fix(6872): a verdict or write-path stamp on a vanished shape revives its row instead of inserting a duplicate

classify_shapes(repo=...) and the write-path hook looked only at live rows,
so a shape whose row had vanished got a second provisional row under the
same (project, repo, path, symbol, kind). The unique constraint refused it,
and the whole classify batch was lost as a tool error.

provisional_row() now finds the row under that identity, vanished or not.
A vanished row is revived with a reappeared event and keeps its judgment.
A new row is inserted inside a savepoint, so a concurrent insert of the
same identity falls back to that row instead of failing the transaction.

+                    GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+                       Version 3, 19 November 2007
+
+ Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/>
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+                            Preamble
+
+  The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
+cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
+
+  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
+our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
+share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+software for all its users.
+
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
+with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
+you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
+and/or modify the software.
+
+  A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
+improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
+receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
+incorporate.  Many developers of free software are heartened and
+encouraged by the resulting cooperation.  However, in the case of
+software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
+The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
+letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
+source code to the public.
+
+  The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
+ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
+to the community.  It requires the operator of a network server to
+provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
+users of that server.  Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
+a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
+code of the modified version.
+
+  An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
+published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals.  This is
+a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
+released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
+this license.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+  0. Definitions.
+
+  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
+
+  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+works, such as semiconductor masks.
+
+  "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
+"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+
+  To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
+earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+
+  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+on the Program.
+
+  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
+distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+
+  To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
+a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+
+  An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
+to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
+the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+
+  1. Source Code.
+
+  The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
+for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
+form of a work.
+
+  A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+is widely used among developers working in that language.
+
+  The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
+"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+
+  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
+System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
+includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+subprograms and other parts of the work.
+
+  The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+Source.
+
+  The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+same work.
+
+  2. Basic Permissions.
+
+  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
+covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
+rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+
+  You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
+for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+
+  Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+makes it unnecessary.
+
+  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+
+  No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+measures.
+
+  When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+technological measures.
+
+  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+
+  You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+
+  You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+
+  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+
+  You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+    it, and giving a relevant date.
+
+    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+    released under this License and any conditions added under section
+    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+    "keep intact all notices".
+
+    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
+    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
+    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+
+    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+    work need not make them do so.
+
+  A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
+in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+parts of the aggregate.
+
+  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+
+  You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+in one of these ways:
+
+    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+    customarily used for software interchange.
+
+    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+
+    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
+    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+    with subsection 6b.
+
+    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
+    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
+    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
+    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+
+    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+    charge under subsection 6d.
+
+  A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+included in conveying the object code work.
+
+  A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
+product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
+typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
+is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+the only significant mode of use of the product.
+
+  "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
+suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+modification has been made.
+
+  If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
+if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+been installed in ROM).
+
+  The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
+network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
+adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
+protocols for communication across the network.
+
+  Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
+in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
+documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+unpacking, reading or copying.
+
+  7. Additional Terms.
+
+  "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
+apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+this License without regard to the additional permissions.
+
+  When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
+additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+
+    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+
+    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+
+    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+
+    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+    authors of the material; or
+
+    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+
+    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+    those licensors and authors.
+
+  All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
+received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
+a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+
+  If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+where to find the applicable terms.
+
+  Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+the above requirements apply either way.
+
+  8. Termination.
+
+  You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+paragraph of section 11).
+
+  However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+
+  Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+your receipt of the notice.
+
+  Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+material under section 10.
+
+  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+
+  You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
+nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
+not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+
+  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+
+  Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
+for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+
+  An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
+work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+
+  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
+not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+
+  11. Patents.
+
+  A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
+work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+
+  A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
+owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
+purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+this License.
+
+  Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+
+  In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
+party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+patent against the party.
+
+  If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
+actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+
+  If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+work and works based on it.
+
+  A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
+the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
+work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+
+  Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+
+  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+
+  If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
+covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+
+  13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
+Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
+interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
+supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
+Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
+from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
+means of facilitating copying of software.  This Corresponding Source
+shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
+of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
+following paragraph.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
+combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
+License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
+3 of the GNU General Public License.
+
+  14. Revised Versions of this License.
+
+  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions
+will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
+Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
+Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
+option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+  If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+to choose that version for the Program.
+
+  Later license versions may give you additional or different
+permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+later version.
+
+  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+
+  THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
+OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+  16. Limitation of Liability.
+
+  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+
+  If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+
+                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+
+    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
+    along with this program.  If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+  If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
+network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
+get its source.  For example, if your program is a web application, its
+interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
+of the code.  There are many ways you could offer source, and different
+solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
+specific requirements.
+
+  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
+For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see
+<https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.

-A self-hosted work system-of-record for software projects, built to be driven by Claude Code. Notes, tasks, issues, projects, milestones, rules, and stored processes — reachable from Claude via a built-in MCP endpoint and a bundled Claude Code plugin, with a clean web UI for humans. No in-app LLM; Claude is the sole assistant.
+<h1 align="center">Fabled Grimoire</h1>
+
+<p align="center">A self-hosted system of record for the work you do with Claude Code.</p>
+
+Claude records what it learned, decided and built in Grimoire, and that record reaches the next session, so a solution is recalled instead of reinvented. Notes, tasks, plans, rules, lessons and reusable code live in one place. Claude reaches them through a built-in MCP endpoint and the bundled Claude Code plugin, and people read and edit the same records in the web UI. There is no language model inside Grimoire: Claude is the only assistant.
+
+## Deploy
+
+You need Docker with Compose. Save this as `docker-compose.yml` (it is the [`docker-compose.yml`](docker-compose.yml) in this repository), then run `docker compose up -d` beside it:
+
+```yaml
+# Fabled Grimoire: the app and its database.
+#   docker compose up -d
+# Then open http://localhost:5000. The first account registered becomes admin.
+#
+# Keep both volumes. app_data holds the instance's own SECRET_KEY, which seals
+# saved credentials; pgdata holds everything else.
+
+services:
+  app:
+    image: git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/fabledgrimoire:latest
+    ports:
+      - "5000:5000"
+    environment:
+      DATABASE_URL: "postgresql+asyncpg://${POSTGRES_USER:-grimoire}:${POSTGRES_PASSWORD:-grimoire}@db:5432/${POSTGRES_DB:-grimoire}"
+      LOG_LEVEL: "${LOG_LEVEL:-INFO}"
+      # Port 5000 is published straight to clients, so no proxy is trusted.
+      # Behind a reverse proxy, set 1 (one per proxy) and BASE_URL:
+      TRUSTED_PROXY_HOPS: "0"
+      # BASE_URL: "https://grimoire.example.com"
+    volumes:
+      - app_data:/data
+    depends_on:
+      - db
+    restart: unless-stopped
+
+  db:
+    # Postgres 17 with the vector extension Grimoire needs.
+    image: pgvector/pgvector:pg17
+    stop_grace_period: 120s
+    volumes:
+      - pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data
+    environment:
+      POSTGRES_USER: ${POSTGRES_USER:-grimoire}
+      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD:-grimoire}
+      POSTGRES_DB: ${POSTGRES_DB:-grimoire}
+    restart: unless-stopped
+
+volumes:
+  app_data:
+  pgdata:
+```
+
+Open `http://localhost:5000`. The first account you register becomes the admin.
+
+Nothing has to be set first. On its first start Grimoire makes its own `SECRET_KEY` and keeps it in the `app_data` volume, so restarts, reboots and updates all use the same key.
+
+To connect Claude, create an API key under **Settings → MCP Access**, then in Claude Code:
+
+```
+/plugin marketplace add https://git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/FabledGrimoire.git
+/plugin install grimoire@grimoire-plugin
+```
+
+The plugin asks for your Grimoire URL and the API key. Settings → MCP Access shows the exact commands for your instance.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Everything is optional. Set these in the environment or in a `.env` file beside the compose file:
+
+| Variable | When | What it does |
+|----------|------|--------------|
+| `BASE_URL` | Behind a proxy | The public URL, used in email links and SSO redirects |
+| `TRUSTED_PROXY_HOPS` | Rarely | The starting count of reverse proxies in front of Grimoire (default `1`; the compose file above sets `0` because it publishes the port directly). Check and change it in **Settings → Config → Reverse proxy**, which shows what each count reads for your own request; behind Cloudflare it is usually `2` |
+| `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` | Before the first start | The database password (defaults to `grimoire`; the database is reachable only inside the compose network). Postgres takes it once, when the volume is created |
+| `SECRET_KEY` | Rarely | A key you manage yourself, instead of the one Grimoire keeps. It wins over the kept key; remove it to go back |
+
+Everything else (registration, email, SSO, git forge connections, retrieval tuning, backups) is in **Settings**, or listed in [Configuration](docs/configuration.md).
+
+## Setup pitfalls
+
+- **Keep both volumes.** `pgdata` holds everything Grimoire stores. `app_data` holds the instance's key, and forge tokens and the backup bucket's secret are sealed under it. If the key is lost, Settings asks you to enter those credentials again; nothing else is lost.
+- **The embedding model downloads on first use**, into the `app_data` volume. Without internet access, semantic search falls back to keyword search until the model is in place.
+- **Behind a reverse proxy, turn off response buffering** for `/mcp`, because MCP responses stream. [Configuration](docs/configuration.md#behind-a-reverse-proxy) has an Nginx example.
+
+## Updating and backups
+
+```bash
+docker compose pull
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+Database migrations run when the app starts, and the key stays in its volume. Claude Code updates the plugin from its marketplace; run `/reload-plugins` after an update.
+
+**Settings → Data → Scheduled backups** writes a daily backup of the database to a folder or an S3-compatible bucket, and Settings → Data → Restore from Backup rolls the instance back to one, or brings a new instance back from it. See [Backups](docs/backups.md).
 
 ## Features
 
-Notes and tasks with a Markdown editor, sub-tasks, milestones, issues, and kanban project workspaces. Stored processes, an engineering rulebook system (with an inception step that decides what each project inherits), and semantic search with proactive knowledge-injection into Claude's context. A knowledge graph, per-user/group sharing, and a built-in MCP server (`/mcp`) plus a bundled Claude Code plugin so Claude can record and recall your work directly.
+**Working with Claude**
+- Claude enters a project and gets a short primer: its goal, current plans, open tasks and areas.
+- Your rules reach Claude when its work matches them, or at a moment of work such as finishing a task or pushing code.
+- Before Claude writes a file or runs a command, the plugin shows it the rules, lessons and reusable code that may apply.
+- Stored procedures, such as a drift audit, become Claude Code skills.
 
-## Quick Start
+**Recording the work**
+- Notes in a Markdown editor, with wikilinks, tags and version history.
+- Tasks, issues and time-boxed investigations, with work logs that the next session reads first.
+- Plans as milestones: a design plus ordered steps.
+- Lessons learned the hard way, linked to the rules they illustrate.
+- Duplicate checks, so a new record that matches an existing one updates it instead.
 
-**Prerequisites:** Docker and Docker Compose. No GPU or local model needed — Claude is the sole assistant, reached over MCP.
+**Reusing code**
+- Snippets of reusable code, each with when to reach for it and where it lives in the repo.
+- With a git forge connected, Grimoire tracks every function and style in your repos and shows which ones are still unaccounted for.
+- Ideas shared across projects on the same platform, with each project's answer recorded.
+- Design systems with tokens, inheritance and a generated stylesheet.
 
-Download [`docker-compose.quickstart.yml`](docker-compose.quickstart.yml) from this repo, then:
+**For people**
+- A web UI to browse, search and edit everything, plus a graph of how notes connect.
+- Sharing with users and groups, as viewer, editor or admin.
+- Email and password sign-in, optional SSO through OIDC, and invite links.
+- Personal export to Markdown or JSON, and admin backup and restore.
+
+The full list is in [Features](docs/features.md).
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| What you see | Why | Fix |
+|--------------|-----|-----|
+| `SECRET_KEY is set to the public placeholder` at startup | `SECRET_KEY` is `dev-secret-change-me` or `change-me-in-production` | Remove `SECRET_KEY`, or set a real one |
+| Settings asks for forge tokens or the backup secret again | The instance's key changed: the `app_data` volume was replaced, or `SECRET_KEY` was set or removed | Enter them again, or restore the previous key |
+| `Can't locate revision identified by '…'` at startup | An older image is running against a database a newer one has already migrated | Run the newer image; migrations only move forward |
+| The plugin's tools are missing in Claude Code | The plugin isn't installed, or Claude Code hasn't reloaded it | `/plugin` to install or update it, then `/reload-plugins` |
+| Search finds only exact words | The embedding model hasn't downloaded yet | Give the app internet access once, or wait for the first download to finish |
+
+## Development
 
 ```bash
-# Optional but recommended — set a secret key
-export SECRET_KEY=your-random-secret-here
-
-docker compose -f docker-compose.quickstart.yml up -d
+docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build
 ```
 
-Open `http://localhost:5000`. The first user to register becomes admin. To connect Claude, create an API key under **Settings → API Keys** and install the Claude Code plugin — see [API Keys & MCP](docs/api-keys-and-mcp.md).
+[Development](docs/development.md) covers checks, migrations, the plugin and CI. [Architecture](docs/architecture.md) describes how it is built, and the [API reference](docs/api-reference.md) lists every REST endpoint.

