Map the needs of the people you're building or exploring for, independently of solutions, using Allen's User Needs Mapping methodology. Identifies underserved needs that feed into the Opportunity Solution Tree.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# User Needs Mapping Map what users need independently of any particular solution. Discover needs through research, not assumption. Source: Rich Allen (User Needs Mapping), connected to Wardley Mapping and Team Topologies. ## Preflight: Read target canvas file(s) before any Write/Edit **Hard rule.** Before issuing `Write` or `Edit` against any `.claude/canvas/*.yml`, use the **Read tool** on that file in this session. Claude Code's Read-before-Write check requires the `Read` tool specifically — `cat`/`head`/`grep` via Bash do NOT satisfy it. **Edit vs Write — different cost profiles** (verified 2026-05-14): - **`Edit`** (exact-string replacement): `Read` with `limit: 1` satisfies the check at ~50 tokens. State-tracking is per-file, not per-byte — subsequent `Edit` calls work anywhere in the file. Use this for partial updates against large canvas files (e.g., `purpose.yml` at 800+ lines). - **`Write`** (full replacement): do a **full Read** first. Write obliterates the file; you should see what you're about to replace. The `limit:1` shortcut is *not* appropriate here. …

How to install
mdr add haabe/mycelium/user-needs-map@sha256:deeac92a7983a8d1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.fc240ea, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
