DNA Workbench
Prompt stem packs for Cursor/Claude. Baseline quality: checklist + artifact paths + failure modes, dense guidelines, 2–3 examples per stem.
Install DNA first (no cloning)
Ask Cursor, a Cloud Agent, or Claude to install @superhumaan/dna-by-humaan from npm, or run npx @superhumaan/dna-by-humaan init -y yourself. Stems install on npx @superhumaan/dna-by-humaan doctor.
127 stem packs — each includes:
.DNA/stems/<id>/ on npx @superhumaan/dna-by-humaan doctorEach stem is a copy-paste prompt plus guidelines, expectations, context, and examples — installed to .DNA/stems/ so the AI sticks to the workflow.
127
Stem packs
npx dna doctor installs all stems
