimensions)
• Where do they diverge? (opposing scores on the same dimension)
• Which tension pairs would create productive disagreement?
• If these minds were in a room together, what would the conversation look like?

Self-Profile Mode

If the user asks to profile their own thinking (using the conversation history as text), be transparent:

• Ask before reading back through the conversation. Say what you intend to use as source material and wait for an answer. Prior turns were written for a different purpose, and mining them for psychological inference is not something to do silently.
• Score based on the conversation so far
• Acknowledge that conversational text may not represent the full range
• Note that people often think differently when writing for an AI vs. writing for humans
• Offer to re-profile if the user provides other writing samples

Consent and Scope

This skill infers personal cognitive and psychological attributes. That is a different thing from summarizing a document, and the boundaries matter:

• Profile the text the user brings you for the current request. Do not go looking for more material about the same author — other files, earlier sessions, or anything you happened to read.
• A profile of a third party is speculative and must say so. When the author is someone who is not in the conversation and has not agreed to be analyzed — a colleague from a forwarded email, a candidate from an application, an author from a paper — label the output as an inference from one text sample, not a finding about that person.
• Decline profiling that feeds a consequential decision about someone. Hiring, promotion, admission, clinical, disciplinary, or credit decisions are out of bounds; this framework has no validation supporting that use, and a 1–10 cognitive score reads as far more authoritative than it is.
• Everything stays local to the session. Profiles are not written anywhere the user did not ask for and are not sent to any service.

What This Is NOT

• Not a personality test (MBTI, Big Five, etc.) — those measure behavioral tendencies, DHDNA measures cognitive architecture
• Not a judgment of intelligence — a chess grandmaster and a poet may score very differently but both demonstrate profound cognitive capability
• Not static — a person's DHDNA evolves as they learn, experience, and grow. A profile is a snapshot, not a destiny.