+"""family canon — platforms, family ideas, the adoption ledger and its decision
+log
+
+Revision ID: 0120
+Revises: 0119
+Create Date: 2026-10-06
+
+When one project solves something every project on the same platform will
+meet, that solution becomes FAMILY CANON, and every other project on the
+platform answers it: adopted, a variant (with a reason), exempt (with a
+reason), or owed. These tables hold that.
+
+- `platforms` — a GLOBAL catalog, the canonical_systems shape: no owner, slug
+  is the match key. Seeded with generic technology names only. Nothing here
+  names an app, a repo or a house convention: the catalog ships to every
+  install.
+- `project_platforms` — which platforms a project is (declared / detected /
+  rejected). Membership is what makes "is this in family?" a lookup.
+- `family_ideas` — a NOTE's family state. No new record type: any notes row
+  (a note, a snippet, a lesson) becomes an idea by gaining one of these.
+- `family_idea_platforms` — the platforms an idea is for; the only scope
+  source. A linked rule topic takes its scope from the idea.
+- `family_idea_references` — reference implementations (snippets).
+- `family_adoptions` — one row per (project, idea): the project's answer.
+- `family_decisions` — append-only log of every promotion and ledger change.
+
+No backfill. No project has declared a platform and no note is an idea yet;
+inventing either would assert a judgment nobody made. The seed rows are
+written here verbatim rather than imported, so the migration keeps running
+unchanged after any service-side list moves on.

+Revises: 0120
+Create Date: 2026-10-09
+
+The fixed-question arm that searched for completion-report preferences when a
+task closed is gone: the reply shapes and the preferences mounted beside them
+now arrive on the moments. Its rows go with it (there is no legacy to
+preserve), because each one would otherwise mean something
+different once the arm is no longer registered:
+
+- `retrieval_logs` / `retrieval_judgments` — a source missing from the
+  registry reads as `unregistered_source`, whose advice is "add it to the
+  registry": the opposite of what happened.
+- `rule_usage_events` — a source missing from `RANKED_SOURCES` reads as
+  ambient, so its surfacings would silently move into the other column of
+  every rule's pull-through.
+- `retrieval_tuning_events` — the tuning history of a surface that no longer
+  exists.
+- `settings` — the arm's floor and budget keys, which nothing reads.
+
+COST IS BOUNDED BY AN INDEX, NOT BY THE TABLE. A migration runs at boot
+against the live tables, which CI never has. `retrieval_logs`
+and `retrieval_judgments` are indexed on `source`. `rule_usage_events` is not,
+so its delete is also bounded by `created_at` (indexed): no row of the arm
+predates `ARM_BORN`, and the scan covers weeks rather than the table's whole history.
+
+Not reversible: the arm is not coming back, so neither are its rows.

+
+A forge token was stored as plain text, so a copy of the database (or of a
+backup tool's snapshot of it) was enough to read every user's forge
+credential. Tokens are now sealed the way the backup destination's S3 secret
+is (services/secrets.py): Fernet under a key derived from SECRET_KEY, which
+lives in the deployment's environment rather than in the data.
+
+The column is renamed `token` -> `token_sealed` in the same step. The name
+says what the bytes are, and every reader has to change with it, so a reader
+missed here fails on a missing attribute instead of quietly sending
+ciphertext to the forge as a token.
+
+THE KEY DERIVATION IS FROZEN HERE, not imported. This revision must seal with
+exactly v1's key forever; importing services.secrets would let a later edit
+there change what an old migration writes. The unit lane checks that what
+this produces is what `secrets.unseal` opens today.
+
+Cost: one row per (user, forge host) — a handful per instance.
+
+Downgrade opens each token back into plain text. A row sealed under a
+different SECRET_KEY cannot be opened and comes back empty; its owner enters
+the token again.

-# Fable MCP — Design Spec
-
-**Date:** 2026-03-23
-**Status:** Approved
-**Author:** bvandeusen + Claude
-
----
-
-## Overview
-
-A Python MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets Claude directly interface with a running Fabled Assistant instance. The goal is two-fold: Claude's stronger reasoning handles planning, documentation, and analysis while Fable remains the authoritative store for notes, tasks, projects, and milestones; and direct API access enables process improvement by letting Claude observe and operate on real data rather than working from descriptions.
-
-The work is split into two sub-projects:
-
-1. **Fable API Key Feature** — additions to the main `scribe` project to support bearer token authentication
-2. **Fable MCP Server** — a new standalone Python package at `fable-mcp/` in the same repo root
-
-A third sub-project (Forgejo MCP for CI/CD automation) is planned as a follow-on after the Fable MCP is working.
-
----
-
-## Sub-project 1: Fable API Key Feature
-
-### Motivation
-
-All existing Fable routes use session-based authentication (`session["user_id"]`). The MCP server runs as a local process and cannot maintain a browser session, so a stateless bearer token mechanism is required. API keys are user-scoped and carry a read/write permission level.
-
-### Database
-
-New table `api_keys` via migration `0027_add_api_keys.py`:
-- `down_revision = "0026"` (the briefing tables migration)
-- `revision = "0027"`
-
-| Column | Type | Notes |
-|--------|------|-------|
-| `id` | Integer PK | |
-| `user_id` | Integer FK → users | CASCADE delete |
-| `name` | Text | Human-readable label |
-| `key_hash` | Text | SHA-256 of the full key, used for lookup |
-| `key_prefix` | Text | First 8 chars (e.g. `fmcp_ab12`), shown in UI |
-| `scope` | Text | `"read"` or `"write"` |
-| `last_used_at` | Timestamp | Nullable, updated on each authenticated request |
-| `created_at` | Timestamp | |
-| `revoked_at` | Timestamp | Nullable — soft delete |
-
-Full keys are generated as `fmcp_<32 random url-safe chars>`, returned once at creation, never stored. Only the SHA-256 hash is persisted.
-
-### Auth Middleware (`auth.py`)
-
-`_check_auth` is updated to check the `Authorization: Bearer <token>` header before falling back to session auth:
-
-1. If header present: hash the token, look up in `api_keys` where `revoked_at IS NULL`
-2. If found: update `last_used_at`, set `g.user` and `g.api_key`
-3. Scope enforcement: if `g.api_key.scope == "read"` and `request.method` is not `GET`, return 403
-4. If header absent: existing session logic runs unchanged
-
-Session auth is untouched — no regression risk for the web UI.
-
-**Admin routes and API keys:** Routes decorated with `admin_required` check `user.role == "admin"` after auth resolves. API keys authenticate as the key owner — so a write-scoped key for a non-admin user will fail admin-protected routes with 403 (role check, not scope check). This is intentional: API keys cannot elevate privilege beyond the user's role.
-
-### Routes (`/api/api-keys`)
-
-New blueprint `api_keys_bp`, registered in `app.py`:
-
-- `GET /api/api-keys` — list caller's keys (prefix, name, scope, last_used_at, created_at — never the hash or full key)
-- `POST /api/api-keys` — create key; body: `{name, scope}`. Returns full key in response **once only**
-- `DELETE /api/api-keys/:id` — revoke by setting `revoked_at = now()`
-
-### Settings UI
-
-New "API Keys" tab in `SettingsView.vue` (added to `VALID_TABS`):
-
-- Create form: name input + read/write radio/toggle + "Generate Key" button
-- After creation: one-time modal displaying the full key with a copy button and a warning that it will not be shown again
-- Keys table: columns for name, scope badge, prefix, last used, revoke button
-- Revoke shows inline confirmation before calling DELETE
-
-### New Search Endpoint
-
-`GET /api/search?q=<query>&content_type=note|task|all&limit=N`
-
-Calls the existing `semantic_search_notes()` service (already in `services/embeddings.py`). The `content_type` parameter maps to the service's `is_task` argument:
-- `content_type=note` → `is_task=False`
-- `content_type=task` → `is_task=True`
-- `content_type=all` (default) → `is_task=None`
-
-Returns:
-
-```json
-{
-  "results": [
-    {"id": 1, "title": "...", "body": "...", "is_task": false, "similarity": 0.87, "tags": [...]}
-  ],
-  "total": 5
-}
-```
-
-This endpoint is needed by the MCP's `search.py` tool module. It reuses existing infrastructure with no new ML work.
-
-### Conversation Type: `"mcp"`
-
-A new conversation type `"mcp"` is added alongside `"chat"` and `"briefing"`. This requires changes in two places in the main app:
-
-**`services/chat.py`** — `create_conversation(user_id, title, model)` gains an optional `conversation_type: str = "chat"` parameter, passed through to the `Conversation` constructor.
-
-**`routes/chat.py`** — `POST /api/chat/conversations` accepts an optional `conversation_type` body field (defaults to `"chat"`), passed to `create_conversation`. `GET /api/chat/conversations` continues to default-filter to `conversation_type="chat"` (excluding `"mcp"` and `"briefing"`); pass `?type=mcp` to retrieve MCP conversations.
-
-**Retention:** `cleanup_old_conversations` in `routes/chat.py` currently deletes conversations regardless of type. It must be updated to exclude `conversation_type="mcp"` from the sweep, so MCP audit-trail conversations are not automatically pruned.
-
-MCP conversations:
-- Are created with a caller-supplied name (e.g., `"MCP Session 2026-03-23"`) or auto-named
-- Are excluded from the default chat list
-- Are accessible via `GET /api/chat/conversations?type=mcp` for inspection
-- Appear in the Fable UI if explicitly navigated to, providing an audit trail of MCP-driven interactions
-
-### Chat SSE Wire Format
-
-The MCP's `chat.py` tool must consume the existing SSE stream. The relevant endpoints and event schema:
-
-- **Create conversation:** `POST /api/chat/conversations` → `{id, title, ...}`
-- **Post message + start generation:** `POST /api/chat/conversations/:id/messages` → `{message_id, ...}`; then connect to:
-- **Stream:** `GET /api/chat/conversations/:id/stream` (SSE)
-
-SSE event format (each line is `data: <json>`):
-- `{"type": "token", "content": "..."}` — streaming token
-- `{"type": "tool_call", "name": "...", "result": {...}}` — tool fired
-- `{"type": "done", "content": "...", "tools_used": [...]}` — generation complete; this is the termination event
-
-The MCP tool reads tokens until it receives `type: "done"`, then returns `response` (full content) and `tools_used` (list of tool names).

-
-`fable-mcp/` at the repository root, alongside `src/`, `frontend/`, `alembic/`. It is **not** part of the main Docker build and has no import relationship with `scribe`. It will be extracted to its own Forgejo repo once stable.

