The Canon
The canon is the methodology written as theses — what a Job is, what value is, how segmentation, behavior change, the Job Graph, and the Riskiest Assumption Test work — plus the main algorithm itself. These are the foundations the algorithm runs on: read the steps without them and they read like an empty checklist.
This public canon is the foundation, not the whole methodology — about 25% of it. The rest — the per-question algorithms, the full mechanics catalog, the company rollout playbooks — keeps appearing here over time.
The canon is large and you don't have to read it in order. For the fastest path, read these four key-theses files first, in order — they're the keys to everything else. Then read the main algorithm.
The foundational theses of Advanced Jobs To Be Done and Next Move Theory — what a Job is, what value is, how segmentation, behavior change, the Job Graph, and the Riskiest Assumption Test work — plus the main algorithm itself. About 25% of the full methodology.
New theses and chapters keep appearing here over time.
Read the four key-theses files above first, in order — they give you the whole frame. After that you don't need to go top to bottom: jump to whichever cluster matches your problem. The canon is written as interlinked theses, so following the links is a valid way through. You can also read the open canon and run the Claude Code skills on GitHub.
