DNA Workbench
Copy-paste prompt stem packs for Cursor. Each stem includes guidelines, expectations, and context so the AI sticks to the workflow.
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.
59 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.
59
Stem packs
npx dna doctor installs all stems
Copy a prompt → paste in Cursor → AI reads stem guidelines