-
-### Dependencies
-
-```toml
-[project]
-dependencies = [
-  "mcp[cli]>=1.0",
-  "httpx>=0.27",
-  "python-dotenv>=1.0",
-]
-```
-
-### `client.py`
-
-`FableClient` is an async context manager wrapping `httpx.AsyncClient`. It reads `FABLE_URL` and `FABLE_API_KEY` from environment variables (with `python-dotenv` fallback to `.env`). All methods are `async def` and return parsed dicts. A `FableAPIError(status_code, message)` exception is raised for any non-2xx response.
-
-A module-level singleton `_client: FableClient` is initialized at server startup and shared across all tool modules.
-
-### `server.py`
-
-Uses `mcp[cli]`'s `FastMCP` class. Imports all tool modules, which register their tools via decorators against the shared `FastMCP` instance. Entry point `main()` calls `mcp.run()` (stdio transport).
-
-### Tool Modules
-
-Each module imports `_client` from `client.py` and defines tools as `async def` functions decorated with `@mcp.tool()`. Tool docstrings serve as the MCP tool descriptions visible to Claude.
-
-**`notes.py`** tools:
-- `list_notes(query, tags, project_id, limit, offset)`
-- `get_note(note_id)`
-- `create_note(title, body, tags, project_id)`
-- `update_note(note_id, title, body, tags, project_id)`
-- `delete_note(note_id)`
-
-**`tasks.py`** tools:
-- `list_tasks(query, project_id, milestone_id, status, priority, limit, offset)`
-- `get_task(task_id)`
-- `create_task(title, body, project_id, milestone_id, priority, status)`
-- `update_task(task_id, title, body, project_id, milestone_id, priority, status)`
-- `delete_task(task_id)`
-- `patch_task_status(task_id, status)`
-- `add_task_log(task_id, content)`
-
-**`projects.py`** tools:
-- `list_projects()`
-- `get_project(project_id)` — includes milestone summary
-- `create_project(title, description, goal, color)`
-- `update_project(project_id, title, description, goal, status, color)`
-- `delete_project(project_id)`
-
-**`milestones.py`** tools:
-- `list_milestones(project_id, status)`
-- `get_milestone(project_id, milestone_id)`
-- `create_milestone(project_id, title, description, order_index)`
-- `update_milestone(project_id, milestone_id, title, description, status, order_index)`
-- `delete_milestone(project_id, milestone_id)`
-
-**`search.py`** tools:
-- `semantic_search(query, content_type, limit)` — `content_type` is `"note"`, `"task"`, or `"all"` (avoids shadowing Python's `type` builtin). Calls `GET /api/search`, returns ranked results with similarity scores.
-
-**`chat.py`** tools:
-- `send_message(message, conversation_name)`:
-  - Looks up or creates a Fable conversation with the given name and `conversation_type="mcp"`
-  - Posts the message via `POST /api/chat/conversations/:id/messages`
-  - Consumes SSE stream from `GET /api/chat/conversations/:id/stream` until `type: "done"`
-  - Returns: `{response: str, tools_used: [str], conversation_id: int}`
-  - MCP conversations are excluded from the normal chat UI list
-
-### Error Handling
-
-`FableAPIError` is caught at each tool boundary and returned as a descriptive string rather than propagating as an exception. This ensures Claude receives a readable error message (e.g., `"Fable API error 403: Read-only key cannot perform write operations."`) rather than a stack trace. Network errors (`httpx.RequestError`) are similarly caught and surfaced as strings.
-
-Scope enforcement lives entirely in Fable's auth middleware — the MCP does not duplicate it.
-
-### Claude Code Registration
-
-After `pip install -e fable-mcp/` (or `uv tool install ./fable-mcp`), add to `~/.claude/settings.json`:
-
-```json
-{
-  "mcpServers": {
-    "fable": {
-      "command": "fable-mcp",
-      "env": {
-        "FABLE_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
-        "FABLE_API_KEY": "fmcp_your_key_here"
-      }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Claude Code spawns the process over stdio automatically. No Docker, no daemon.
-
----
-
-## Build & Repo Plan
-
-1. Implement and test within `scribe/fable-mcp/`
-2. Once stable, extract to a new Forgejo repo (`bvandeusen/fable-mcp`)
-3. Forgejo MCP (Gitea MCP) added as a second MCP server to automate build/push/config workflows — separate spec when ready
-
----
-
-## Out of Scope (v1)
-
-- MCP resources (browsable URI tree) — tools cover all use cases in Claude Code
-- Forgejo MCP — follow-on spec
-- Rate limiting on API key endpoints
-- Key expiry / TTL
-- Per-resource scope (e.g., key restricted to one project)

-## New Backend Files
-
-### `src/scribe/services/stt.py`
-Lazy singleton `WhisperModel` loader. Public API:
-- `load_stt_model()` — called at startup via `asyncio.create_task`
-- `transcribe(audio_bytes, mime_type) -> str` — runs in `run_in_executor`; writes bytes to `NamedTemporaryFile`, returns concatenated segment text
-- `stt_available() -> bool`
-
-### `src/scribe/services/tts.py`
-Lazy singleton `KPipeline` loader. Public API:
-- `load_tts_model()` — called at startup
-- `synthesise(text, voice, speed) -> bytes` — runs in `run_in_executor`; returns WAV bytes (24kHz, 16-bit mono)
-- `list_voices() -> list[dict]` — returns static list of known Kokoro voice IDs + labels
-- `tts_available() -> bool`
-
-### `src/scribe/routes/voice.py`
-Blueprint at `/api/voice`, all routes `@login_required`.
-
-| Endpoint | Method | Description |
-|---|---|---|
-| `/api/voice/status` | GET | STT/TTS availability; `enabled` false if `VOICE_ENABLED=false` |
-| `/api/voice/voices` | GET | List available Kokoro voices |
-| `/api/voice/transcribe` | POST | multipart `audio` field → `{"transcript": "...", "duration_ms": 123}` |
-| `/api/voice/synthesise` | POST | `{"text", "voice", "speed"}` → WAV bytes |
-
----
-
-## Modified Backend Files
-
-### `src/scribe/app.py`
-- Register `voice_bp` blueprint
-- In `startup()`: `asyncio.create_task(load_stt_model())` + `asyncio.create_task(load_tts_model())` when `VOICE_ENABLED`
-
-### `src/scribe/config.py`
-- Add 4 new env var attributes
-- Add validation in `validate()`
-
-### `src/scribe/services/llm.py`
-- Add `voice_mode: bool = False` and `voice_speech_style: str = "conversational"` to `build_context()`
-- When `voice_mode=True`, prepend: *"Respond naturally as if speaking aloud. No markdown, bullet points, headers, or code blocks. Complete sentences only."*
-- Append style modifier based on `voice_speech_style`
-
-### `src/scribe/services/generation_task.py`
-- Add `voice_mode: bool = False` to `run_generation()`
-- Read `voice_speech_style` from settings when voice_mode; pass both to `build_context()`
-
-### `src/scribe/routes/chat.py`

-# Agentic Briefing — Design Spec
-
-**Date:** 2026-04-10
-**Status:** Proposed
-**Author:** bvandeusen + Claude
-
----
-
-## Problem
-
-The current briefing pipeline hallucinates calendar events, tasks, and news items that do not exist in the user's actual data. Observed examples from production:
-
-- A morning briefing asserting "your dentist appointment is still in progress" when no such event existed
-- An 8am check-in mentioning "a quick meeting at 10:30 AM" with no backing calendar entry
-- A midday check-in inventing "a team huddle at 2:30 PM" and "the Q2 budget draft due by Friday"
-- The model calling `search_images` in response to a clarifying question about a fabricated meeting
-
-These are not bugs in data retrieval — the data gathering code (`_gather_internal`, `_gather_external`) returns correct values. They are a structural consequence of how the briefing context is assembled.
-
-## Root cause — the "no receipt" problem
-
-The current `run_compilation` pipeline does this:
-
-1. Python code gathers data (tasks, events, weather, news) from the database
-2. Python formats the data into a structured text blob as the user-role message: `TODAY'S EVENTS: ...`, `DUE TODAY: ...`, etc.
-3. The LLM is called **once** with `[system_prompt, user_prompt]` and produces prose
-4. Only the prose reply is written to the conversation. **The underlying data is never persisted in the conversation history.**
-
-When the user later chats in the briefing conversation, the chat endpoint loads the full conversation history — which contains the model's *prose* from earlier but not the data that prose was derived from. The model's own prior output becomes the only source of "truth" available for follow-up questions. If that prose asserted a fact (real or hallucinated), the model has no way to distinguish it from ground truth when generating the next reply, and it will double down.
-
-Compounding factors:
-
-- **Empty sections are silently omitted.** If `calendar_events` is empty, the user prompt contains no `TODAY'S EVENTS:` line at all. The model has no explicit "zero events" signal — combined with an imperative system prompt ("note calendar events and tasks"), it interprets the silence as "I should mention some" and fabricates.
-- **Scheduled slot injections append synthetic turns.** `run_slot_injection` writes a fake `[Midday briefing update]` user message and the assistant reply into the persistent conversation. By evening, the chat history contains three separate briefings, each potentially with errors, all treated as equal-weight context on follow-up.
-- **The `search_images` tool is available during briefing chat**, with a negative-instruction description ("Not for factual questions"). Small and mid-sized models frequently ignore negative guidance in tool descriptions and call the tool anyway.
-
-## Solution — agentic briefing (the receipt model)
-
-Replace the one-shot synthesis with a tool-call loop. The briefing is no longer "a text blob synthesized from pre-gathered data." It is **a scheduled agent run**: the LLM is given a system prompt, a curated set of read-only data tools, and a trigger ("generate the morning briefing"). The model must call tools to see what exists. Every tool call and tool result becomes part of the conversation history, where it lives as a permanent, structured receipt.
-
-### Why this fixes the hallucination
-
-When the model calls `list_events(today) → []`, that empty array is now a persistent message in the conversation. On a follow-up question like "what meeting?", the chat endpoint loads the conversation and the model sees its own tool result from the morning showing no events. Answering "you had a meeting at 10:30" would require the model to directly contradict a tool result sitting two messages back — something LLMs are much more reliable at avoiding than contradicting their own prior prose.
-
-In short: **the model cannot fabricate what has a visible receipt proving it does not exist.**
-
-### What the model sees — before vs after
-
-**Before** — the model sees one structured blob and produces prose. The blob is discarded.
-
-```
-[system] You are a personal assistant... weave together what matters...
-[user]   Date: 2026-04-10
-         WEATHER: Home — partly cloudy, 8–16°C
-         DUE TODAY: Fix briefing hallucinations
-         OVERDUE (2 tasks): ...
-[assistant] Morning! Looks like a quiet day with two overdue items...
-```
-
-**After** — the model is given tools and iterates to ground truth.
-
-```
-[system] You are the user's personal assistant giving their morning briefing.
-         Use tools to see what's relevant. Only mention things you learned from
-         tool calls. If a tool returns nothing, say so honestly.
-[user]   Generate the morning briefing.
-[assistant] tool_call: list_tasks(filter="due_today")
-[tool]   [{"id": 81, "title": "Fix briefing hallucinations", ...}]
-[assistant] tool_call: list_tasks(filter="overdue")
-[tool]   [{"id": 42, ...}, {"id": 43, ...}]
-[assistant] tool_call: list_events(today)
-[tool]   []
-[assistant] tool_call: get_weather(location="home")
-[tool]   {"description": "partly cloudy", "temp_min": 8, "temp_max": 16}
-[assistant] tool_call: get_rss_items(max=8)
-[tool]   [...]
-[assistant] Morning! Partly cloudy today, 8 to 16 — nothing on the calendar
-         so it's a clean run at the desk. Two things to keep in mind...
-```
-
-The conversation now contains verifiable receipts: `list_events(today)` returned `[]`, and that result sits in context forever (until pruned). Follow-up questions operate against those receipts.
-
-## Architecture
-
-### Existing infrastructure (reused, not rebuilt)
-
-The codebase already has the agentic primitives — they're used for regular chat:
-
-- **`llm.py::stream_chat_with_tools`** — the streaming tool-use loop that talks to Ollama with a `tools` parameter and yields tool-call chunks
-- **`generation_task.py::_stream_with_retry`** — wraps `stream_chat_with_tools` with retry-on-500 behavior for cold-model races
-- **`tools.py`** — defines 40+ tool schemas and an execution dispatcher
-
-The briefing bypasses all of this and calls a one-shot `_llm_synthesise` helper. The refactor is mainly "route briefings through the same pipeline regular chat already uses."
-
-### New modules
-
-**`briefing_tools.py`** — a small wrapper exposing a curated read-only subset of `tools.py` for briefing runs. This is an **explicit allowlist**, not a blocklist, so newly-added tools must be opted in:
-
-| Tool | Purpose |
-|---|---|
-| `list_tasks` (with filter args) | See what's actionable today, overdue, high priority |
-| `list_events` (today / upcoming) | Know what's on the calendar |
-| `get_weather` | Current/forecast weather |
-| `get_rss_items` | Pull news themes filtered by user preferences |

-**Explicitly omitted** from the briefing tool set:

