Plan federal digital service user flows, touchpoints, and requirements before generating code.

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

# Skill: Federal Service Blueprint

Plan a federal digital service by mapping user journeys, identifying touchpoints, and documenting technical and compliance requirements before generating code.

## When to Use

- Starting a new federal digital service from scratch
- Planning a major redesign or feature addition
- User asks "plan a service" or "what do I need to build?"
- Before using other frontend skills (uswds-prototype, form-flow, etc.)

## Prerequisites

- Basic understanding of the service purpose
- Knowledge of target user groups
- Awareness of any regulatory or compliance requirements

## Procedure

### Step 1: Define Service Overview

Document the basics:

- [ ] **Service name** — What is this service called?
- [ ] **Purpose** — What problem does it solve?
- [ ] **Target users** — Who will use this service?
- [ ] **Primary goal** — What should users accomplish?
- [ ] **Success metrics** — How will we measure success?

### Step 2: Map User Journey

Identify the steps users take:

1. **Awareness** — How do users learn about the service?
2. **Entry** — Where do users start?
3. **Authentication** (if needed) — How do users prove identity?

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add gsa-tts/agentic-coding-patterns/federal-service-blueprint@sha256:7aac15f6412a1a43

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
