Do you install house wrap before or after insulation?
Usually the wrap iss installed first. Rigid foam insulation is often installed outside the building wrap, and batt insulation is always installed inside the building wrap. This is because batt insulation is much more moisture absorbent than most rigid foam so needs to be protected from external moisture. So batt insulation will not be installed until after the building wrap is in place to protect it, and externally installed rigid foams are not fixed in place until after the wrap is in place because they are fixed over it.