-- All `create_*`, `update_*`, `delete_*` — briefings are read-only; a scheduled background job must not decide to mutate the user's data on its own
-- `set_rag_scope`, `calculate` — not relevant to briefing content
-
-### New briefing function
-
-**`briefing_pipeline.py::run_agentic_briefing(user_id, slot, model, conversation_id)`** replaces `run_compilation`'s body (and eventually `run_slot_injection`). Internally:
-
-1. Build a slot-specific system prompt (see below)
-2. Load the curated briefing tools from `briefing_tools.py`
-3. Seed messages with `[system, user]` where the user message is a simple trigger like `"Generate the morning briefing."`
-4. Enter a tool-call loop (max 8 iterations):
-   - Call `stream_chat_with_tools`
-   - If the model returns `tool_calls`, execute them via the existing dispatcher, append tool results, continue
-   - If the model returns a final assistant message with no pending tool calls, break
-5. Return `(final_prose, full_message_list, metadata)`
-
-The full message list is important: it's written to the conversation along with the final prose, so the tool-call receipts become part of the persistent record.
-
-### Slot-specific system prompts
-
-Compilation (full morning briefing):
-
-```
-You are the user's personal assistant giving their full morning briefing.
-Use the tools available to see what's actually relevant today — tasks due,
-overdue items, events on the calendar, weather, news themes, project state
-— and weave it into a warm, natural-sounding summary.
-
-Rules:
-- Call tools to see the data. Never assert facts you didn't learn from a tool.
-- If a tool returns nothing (no events today, no overdue tasks), say so
-  honestly. Don't fabricate items to fill space.
-- Write flowing prose. No markdown, no headers, no bullet points.
-- Aim for 6–10 sentences. Skip topics that have nothing interesting.
-- Close on one or two concrete, actionable suggestions.
-
-User profile (for tone and preferences):
-{profile_body}
-```
-
-Check-ins (midday, afternoon):
-
-```
-You are the user's personal assistant giving a brief {slot} check-in.
-Use tools to see what's changed since this morning. Focus on progress
-and what's still unaddressed.
-
-Rules:
-- Call tools to see current state. Never assert facts without tool results.
-- If nothing meaningful has changed, say so briefly — don't invent progress.
-- 3–5 sentences, natural prose, no markdown.
-```
-
-### Conversation hygiene — removing the fake user messages
-
-The current scheduler appends two fake messages on every slot injection:
-
-```python
-await post_message(conv.id, "user", f"[{slot.title()} briefing update]")
-await post_message(conv.id, "assistant", text)
-```
-
-Under the agentic model, we drop the fake `"user"` message entirely. Slot updates become plain assistant messages tagged with `metadata.briefing_slot = "midday"`. The chat endpoint's message loader is updated to filter these when building the LLM context on follow-ups, so a user chatting in the briefing conversation doesn't see three earlier briefings smashed into their history. The UI continues to show them as visible timeline entries.
-
-(This is the Option A filter from the earlier discussion — a small, surgical change compared to migrating briefings to a separate sidecar table. Sidecar storage remains a possible future step.)
-
-### Ollama setup compatibility
-
-The existing Ollama deployment uses non-parallel mode across two GPUs, with a concern about context duplication between cards. This is the correct setup for agentic briefings:
-
-- Each tool-call iteration shares the same KV cache on the same GPU, so appending tool results is cheap
-- There is no race where a second iteration could land on a different card with a different cache state
-- The trade-off is serialization: a briefing in progress will block a concurrent user chat request until it finishes, but scheduled briefings are rare enough (4× per day) that this is acceptable
-
-If GPU contention becomes a problem later, the right lever is pinning specific models to specific GPUs (e.g., background tasks on GPU 1, interactive models on GPU 0) — not enabling parallelism.
-
-## Cost & trade-offs
-
-- **Latency:** a briefing now makes 5–7 inference calls (one per tool-call decision plus the final prose) instead of 1. On a local Ollama with a 7B model, expect 15–40s per briefing vs the current 5–10s. Acceptable for a background job; if it becomes painful at the user-facing check-in slots, investigate letting the model batch independent tool calls in a single turn (Ollama supports this).
-- **Model requirements:** the default model must be reliable at tool calling. `qwen2.5:7b`, `llama3.1:8b`, `mistral-small-3:24b`, and similar handle it well. Models in the ≤3B class typically fail — they either emit no tool calls and return empty prose, or hallucinate invalid tool arguments. If a user's `default_model` is too small, agentic mode should fall back to legacy mode with a log warning.
-- **Context growth:** tool results bloat the conversation. At 8 tool calls per compilation × 4 slots per day, a daily briefing conversation can reach 20-30 KB of JSON-heavy history. Fine for a day; aged briefings should be archived/rolled up after 7 days.
-- **Tool subset drift:** someone adds a new mutating tool to `tools.py` and forgets to update the briefing allowlist. Mitigated by the allowlist model — the default for new tools is "not exposed to briefings."
-- **Infinite loop safety:** a buggy model could tool-call forever. Hard cap at 8 iterations, log a warning if hit, return whatever prose was last produced (or a fallback message).
-
-## Migration path
-
-Ship incrementally, each step independently reversible:
-
-**PR 1 — Agentic compilation behind a feature flag.** Add `briefing_tools.py`, add `run_agentic_briefing`, add a per-user setting `briefing_mode: "legacy" | "agentic"` (default legacy). Route only the 4am compilation through the new path when the flag is set. Keep slot-injection on the legacy path. Enable the flag on the author's account first, validate output quality over several days, then flip the default for all users. No DB migration required — the setting lives in the existing `settings` table.
-
-**PR 2 — Agentic slot injections + conversation hygiene.** Migrate midday/afternoon check-ins to the same pipeline. Remove the fake `[Midday briefing update]` user-role message; slot updates become plain assistant messages tagged with `metadata.briefing_slot`. Add a chat-message-loader filter that excludes slot-tagged messages from the LLM context on follow-ups (they remain visible in the UI).
-
-**PR 3 — UI polish.** Collapsed tool-call status row in the briefing card ("✓ checked calendar · ✓ looked at tasks · ✓ pulled weather"), expanding to show tool results on click. Tool-result cards (weather, news, task list) rendered inline where useful.
-
-**PR 4 (optional) — Sidecar storage for briefing snapshots.** If the chat-filter approach in PR 2 feels too hacky, migrate briefings out of the conversations table and into a dedicated `briefing_snapshots` table. Frontend renders them as pinned timeline cards separate from chat. Larger refactor; defer until PR 1–3 prove the approach works.
-
-## Secondary win — tightening the main chat system prompt
-
-The regular chat is already agentic (it uses `stream_chat_with_tools`), but its system prompt does not explicitly require the model to ground factual claims in tool results. The prompt discipline introduced for briefings — *"Never assert facts you didn't learn from a tool. If a tool returns nothing, say so honestly."* — is worth applying to the main chat system prompt in a follow-up PR. The mechanism already works; only the framing needs tightening.
-
-## Out of scope
-
-- The Android Flutter client's failure to render `search_images` tool-result cards. This is a separate rendering gap in the mobile app and does not affect the server-side fix. Tracked separately.
-- Re-evaluating the Ollama parallelism setting. The current non-parallel config is correct for this work.
-- Replacing the background model for title/summary/observation extraction. That model's role is unrelated to briefings.

-## Project Structure
+- **The web UI** is a Vue single-page app, built into the image and served by Quart. Every unknown path that isn't under `/api/` falls back to `index.html`; `/api/*` always answers JSON.
+- **The REST API** (`src/grimoire/routes/`) backs the UI, one blueprint per resource.
+- **The MCP server** (`src/grimoire/mcp/`) is how Claude reads and writes records. Each module in `mcp/tools/` registers its tools, and the server's instructions and each tool's docstring are the contract an agent reads. Requests authenticate with an API key as a Bearer token.
+- **The plugin** (`plugin/`) runs in the user's Claude Code. Its hooks call `/api/plugin/*` to put the right context in front of Claude at the right moment: the project at session start, matching rules and prior art before a prompt or a tool call, the rules mounted on a moment of work, and a check on the reply that ends a turn. Its skills describe the working practices. See [API Keys & MCP](api-keys-and-mcp.md) to install it.
+- **Services** (`src/grimoire/services/`) hold the logic both doors share. Routes and MCP tools stay thin: parse the request, check access, call a service, return a plain dict.

+## Data model
 
-## Key Design Decisions
+Most records are rows in one `notes` table, told apart by kind:
 
-**Single container for frontend + API.** Quart serves the Vue.js production build as static files and exposes the REST API under `/api/`. The SPA is built by Vite during the Docker image build.
+- **Notes**, and the specialised kinds that are notes underneath: **snippets** (recorded prior art, with a canonical code location), **lessons** (transferable insights, linked to the rules they instance) and **processes** (stored procedures, synced to Claude Code as skills).
+- **Tasks**: a note with a status. A task's kind is `work`, `issue` or `spike`. Tasks carry work logs, sub-tasks, recurrence and a session claim.
 
-**SPA routing via 404 handler.** `app.py` uses `@app.errorhandler(404)` (not a catch-all route) to serve static files or fall back to `index.html`. API routes (`/api/*`) always return JSON 404. This avoids a catch-all `/<path:path>` route intercepting API GETs.
+Around them:
 
-**Unified note/task model.** A task is just a note with task attributes enabled. `status IS NOT NULL` means it's a task. "Convert to task" sets `status='todo'`; "convert to note" clears `status`, `priority`, `due_date`. No separate table, no cascade complexity.
+- **Projects** group work and carry a goal. **Milestones** are plans: a design body plus ordered step tasks.
+- **Systems** are a project's named areas; records are tagged with them, and each maps to a canonical system shared across projects.
+- **Rulebooks → topics → rules.** A rule in a rulebook is global; a rule on a project applies there only. Rules have a trigger (`when_to_apply`), versions, relations to other rules, and can be mounted on **moments** of work (`work.change`, `reply.report`, ...), which plugin actions reach through moment mappings.
+- **Family canon**: ideas shared across projects on the same platform, and each project's answer to them (adopted, variant, owed).
+- **Design systems**: tokens and guidance, with inheritance; the stylesheet is generated from them.
+- **The shape ledger**: code shapes extracted from bound repos and their classification against snippets.
+- **Embeddings** for notes (chunked), rules, milestones and systems, in pgvector columns.
+- **Telemetry**: retrieval logs, note and rule usage, and the tuning history of retrieval thresholds.
+- **Users, groups, shares and API keys.** Access is decided in the app (`services/access.py`): owners, direct shares and group shares, with read or write permission.
 
-**First-class tag column.** Tags live in a `tags ARRAY[text]` column and are explicitly set by the client — not auto-extracted from body text. Hierarchical tags (`project/webapp`) supported via SQL `unnest + LIKE` prefix matching.
+Deleted records go to the trash first and can be restored until retention purges them.
 
-**Background generation architecture.** LLM streaming runs in a detached `asyncio.Task` that writes into an in-memory `GenerationBuffer`. SSE clients tail the buffer and can reconnect mid-stream without data loss. Buffer has a `cancel_event` for user-initiated stop. Completed buffers are cleaned up after 60s grace period. Periodic DB flushes every 5s preserve partial content. Both chat and AI Assist use this architecture.
+## Retrieval
 
-**SSE over WebSockets for LLM streaming.** SSE clients connect via `GET /api/chat/conversations/:id/generation/stream` with `Last-Event-ID` reconnection support. Frontend uses `fetch()` + `ReadableStream`.
+Search and the plugin's context injection run on the same pipeline (`services/retrieval_pipeline.py`): embed the query, rank stored chunks by cosine similarity in pgvector, keep what clears the surface's threshold, and log what was shown. Each surface (MCP search, auto-inject, the pre-tool rule arm, the write-path prior-art arm, ...) is a spec over those stages with its own thresholds and budget. The thresholds are settings an admin can tune, and every change is recorded with its reason. When the embedder is unavailable, search falls back to keyword matching.
 
-**Context building is server-side.** Backend fetches URL content and searches notes. Frontend sends the message text + optional context note IDs. `build_context()` returns `(messages, context_meta)`; metadata includes auto-found note IDs/titles sent to frontend via a `context` SSE event before streaming begins.
+The embedding model downloads into `FASTEMBED_CACHE_DIR` (default `/data/fastembed-cache`) on first use, so the `/data` volume keeps it across restarts.
 
-**No blocking long-running operations.** Any slow operation (model pulls, LLM calls, URL fetching) must never block app startup or freeze the UI. Backend uses SSE streaming for incremental responses. Model pulls stream NDJSON progress to the frontend.
+## Background work
 
-**SSRF protection.** `services/llm.py` blocks requests to loopback, private, link-local, reserved, and multicast addresses before fetching. `follow_redirects=False` prevents redirect-based bypasses.
+All in-process; there is no separate worker container.
 
