humind vs Verdaccio

humind turns household survey data into Multi-Sector Needs Index severity scores across WASH, Protection, SNFI, Food Security, Education and Health. Its version line tracks the annual MSNI framework revision — 2024.x, 2025.x, 2026.x — with narrow correctness patches between rollouts. v2026.2.0 is the current rollout and the most structural one in the visible history: water-quantity scoring moved out into a new mandatory prerequisite, food-security severity now comes from a different matrix, and the impactR4PHU runtime dependency is gone.

Two things move together. The framework content is revised yearly — indicators added, weights corrected, instruments swapped — and the package keeps absorbing pipeline it used to delegate, most visibly by vendoring add_fcs(), add_hhs(), add_rcsi(), add_lcsi() and add_fcm_phase() locally rather than importing them. Each rollout is explicitly breaking and the release notes have grown per-function 'Action:' instructions, which reads as maintainers who expect every downstream dashboard to need rewiring on the same annual clock.

The 2025 line settled into narrow patches immediately after its rollout — 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 fixed a separator argument, a schema rename and a shelter misclassification rather than adding indicators. Expect the 2026 line to do the same: correctness fixes against the new WASH, FCLCM and shelter-damage logic before any further framework change.
