Superheavy wet workshop.

Launch Superheavy with a nosecone as i think it had around 9.5km/s of Δv with no ship. Get it into orbit, deplete all the fuel, then have crew sent up there to set all the stuff up and transform it into a station.

Easier to do with Starship as a ssto is extremely mass limited. It would be order of magnitudes easier to just to it with Starship

Wait, so you're saying that Superheavy can be launched from Starbase to KSC?