-**Session cookie security.** `HttpOnly` and `SameSite=Lax` always set. `Secure` flag controlled by `SECURE_COOKIES` env var.
+- At startup the app records any shipped default that moved in this release, starts its schedulers, and only then backfills missing embeddings, so the backfill never competes with startup for the database.
+- Recurring tasks spawn every 15 minutes. Daily jobs: version auto-pinning (03:00 UTC), trash purge (03:30 UTC), targeted `VACUUM ANALYZE` (04:00 UTC by default). Scheduled backups check hourly whether one is due ([Backups](backups.md)).
+- Log, notification and auth-token retention run on their own loops.
+- A diagnostics heartbeat writes to `/data/diagnostics`.
 
-**Rate limiting.** In-memory sliding-window rate limiter (`rate_limit.py`) applied to auth endpoints: login (10/60s), register (5/300s), forgot-password (5/300s), reset-password (10/60s). Keys are per-IP. `TRUST_PROXY_HEADERS` env var enables `X-Forwarded-For` / `X-Real-IP` when behind a reverse proxy.
-
-**Idempotent migrations.** All Alembic migrations use raw SQL with `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`, `CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS`, and `DO $$ BEGIN CREATE TYPE ... EXCEPTION WHEN duplicate_object` to allow safe re-runs.

-## Data Model
-
-### Users
-
-| Column | Type | Notes |
-|--------|------|-------|
-| `id` | int PK | |
-| `username` | text UNIQUE NOT NULL | |
-| `email` | text nullable | |
-| `password_hash` | text nullable | NULL for OAuth-only accounts |
-| `oauth_sub` | text UNIQUE nullable | OIDC subject identifier |
-| `role` | text NOT NULL DEFAULT 'user' | First user auto-assigned 'admin' |
-| `session_version` | int NOT NULL DEFAULT 1 | Bumped on password change to evict sessions |
-| `created_at` | timestamptz | |
-
-### Notes (unified — includes tasks)
-
-| Column | Type | Notes |
-|--------|------|-------|
-| `id` | int PK | |
-| `title` | text | |
-| `body` | text | Markdown |
-| `tags` | ARRAY[text] | GIN indexed; explicitly set by client |
-| `parent_id` | int FK self nullable | Sub-tasks / sub-notes |
-| `user_id` | int FK users nullable | CASCADE |
-| `project_id` | int FK projects nullable | |
-| `milestone_id` | int FK milestones nullable | |
-| `status` | text nullable | `todo`/`in_progress`/`done` — non-null = task |
-| `priority` | text nullable | `none`/`low`/`medium`/`high` |
-| `due_date` | date nullable | |
-| `created_at`, `updated_at` | timestamptz | |
-
-Indexes: GIN on `tags`, B-tree on `status`, B-tree on `title`.
-
-### Settings
-
-Composite PK `(user_id, key)`. Per-user key-value store. CRUD via `services/settings.py`. Used for: `default_model`, `assistant_name`, `journal_config` (JSON: locations, temp_unit, prep schedule), `user_timezone`, `voice_*`, etc.
-
-### Conversations / Messages
-
-`conversations`: `id`, `title`, `model`, `user_id`, `conversation_type` (`chat`/`journal`/`mcp`), `day_date` (YYYY-MM-DD for journal conversations), `rag_project_id` (nullable int — RAG scope: NULL=orphan-only, -1=all, positive=project), `created_at`, `updated_at`.
-`messages`: `id`, `conversation_id` FK CASCADE, `role` (`user`/`assistant`), `content`, `status` (`done`/`generating`), `created_at`.
-
-Title auto-generated by LLM on first exchange, re-generated every 10th message.
-
-### Projects / Milestones
-
-`projects`: `id`, `user_id`, `title`, `description`, `goal`, `status` (`active`/`completed`/`archived`), `color`, `auto_summary` (nullable text — LLM-generated summary for `search_projects` scoring), `summary_updated_at` (nullable timestamptz), timestamps.
-`milestones`: `id`, `user_id`, `project_id` FK CASCADE, `title`, `description`, `status`, `order_index`, timestamps.
-
-### Sharing & Access
-
-`project_shares`, `note_shares`: each has `shared_with_user_id` OR `shared_with_group_id` (exclusive), `permission` (`viewer`/`editor`/`admin`), `invited_by`.
-
-`groups`, `group_memberships`: platform-wide groups with `member`/`owner` roles.
-
-Permission resolution is centralised in `services/access.py`. `get_project_permission(uid, project_id)` checks ownership → direct share → group-based share → note→project inheritance, returning the highest applicable permission.
-
-### Journal-Related Tables
-
-`weather_cache`: per-user, per-`location_key` cache. Columns: `user_id`, `location_key` (`home`/`work`/etc.), `location_label`, `forecast_json` (Open-Meteo response), `previous_json` (last forecast, used to detect changes), `fetched_at`. Lat/lon are *not* stored on the cache row — they live in the user's `journal_config.locations.{home|work}` setting and are used at refresh time.
-
-### API Keys
-
-`api_keys`: `id`, `user_id` FK CASCADE, `prefix` (first 8 chars, displayed in UI), `key_hash` (SHA-256 of full key — full key never stored), `name`, `scope` (`read`/`write`), `created_at`, `last_used_at`.
-
-### App Logs
-
-`category` (`audit`/`usage`/`error`), `user_id` FK nullable (SET NULL on delete), `username` (denormalised), `action`, `endpoint`, `method`, `status_code`, `duration_ms`, `error_type`, `error_message`, `traceback`, `details` JSONB.

-## Key Services
-
-| Service | Responsibility |
-|---------|---------------|
-| `services/access.py` | Permission resolution for all shared resources |
-| `services/llm.py` | `build_context()`, RAG injection, history summarisation |
-| `services/generation_task.py` | SSE streaming, tool-call loop, GenerationBuffer management |
-| `services/tools/` | LLM tool implementations (38 tools across 11 modules); decorator-based registry |
-| `services/embeddings.py` | `upsert_note_embedding()`, `semantic_search_notes()` |
-| `services/journal_prep.py` | Data gather → LLM prose opener; persisted into today's journal conversation |
-| `services/journal_scheduler.py` | APScheduler integration, per-user prep job, catch-up for missed runs |
-| `services/backup.py` | Full and per-user backup export/restore (version 2 format) |
-| `services/weather.py` | Nominatim geocoding + Open-Meteo forecast fetch + DB cache |
-| `services/rss.py` | feedparser-based fetch, per-feed DB cache, prune-to-100 |
+Every database wait on startup has a deadline. Migrations wait for the database to accept connections (up to five minutes) before they run, so the app starts cleanly whatever order the containers come up in.
 
 ## Authentication
 
-**Session cookies** — `HttpOnly`, `SameSite=Lax`, optionally `Secure` (`SECURE_COOKIES` env var). Session includes `session_version`; mismatch with DB value (after password change) results in 401 and session clear.
+- **Sessions**: `HttpOnly`, `SameSite=Lax` cookies, `Secure` on a request the trusted proxy reports as HTTPS, which also gets HSTS (`grimoire/proxy.py`). Changing a password bumps the user's session version and signs out their other sessions.
+- **API keys**: `Authorization: Bearer fmcp_...`, stored hashed. A `read` key may only call read endpoints and read MCP tools.
+- **OIDC** single sign-on with PKCE, optionally replacing local logins ([SSO / OAuth](sso-oauth.md)).
+- **Rate limits** on register, login and forgot-password, per client IP, read from `X-Forwarded-For` by `TRUSTED_PROXY_HOPS`.
 
-**Bearer token / API keys** — `Authorization: Bearer <key>` accepted by `_check_auth()` as an alternative to session cookies. The raw key is SHA-256 hashed and looked up via `services/api_keys.py`. Keys with `scope=read` are rejected on non-safe methods (`POST`/`PATCH`/`DELETE`). Used by Fable MCP and any external API consumers.
+Credentials Grimoire stores for outside services (forge tokens, the backup destination's S3 secret) are sealed under a key derived from `SECRET_KEY`, which the instance makes on first start and keeps in `/data/secret_key` unless one is set.
 
-**Local auth + OIDC/OAuth (PKCE)** — `services/oauth.py` handles discovery and `find_or_create_oauth_user`. On OAuth login: checks existing `oauth_sub` → matching email → creates new user.
+## Repository layout
 
-See [sso-oauth.md](sso-oauth.md) for provider-specific setup instructions.
-
-## LLM Pipeline Internals
-
-### Tool Routing
-
-No separate intent router — the main model handles all tool routing directly via Ollama's structured tool-calling output. The model receives the full tool schema list and decides whether to call a tool or respond conversationally. Extended reasoning (`think=True`) is always on for qwen3-class models: content-based gating was tried but exposed tool-call template fragility on short tool-intent prompts.
-
-### Tool Loop
-
-Multi-round tool loop (max 5 rounds). All implementations in `services/tools/` (decorator-based registry); `execute_tool(user_id, tool_name, arguments, conv_id=None, workspace_project_id=None)` is the dispatcher. `conv_id` and `workspace_project_id` are threaded in from `run_generation()` so tools like `set_rag_scope` can write to the current conversation.
-
-**Unified `create_note` tool** — creates both notes and tasks. Setting `status` (e.g. `"todo"`) creates a task; omitting it creates a knowledge note. All task fields (due_date, priority, milestone, parent_task, recurrence_rule) are available on the single tool.
-
-**Duplicate protection on `create_note`:**
-1. Exact title match (case-insensitive) → hard block, redirect to `update_note`
-2. Fuzzy title match (SequenceMatcher ≥ 82%; punctuation stripped before candidate search) → hard block
-3. Semantic content similarity (threshold 0.90, body ≥ 80 chars) → soft block with `requires_confirmation: true`
-
-**Project resolution** (`_helpers.resolve_project`): 4-step lookup — (1) exact DB match, (2) `query in title` substring, (3) `title in query` reverse substring, (4) SequenceMatcher ≥ 0.55.
-
-### Context Window and Summarisation
-
-`OLLAMA_NUM_CTX` (default 16384) controls the context window for all generation calls. Intent classification always uses `num_ctx=4096` to reduce VRAM pressure.
-
-History summarisation threshold: 30 messages. Keeps 8 recent messages. Summary max 400 tokens.
-
-### Web Research Pipeline
-
-`services/research.py` implements a full autonomous research pipeline:
-1. Intent model generates 5 focused sub-queries
-2. All 5 SearXNG queries run in parallel (200ms stagger to avoid rate limiter)
-3. Up to 15 unique URLs fetched in parallel
-4. LLM generates an outline (2–8 sections with title + focus)
-5. Each section synthesised in parallel from relevant sources
-6. Executive summary generated from all section content
-7. Index note created with executive summary + links to section notes; section notes linked back via `parent_id`
-8. Falls back to single-note synthesis if outline generation fails
-
-SearXNG tip: add the app server IP to `botdetection.ip_lists.pass_ip` in SearXNG `settings.yml` to bypass the rate limiter for trusted backend requests.
-
-### Image Cache
-
-`search_images` tool fetches images server-side via SearXNG, stores them on disk (SHA-256 dedup, content-type validation, 5 MB cap), and serves from `/api/images/<id>`. The user's browser never contacts the original image host.
-
-Config: `IMAGE_CACHE_DIR` (default `/data/images`), `IMAGE_MAX_BYTES` (default 5 MB).
-
-## RAG Pipeline
-
-1. `semantic_search_notes()` — cosine similarity via pgvector, threshold configurable per call; accepts `orphan_only` and `project_id` scope flags.
-2. Notes ≥ 0.60 similarity auto-injected into system prompt (up to 3, 800 chars each).
-3. Notes 0.45–0.60 surfaced in chat sidebar as "Suggested" (user clicks to include).
-4. Explicitly included notes delivered full-body.
-5. `excluded_note_ids` prevents the current note from being injected as its own context.
-
-### RAG Scope (three-value system)
-
-`conversations.rag_project_id` controls which notes are eligible for retrieval:
-
-| Value | Behaviour |
-|-------|-----------|
-| `NULL` (default) | Orphan notes only — notes with `project_id IS NULL` |
-| `-1` | All notes — opt-in to global search |
-| Positive int | That project's notes only |
-
-`build_context()` derives `orphan_only` + `effective_project_id` from this value before calling both the semantic and keyword search paths.
-
-**Scope tools** — Two LLM tools let the model discover and switch scope mid-conversation:
-- `search_projects` — SequenceMatcher scoring over title + description + `auto_summary`; returns top 5 matching projects.
-- `set_rag_scope` — persists the new `rag_project_id` to DB immediately; blocked in workspace view; causes the SSE `done` event to include `new_rag_scope` + `new_rag_scope_label` so the frontend chip updates reactively.
-
-**Project summaries** — `generate_project_summary()` calls Ollama (fire-and-forget) and stores the result in `projects.auto_summary`. Triggered on project update and note saves (debounced 1h). `backfill_project_summaries()` runs at startup.
-
-Embedding model: `nomic-embed-text` via Ollama. Backfill runs 30s after startup (background task).

+# Backups
+
+Grimoire can back itself up every day to a **folder** or an **S3-compatible
+bucket**. Each run adds one file; Grimoire never deletes an old one. Keeping and
+thinning the history is the destination's job.
+
+Set it up under **Settings → Data → Scheduled backups** (admins only).
+
+## What a backup is
+
+One file per run, named for the moment it was taken in UTC:
+
+```
+grimoire-20261015T020000Z.tar
+```
+
+Backups written while the app was called Scribe are named `scribe-…tar`.
+They are counted with the rest and restore the same way.
+
+It is a plain, **uncompressed** tar:
+
+- `manifest.json` comes first. It holds the backup format version, the Grimoire
+  version, when the backup was taken, and how many rows each table has.
+- Then there is one `<table>.jsonl` per table, one row per line.
+
+It holds everything the admin **Full Backup** download holds, laid out
+differently. It does **not** hold:
+
+- **Search indexes.** They are rebuilt from the records when Grimoire starts.
+- **Sharing:** groups, project shares and note shares.
+- **Credentials:** API keys and forge connections. After a restore, issue new
+  API keys and add forge connections again. (Forge tokens are also sealed under
+  `SECRET_KEY` in the database itself, so a copy of the database doesn't carry
+  them in readable form either. The key lives in `/data/secret_key`, outside
+  the database.)
+- **Logs and notifications.**
+- **The backup destination's own S3 secret.**
+
+The file contains hashed passwords, so store it somewhere only trusted people
+can read.
+
+### Why it is shaped this way
+
+The file is meant to be copied off-site by a deduplicating tool such as
+restic, which stores a chunk of data only once no matter how many backups
+contain it. Every choice serves that:
+
+- **It is never compressed.** Compression changes every byte after the first
+  edit, so nothing would match the day before. restic compresses its own
+  repository after deduplicating, so nothing is lost.
+- **Rows are in primary-key order, with their keys sorted.** A row that did
+  not change is the same bytes in the same place every day. An edited row
+  changes one line, and new rows land at the end of their table's file.
+- **Each table is its own file**, so a busy table never shifts the bytes of a
+  quiet one.
+- **The parts that change every run are kept in `manifest.json`**: the time
+  and the counts.
+- **Each run gets a new, dated name.** Overwriting one name would keep one
+  copy and no history.
+
+Day to day, the off-site copy then stores roughly what changed, not the whole
+file again.
+
+## Destinations
+
+### A folder
+
+A path **inside the Grimoire container**, normally a share mounted there:
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  grimoire:
+    volumes:
+      - /nfs/backup/grimoire:/backups
+```
+
+Grimoire writes each file under a hidden name (`.grimoire-….tar.part`) and renames
+it once it is complete. A program watching the folder never sees half a
+backup.
+
+### An S3-compatible bucket
+
+You need four things:
+
+- **Address:** the service itself, like `https://backup.example.com`. Don't
+  include the bucket; Grimoire addresses buckets by path.
+- **Bucket.**
+- **Access key.**
+- **Secret key.**
+
+Grimoire uploads and lists, and reads a backup back when you restore from the
+bucket; it never deletes. A key that may **add and read objects but not
+delete them** is therefore enough, and it is the safer key to hand out: a
+stolen one cannot wipe the history. A key that may only add objects still
+takes backups; restore then works by uploading a file or from the command
+line.
+
+The secret is stored encrypted, under a key derived from `SECRET_KEY`. It is
+never shown again, and never included in a backup. If an instance's
+`SECRET_KEY` changes, for example after a restore onto a new instance, the
+page asks for the secret again.
+
+**Test destination** checks the destination without sending a backup:
+
+- a folder: it writes and removes a hidden file;
+- a bucket: it only lists, because an add-only key could never remove a test
+  file.
+
+## Schedule and history
+
+- Backups run once a day at the hour you choose, in UTC. The default is 02:00,
+  before the nightly trash purge and database maintenance.
+- **Back up now** runs one straight away.
+- The page leads with when the last good backup was taken. It says
+  **Overdue** when backups are on and none has worked for 26 hours.
+- It lists the last 30 runs, and gives the reason for each failure in words.
+- A run that hasn't finished after an hour is abandoned and recorded as
+  failed.
+
+## Example: Fabled Archives
+
+[Fabled Archives](https://git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/fabledarchives)
+keeps service backups as "backup targets". Either destination works with it.
+
+1. On Archives' **Backups** page, make a target for Grimoire, named `grimoire`
+   for example.
+2. Choose how Grimoire's files arrive:
+   - **S3**: turn on the S3 way in for the target and make an S3 key that
+     may add and read objects but not delete them (an **append-only** key
+     takes backups too, but then Grimoire can't restore from the bucket). In
+     Grimoire, choose **An S3 bucket**:
+     - address: Archives' backup address (`http://<archives>:8081`);
+     - bucket: the target's name;
+     - access key and secret key: the key you just made.
+   - **A folder**: mount the share Archives watches into Grimoire as
+     `/backups/grimoire`, and point the target at that folder. In Grimoire, choose
+     **A folder** with `/backups/grimoire`.
+3. Set the target's **Retention** to **Archives**. Archives then keeps the
+   newest backups and thins the rest by day, week and month. Grimoire only adds.
+4. Give the target an expected cadence of **daily**, so a missed backup turns
+   it late in Archives as well as overdue in Grimoire.
+5. Add an off-site **restic** replication job for the target. The uncompressed
+   layout above is what lets that job send only what changed each day.
+
+## Restoring
+
+A restore puts the **whole instance** back to the moment a backup was taken,
+for every user:
+
+- records edited since go back to how they were;
+- records deleted since come back;
+- anything made since is removed.
+
+It matches records by their ids, so a live instance only restores a backup **of
+its own**. Each instance has an id, and every backup records the one it came
+from. A backup from another instance, or one made before backups recorded it,
+only goes into a new, empty instance, which takes it as it is.
+
+Before changing anything, the restore saves the current state as one more
+backup. It goes to the backup destination when scheduled backups are on, and
+otherwise to `/data/pre-restore`. The result says which file it is, so a
+restore can itself be undone.
+
+What a backup doesn't carry stays as it is wherever its owner survives the
+restore: API keys, forge connections, sharing, logs, and the destination's S3
+secret. The trash isn't in backups, so anything in the trash when the backup
+was taken is gone afterwards. Everyone is signed out, and search is rebuilt.
+
+### From the web
+
+**Settings → Data → Restore from Backup** lists the backups at the backup
+destination. You can pick one of those, or upload a `.tar` or the JSON
+**Full Backup** download (uploads are held to the server's request-size
+limit). The restore then shows what would change: when the backup was taken,
+and how many accounts, projects, plans, notes and rules there are now and will
+be afterwards. Type `roll back` to run it. Then sign in again.
+
+To read backups back from an S3 bucket, the key needs read access as well as
+write. Grimoire never deletes from the bucket.
+
+### From the command line
+
+For a file with no size limit, or a new instance with no backup destination
+yet, copy the file into the container and run:
+
+```sh
+docker exec -it grimoire python -m grimoire.restore /backups/grimoire-20261015T020000Z.tar
+```
+
+It prints what would change and stops. Add `--yes` to restore. It reads the
+JSON download too. Afterwards, **restart Grimoire** so the search indexes are
+rebuilt.
+
+After restoring into a new instance, issue new API keys, add forge connections
+again, and set up any sharing: none of them travel in a backup.

 # Configuration
 
-Configuration is via environment variables. The `docker-compose.yml` file sets defaults for local development; override them in a `.env` file (gitignored).
+Grimoire reads its configuration from environment variables. Most settings people change day to day (registration, SMTP, retrieval thresholds, backups, forge connections) live in **Settings** in the web UI instead.
 
-## Environment Variables
+Any variable marked *secret* can also be read from a file: set `<NAME>_FILE` to the path, for example a Docker secret at `/run/secrets/grimoire_key`.
+
+## Environment variables
 
 ### Core
 
 | Variable | Default | Description |
 |----------|---------|-------------|
-| `DATABASE_URL` | `postgresql+asyncpg://fabled:fabled@db/scribe` | PostgreSQL async connection string |
-| `SECRET_KEY` | `dev-secret-change-me` | Session signing key — **change this in production** |

-## Docker Compose Setup
-
-### Development (`docker-compose.yml`)
+[`docker-compose.yml`](../docker-compose.yml) runs the published image with its own database, and needs nothing set:
 
 ```bash
-# Copy the example env file
-cp .env.example .env
-# Edit .env to set a real SECRET_KEY
-
-# Start the stack
-docker compose up --build
-
-# App available at http://localhost:5000
+docker compose up -d
 ```
 
-The first user to register becomes admin. Registration auto-closes after that (re-enable from Settings → Users).
+Open `http://localhost:5000`. The first account registered becomes the admin; after that, registration stays closed until an admin opens it in Settings or sends an invite.
 
-### Production (`docker-compose.prod.yml`)
+Update with `docker compose pull && docker compose up -d`. The key and the data stay in their volumes.
 
-The production compose file adds:
-- Docker Secrets for `SECRET_KEY_FILE` and `DATABASE_URL_FILE`
-- Network isolation (internal bridge for DB + Ollama; only the app is externally accessible)
-- Health checks and resource limits
+### From source
 
 ```bash
-# Create Docker secrets
-echo "$(python3 -c 'import secrets; print(secrets.token_hex(32))')" | docker secret create fabled_secret_key -
-echo "postgresql+asyncpg://fabled:strongpassword@db/scribe" | docker secret create fabled_db_url -
-
-# Deploy
-docker stack deploy -c docker-compose.prod.yml fabled
+docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build
 ```
 
-## Production Deployment
+### Docker Swarm
 
-### Reverse Proxy (Required)
+[`docker-compose.prod.yml`](../docker-compose.prod.yml) is a stack file: the app and database on a private overlay network, trusting one proxy (`TRUSTED_PROXY_HOPS: "1"`). A Swarm can move the app to another node, away from a node-local `/data` volume, so the stack sets its own key: provide `DB_PASSWORD` and `SECRET_KEY` in the environment (or mount a Docker secret and set `SECRET_KEY_FILE`):
 
-Fabled Assistant does **not** handle SSL/TLS. Run it behind a reverse proxy:
+```bash
+DB_PASSWORD=... SECRET_KEY=... docker stack deploy -c docker-compose.prod.yml grimoire
+```
 
-- **Nginx**, **Traefik**, or **Caddy** in front of the app container
-- Terminate TLS at the proxy; forward to port 5000
-- **Do not expose port 5000 directly to the internet**
-- Rate-limit auth endpoints: ≤ 5 req/min per IP on `/api/auth/login` and `/api/auth/register`
+The database user, database and volume default to `grimoire`. An install created under the name Scribe keeps its data by setting `POSTGRES_USER`, `POSTGRES_DB` and `PGDATA_VOLUME` to the names it was created with.
+
+The shipped files leave out healthchecks and restart policies on purpose. The app waits for its database on startup, and the orchestrator's defaults restart it if it ever exits.
+
+### Volumes
+
+- **Database** (`pgdata`): everything Grimoire stores.
+- **App data** (`/data`): the instance's own `SECRET_KEY`, the embedding model cache and diagnostics. Losing it costs the key: Settings then asks for saved forge tokens and the backup secret again, and the model downloads again.
+
+Back up the database with **Settings → Data → Scheduled backups** ([Backups](backups.md)). A database backup doesn't carry the key; to move sealed credentials to a new instance, copy `/data/secret_key` with it.
+
+## Behind a reverse proxy
+
+Grimoire doesn't terminate TLS. Put it behind Nginx, Traefik or Caddy, forward to port 5000, and keep port 5000 off the internet. Set `BASE_URL`, then set the proxy count to the number of proxies a request passes through: one proxy is `1`, the default; Cloudflare's proxied DNS in front of your own proxy is `2`.
+
+**Settings → Config → Reverse proxy** sets the count and checks it against your own request. It shows the address Grimoire reads you as, and what each count from 0 to 3 would read. Pick the count that shows your own address. When a request comes through Cloudflare, the section names the count that reads the address Cloudflare reports, with a button that sets it. `TRUSTED_PROXY_HOPS` in the environment is only the starting value: a count saved in Settings wins, and **Use the environment's** goes back to it.
+
+A count that is too low makes every visitor read as the proxy, so they share one sign-in rate limit and a few bad sign-ins block everyone. The "too many attempts" message says so and points here. The block on sign-ins lifts after a minute; an admin who is already signed in can fix the count at once.
 
-Example Nginx location block:
 ```nginx
 location / {
     proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000;
     proxy_set_header Host $host;
-    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
     proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
     proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
 
-    # Required for SSE streaming
+    # MCP responses can stream.
     proxy_buffering off;
     proxy_read_timeout 600s;
-    proxy_send_timeout 600s;
 }
 ```
 
-If using `TRUST_PROXY_HEADERS=true`, ensure your proxy strips any client-supplied `X-Forwarded-For` headers before adding its own.
+Each proxy appends its entry to `X-Forwarded-For` and `X-Forwarded-Proto`, so Grimoire reads the entry that many in from the right: the one your own proxy wrote. Whatever a client puts to the left of it is ignored. A header with fewer entries than that (a LAN road with one proxy beside a Cloudflare road with two) is read at its leftmost entry, the one the first proxy wrote.
 
-### Security Checklist
+When that entry says `https`, the session cookie is marked `Secure` and the response carries `Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000`. Over plain HTTP neither is sent, and Grimoire never redirects to HTTPS, so a LAN install keeps working.
 
-- **Strong `SECRET_KEY`** — generate with:
-  ```bash
-  python3 -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_hex(32))"
-  ```
-  Or use Docker Secrets via `SECRET_KEY_FILE`.
-- **`SECURE_COOKIES=true`** — must be set when running behind TLS.
-- **`BASE_URL`** — set to your public URL; required for OIDC redirects and email links.
-- **Registration** — auto-closes after the first user (admin). Re-enable from Settings → Users or send invite links.
-- **Session invalidation** — changing or resetting a password bumps `session_version`, evicting all other active sessions. Button also available in Settings → Account.
-- **Keep Ollama on an internal network** — both compose files keep Ollama off the host network. Never expose the Ollama port publicly.
-- **Default SECRET_KEY warning** — the app logs a `WARNING` on startup if the default dev key is in use.
+A hop count higher than the real number of proxies lets a client choose its own address, so count them. With `0`, the headers are ignored and the socket peer is the client: use it when clients reach port 5000 directly.
 
-## Model Management
+## Security checklist
 
-Models are managed through Settings → General → Model Management in the web UI. You can:
-- Pull new models by name (streams progress via SSE)
-- View installed models with size and loaded/unloaded state
-- Delete unused models
-
-The app auto-warms user-preferred models on startup (only models already installed — never auto-pulls). The embedding model (`nomic-embed-text`) is auto-pulled on startup if missing.
-
-Recommended models for 2× 8 GB GPU:
-- **`qwen3:8b`** — strong reasoning + tools, fits in 8 GB, supports thinking mode
-- **`qwen2.5:7b`** — fast, tool-capable, smaller context
-- **`llama3.1:8b`** — reliable baseline, widely tested with tools
+- **Keep the key.** Forge tokens and the backup destination's S3 secret are sealed under a key derived from `SECRET_KEY`, so a copy of the database alone can't read them. Unset, the instance makes a random key and keeps it in `/data/secret_key`, readable by its owner only; keep that volume. If the key changes (say, a restore onto an instance with a different key), Settings marks those credentials and asks for them again; nothing else breaks. The app warns at startup when `SECRET_KEY` is a public placeholder or `/data` is not a mounted volume, and refuses to start with a placeholder key (`dev-secret-change-me`, `change-me-in-production`).
+- **The proxy count** (Settings → Config → Reverse proxy) matches the number of proxies in front of Grimoire, so rate limits and the audit log see the real client and the cookie is `Secure` over HTTPS. The section shows whether it does.
+- **Registration** is open only for the first account. Invite people, or open it briefly from Settings.
+- **Signing everyone else out**: changing a password ends that user's other sessions; Settings → Account has a button for it too.
+- **API keys** are per user, shown once, and can be read-only. Revoke any you no longer use under Settings → MCP Access.

-*Last updated: April 25, 2026. Iterate as the family of apps grows.*
+# Grimoire
 
----
+The design system Grimoire renders with is stored in Grimoire itself: **Grimoire**, which inherits **FabledSword**, edited at `/design-systems`. `frontend/src/assets/theme.css` is generated from it, and CI rejects a `var()` the sheet doesn't define. Where this page and the stored system differ, the stored system is right. Grimoire applies the baseline above with these choices:
 
-# Scribe-specific decisions in progress
-
-> This section tracks decisions made while adapting the FabledSword baseline above for Scribe specifically. Items here are *in progress* — once they feel solid, they get folded into the main body of the document (either as Scribe-specific extensions in the per-app section, or as updates to the universal rules where Scribe's needs reveal a gap in the baseline).
-
-*Iteration started: 2026-04-26. Foundation pass shipped 2026-04-27 in `7a9a8b7` (palette, fonts, light mode, action tokens, hardcoded indigo cleanup, warm-gold deprecation). Surface phase shipped 2026-04-27 across `93a3beb` → `3c1ec40` (Lucide migration, Hybrid-rule button reclassification per surface, long-form line-height, two-weights-only). The system is now applied end-to-end; this section will fold into the main body once the result has had time to settle in real use.*
-
-## Decisions made so far
-
-### Accent footprint — Hybrid rule (not Strict)
-
-The doc baseline says the per-app accent only appears on wordmark, active nav, cursor, and text selection — never on action buttons. Scribe currently uses indigo on essentially every interactive surface (CTAs, scrollbars, glows, borders, focus rings). Hard-cutting to the doc baseline would lose too much identity in one swing.
-
-**Hybrid rule:** the accent reserves a slightly larger footprint than the doc baseline, but still much smaller than today.
-
-- **Accent (dusty violet) lives on:** wordmark; active nav; cursor and text selection in editor surfaces; tags/pills/wikilinks; in-progress task badge; focus rings; **brand-moment CTAs** — chat Send, "Create note" empty-state CTA, journal Send, "Start journaling" empty-state.
-- **Moss (sage-green primary) lives on:** Save / Submit / Confirm in forms and modals; generic affirmative actions where the button just means "do this thing" with no brand pretense.
-- **Bronze (secondary):** Cancel-but-not-destructive, alternative paths.
-- **Oxblood (destructive):** Delete / Remove (paired with an icon).
-- **Pewter ghost:** tertiary actions, "later", "skip", "see also".
-
-**Rule of thumb:** if the user is engaging with a *Scribe-feature moment* (sending a chat, opening a fresh note, jumping into the journal), accent. If they're just *operating the software* (saving an edit, confirming a dialog), Moss.
-
-### Light mode — warm parchment, matched aesthetic
-
-The doc is dark-only. Scribe today supports both light and dark, and we keep both. The light mode is derived to *match* the dark mode aesthetic rather than defaulting to system white-and-ink.
-
-- Page background: in the `#F5F1E8` warm cream family (specific values TBD)
-- Cards: near-white but slightly tinted
-- Text: deep ink `#14171A` (mirroring Obsidian)
-- Accent: same dusty violet `#5B4A8A` (works on both themes)
-
-The metaphor stays consistent across themes: ink on aged paper (light) ↔ parchment text on graphite (dark). Light mode is *not* the system standard look.
-
-**Known downside:** warm parchment backgrounds can fight with embedded color content. Mitigation: code blocks get a slight cool wash in light mode specifically, to keep syntax highlighting readable.
-
-### Status and priority palette — extend the doc's semantic set
-
-The doc's semantic colors (Success / Warning / Error / Info / Destructive) are leaner than what Scribe needs for task management. Rather than running a parallel palette, Scribe extends the doc by mapping its status/priority tokens onto doc primitives where they fit and defining new app-level tokens for the rest.
-
-**Status (task lifecycle):**
-
-| Token | Color | Source | Logic |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `status-todo` | Pewter `#3F4651` | doc | Neutral, "not started yet" |
-| `status-in-progress` | dusty violet `#5B4A8A` | accent | Active = brand moment per Hybrid |
-| `status-done` | Moss `#4A5D3F` | doc Success | Affirmative completion |
-| `status-cancelled` | Ash `#9C9A92` | doc | Faded, "let go" |
-| `status-paused` | Warning `#8B6F1E` | doc | Stalled, needs attention — replaces the old warm gold treatment |
-
-**Priority (loudness scale):**
-
-| Token | Color | Source | Logic |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `priority-low` | Info `#3D5A6E` | doc | Cool, FYI — quietest end of the spectrum |
-| `priority-medium` | Warning `#8B6F1E` | doc | Golden, mid-attention |
-| `priority-high` | Error `#C04A1F` | doc | Terracotta, urgent |
-| `priority-none` | Vellum/Ash | doc | No signal |
-
-The priority row reads as a clean cool→warm gradient (slate blue → golden brown → terracotta), which matches the semantic loudness — coherence the current ad-hoc palette doesn't have.
-
-**Other functional tokens:**
-
-| Token | Color | Logic |
-|---|---|---|
-| `wikilink` | dusty violet | Editorial brand moment per Hybrid |
-| `overdue` | Error `#C04A1F` | Same as priority-high — overdue IS a priority signal |
-| `toast-success` | Moss | doc semantic |
-| `toast-error` | Error | doc semantic |
-| `toast-info` | Info | doc semantic |
-| `tag-bg` / `tag-text` | accent at 15% / accent | Per doc pill recipe |
-
-Each token gets a `*-bg` companion at low alpha (matching the existing pattern in `theme.css`).
-
-**Removed:** the warm gold accent (`--color-accent-warm: #b8860b`). Its two jobs split:
-
-- Dates and timestamps (knowledge cards, event details, chat) → use `text-secondary` instead. Dates are metadata, not a brand surface; muted is the correct register.
-- Paused project status → use the new `status-paused` (Warning `#8B6F1E`) row above. Same golden-brown family, semantically aligned.
-
-### Typography — adopt the doc's stack and scale
-
-Adopt the doc's type stack and scale verbatim, with one deferred verification (long-form line-height in practice).
-
-- **Body font: Inter.** Replaces Scribe's current system-stack body font. Doc-defined; no Scribe-specific divergence.
-- **Type scale:** as in the doc table — Display 40 / H1 32 / H2 24 / H3 18 / Body 15 / Body small 13 / Label 12 / Code 13 / Tiny 11.
-- **Two weights only:** 400 regular, 500 medium. No 600/700 (reads heavy in dark mode and against the muted palette).
-- **Family rules:** Fraunces at 18px+ only (Display, H1, H2). H3 and below = Inter. Code = JetBrains Mono.
-- **Line height:** 1.5 body, 1.3 headings, **1.7 for long-form reading surfaces** (notes, journal entries).
-- **Sentence case for everything**, except the Tiny micro-label style which gets uppercase + 0.08em letter-spacing.
-
-Mechanical rollout — value swaps in `theme.css` plus loading Inter and JetBrains Mono from Google Fonts (Fraunces is already loaded).
-
-### Light mode — concrete palette
-
-Fills in the warm-parchment direction picked earlier. Treat these as starting values; tune in practice.
-
-| Token | Hex | Role |
-|---|---|---|
-| Page bg | `#F5F1E8` | Warm cream — the "paper" |
-| Card bg | `#FBF8F0` | Near-white, slightly warm — raised surfaces |
-| Inset bg (inputs, code) | `#EFEAE0` | Slightly darker than page, "inset" feeling |
-| Text primary | `#14171A` | Deep ink — Obsidian inverted |
-| Text secondary | `#5A5852` | Warm mid-grey |
-| Text muted | `#9A9890` | Warm light grey for hints/metadata |
-| Border default | `#D9D6CE` | Warm light pewter, hairline weight |
-
-**Code-block exception:** in light mode specifically, code blocks use a slight cool wash (e.g. `#EBEDF0`) instead of the warm inset bg, so syntax highlighting reads cleanly. This is the mitigation for the "warm bg fights colored content" downside.
-
-The accent (`#5B4A8A` dusty violet), Moss, Bronze, Oxblood, and the semantic color set are **identical across themes** — only the surface and text palettes flip.
-
-### Chat-bubble codification — keep the Illuminated Transcript pattern
-
-The existing chat-bubble pattern (informally called "Illuminated Transcript") gets written into the design system as a documented chat component. Other apps in the family that add a chat surface inherit the pattern; Scribe's existing implementation continues to work with only color shifts.
-
-**User bubble (whisper):**
-- Background: transparent
-- Border: 0.5px Pewter (was: indigo-tinted)
-- Text color: secondary (Vellum dark / `#5A5852` light)
-- Right-aligned, rounded except bottom-right (subtle "from-me" tail)
-
-**Assistant bubble (lit):**
-- Background: card surface (Iron dark / `#FBF8F0` light)
-- Border: none on top/right/bottom; **2px solid accent (dusty violet) on left edge only**
-- Box-shadow: accent-tinted glow + standard depth shadow (formula: `0 4px 28px rgba(<accent>, 0.14), 0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.4)` in dark; lower alphas in light)
-- Text color: primary (Parchment dark / Obsidian-inverted light)
-- Left-aligned, rounded except bottom-left
-
-The 2px-accent left edge is the "illumination" — like an illuminated capital in a manuscript. The shadow is the lift. Together they make the assistant bubble read as the *primary* voice, while the user bubble is the *margin note*.
-
-**Inline tool-call cards (`ToolCallCard`)** rendered inside an assistant bubble do NOT get their own border (per the border philosophy — the bubble already contains them). They use a slight surface tint to differentiate.
-
-### Iconography — adopt Lucide, enforce a scale
-
-Scribe currently hand-inlines SVG paths in 16+ Vue files, with 5 different stroke weights and 8+ different sizes. The visual style is already outline + rounded caps + `currentColor` stroke (matches the doc's intent), but there's no shared source and no scale discipline.
-
-**Migration policy:**
-
-1. **Install `lucide-vue-next`** as the icon source. Replace hand-inlined SVGs with imported components. Single source of truth.
-2. **Strict size scale: 16px and 24px only.** Today's mix of 12/13/14/15/17/18/20 collapses to those two. 16 for inline-with-text and small affordances; 24 for nav and primary actions.
-3. **Stroke weight per the doc: 1.5 at 24px, 1 at 16px.** Lighter than the current default of 2 — reads more refined, matches the muted palette philosophy. Overrides Lucide's default.
-4. **Outline by default; filled only for active/selected state.** Introduces a new affordance Scribe doesn't currently use — bookmark/pin/star icons can switch outline → filled to indicate active state. Reserve filled style strictly for this.
-5. **No emoji in chrome.** Replace the 3 files' emoji usage in UI labels/buttons/badges/empty states with Lucide equivalents. Emoji remain fine in *user content* (note bodies, chat messages the user typed).
-
-Work cost: ~30-60 individual icon swaps across the 16 files. Mechanical; doesn't require redesign of any component.
-
-### Voice and tone — adopt principles, defer formal audit
-
-The doc's voice register applies to Scribe (understated mythic — plain for functional UI, flavored for empty/error/loading states). No formal sweep of every UI string yet.
-
-**Approach:** apply the voice opportunistically as components are touched in the polish pass — when redesigning a settings tab, an empty state, or an error toast, rewrite the copy at the same time using the doc's register and examples table as the guide. A standalone audit pass is deferred unless drift becomes visible.
-
-### Border philosophy — structural, not decorative
-
-The doc treats borders as *structural* (Pewter neutral hairlines that say "boundary"), not decorative (Scribe today uses indigo-tinted borders that say "branded edge"). That principle suggests removing borders in places where surface tint and spacing already communicate separation.
-
-**Borders to remove:**
-
-- List rows (NotesListView, TasksListView, conversation history) — surface contrast + spacing should separate rows; current border reads as "boxed-in"
-- Inline `ToolCallCard` inside chat bubbles — the bubble is already a container; an extra border feels like double-wrapping
-- Filter chips and search-bar pills with a background tint — background does the work
-- Empty-state callouts with dashed/bordered "nothing here yet" boxes — tinted background reads cleaner
-
-**Borders to keep (genuinely structural):**
-
-- Standalone card containers (Notes viewer, Task viewer, the new daily prep card)
-- Modal / dialog edges
-- Code blocks (separates content type, not just space)
-- Focus rings (accessibility)
-- Major section dividers within a panel
-
-Border weight is not load-bearing for Scribe — happy to use the doc's 0.5px hairline default; the *placement* discipline matters more than the weight.

Emoji-as-icons (`✕`, `✓`, `🎤`, `📎`, `↻`, `↑`, `&times;`, `☀`/`☾`) swept across the chrome. AppLogo wordmark and the GraphView D3 mount kept as the legitimate exceptions. |
-| 2 | `3d916d7` | Journal | Buttons audited; `↻` weather refresh → Lucide `RotateCcw`; assistant bubble line-height bumped; redundant `.journal-title` font-family dropped; dead `.news-section` CSS removed. |
-| 3 | `4192a64` | Chat | `.message-content` long-form 1.7 line-height on assistant bubbles; ToolCallCard outer border removed (bubble already contains it; error state moved to a left-edge accent); bulk-delete recolored to Oxblood with Trash2 icon; `.bulk-link` accent → muted text. |
-| 4 | `efb3534` | Knowledge cluster | `.prose` line-height bumped to 1.7 globally so all reading surfaces inherit. Save → Moss; Delete → Oxblood + Trash2; Edit / Advance → Moss; Convert / Share → Bronze. |
-| 5 | `ff498ce` | Project + Workspace | Project save panel → Moss; milestone confirm/cancel → Moss/Bronze; modal-btn-danger and per-row delete affordances → Oxblood; "Open Workspace" stays accent (project-surface brand moment). |
-| 6 | `541e2ed` | Settings | Densest button surface — every `.btn-save`, `.btn-primary`, `.btn-secondary`, `.btn-danger`, `.btn-danger-outline`, `.btn-toggle-open` reclassified per Hybrid; missing `.btn-danger` style block added (was unstyled before). |
-| 7 | `3c1ec40` | Edge surfaces | Calendar `New Event` → Moss; EventSlideOver Save/Cancel/Delete reclassified; HomeView hero CTA stays accent (brand moment); two-weights-only sweep across Header/Home/Calendar/Graph. |
-
-**Cross-cutting changes folded in as the work touched files:**
-
-- Long-form 1.7 line-height on `.prose` (PR 4) — applies to Note viewer, Task viewer, chat assistant bubbles, anywhere markdown renders into a reading surface.
-- Two-weights-only (400 + 500) — every `font-weight: 600` and `700` snapped to `500` across all surface PRs.
-- Hardcoded `--color-danger` in destructive button contexts → `--color-action-destructive` (Oxblood). `--color-danger` (Error terracotta) preserved for validation/error messages, per the doc's distinction between Error and Destructive.
-- Adjacent `&times;` / `✕` / unicode-arrow emoji swept opportunistically as files were touched (PRs 5, 7).
-
-### Out of scope — deferred indefinitely
-
-Items deliberately not addressed in this round; revisit when a real need surfaces:
-
-- Lucide stroke-weight overrides (doc spec: 1.5 at 24, 1 at 16; current: Lucide default 2). Touched components if they read too heavy in practice.
-- Filled-as-active icon state — no current affordance uses it; introduce when bookmark/pin/star toggles are added.
-- Type-scale / spacing-scale CSS variables — components keep literal values.
-- Token rename to `--fs-*` namespace — Scribe is the only FabledSword app sharing this codebase.
-- FabledSword lockup placement — waiting on the actual heraldic mark to be drawn.
-- Standalone voice/tone audit across every UI string — opportunistic-only; full sweep deferred unless drift becomes visible.
-- A handful of editor utility buttons (`.btn-suggest-tags`, `.btn-link-all`, AI assist generate/proofread/accept/reject set, etc.) — currently ghost-styled and visually compliant; revisited only if they read off in practice.

-### Open threads
-
-*New threads will accumulate here as gaps surface in real use.*
+- **Accent footprint.** Dusty violet marks Grimoire's own moments: the wordmark, active navigation, the editor's cursor and selection, tags and wikilinks, in-progress status, focus rings, and the call to action that starts something new (a first note, say). Operating the software uses the action colours: Moss to save or confirm, Bronze for alternatives, Oxblood with an icon to delete, Pewter ghost for tertiary actions.
+- **Light and dark.** Both are supported. Light mode is warm parchment (`#F5F1E8` page, `#FBF8F0` cards, `#14171A` text) rather than white, with a cool wash on code blocks so syntax colours stay readable. The accent, action and semantic colours are the same in both.
+- **Status and priority.** Status: todo Pewter, in progress the accent, done Moss, cancelled Ash, paused Warning. Priority runs cool to warm: low Info, medium Warning, high Error. Overdue uses Error. Each has a low-alpha `-bg` companion.
+- **Type.** Inter for UI and body, Fraunces at 18px and up (display, H1, H2), JetBrains Mono for code. Two weights only, 400 and 500. Line height 1.5 for body, 1.3 for headings, 1.7 on reading surfaces such as a note.
+- **Icons.** Lucide, at 16px inline and 24px for navigation and primary actions; no emoji in the interface.
+- **Borders are structural.** Cards, dialogs, code blocks, focus rings and major dividers get borders; list rows, chips and empty states are separated by surface tint and spacing instead.

 # Development
 
-## Workflow
-
-All development is Docker-based. Do not install Python or Node dependencies locally.
+## Running it
 
 ```bash
-# Start the full stack (app + PostgreSQL + Ollama)
-docker compose up --build
+docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build       # app + PostgreSQL at http://localhost:5000
+docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build app   # rebuild after a change
+docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml down -v          # stop and wipe the database
+```
 
-# Rebuild after backend changes (frontend changes require rebuild too)
-docker compose up --build app
+The image builds the frontend, so a frontend change needs a rebuild too. For quicker frontend work, run Vite against the running app; it proxies `/api` to port 5000:
 
-# Reset everything (wipes database)
-docker compose down -v && docker compose up --build
+```bash
+cd frontend && npm ci && npm run dev   # http://localhost:5173
+```
 
-# Run checks (lint, format, typecheck, tests)
-make check
+## Checks
 
-# Individual checks
+CI runs these on every push; locally they need `uv sync --extra dev` and `cd frontend && npm ci`.
+
+```bash
 make lint        # ruff check src/
-make fmt         # ruff format src/
 make typecheck   # vue-tsc --noEmit
 make test        # pytest tests/
+make check       # all three
 ```
 
-## Frontend Hot Reload
+Unit tests run without a database. Tests marked `integration` need a real PostgreSQL and run in CI's integration job, against a schema built by the real migrations.
 
-The Docker setup does not include Vite's hot-reload dev server. After frontend changes, rebuild the image. For faster iteration during active frontend work, you can run Vite locally:
+## Database migrations
+
+The container runs `alembic upgrade head` on every start, after waiting for the database to accept connections.
 
 ```bash
-cd frontend
-npm install
-npm run dev   # Vite dev server at http://localhost:5173
+docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml exec app alembic revision -m "short_description"
 ```
 
-Point the Vite dev server at the backend by setting `VITE_API_BASE_URL=http://localhost:5000` (or configure `vite.config.ts` proxy).
+- Number revisions sequentially (`0123_...`). Revision ids must fit in 32 characters, the width of `alembic_version.version_num`.
+- Write both `upgrade()` and `downgrade()`.
+- Adding a value to a `CHECK`-constrained column means dropping and re-adding the constraint in the same migration.
+- Keep migrations to schema changes. Filling a derived table from a large one belongs in a background backfill after startup, where its cost doesn't hold up the boot.
+- A migration that depends on application code (a key derivation, a serialiser) copies what it needs rather than importing it, so a later edit can't change what an old migration does.
 
-## Database Migrations
+## The plugin
 
-Alembic migrations run automatically on container startup (`alembic upgrade head` in the `CMD`).
+`plugin/` ships straight from git: installs fetch it through `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`, and there is no build step. After changing anything under `plugin/` or `.claude-plugin/`, run `make mint-plugin` before committing. Claude Code only refreshes an installed plugin when its version changes, and CI fails a plugin change that didn't bump it.
 
-To create a new migration:
-```bash
-# Inside the running app container
-docker compose exec app alembic revision -m "description_of_change"
-# Edit the generated file in alembic/versions/
-```
+The hooks must run on a bare machine: POSIX shell, awk, sed and the usual coreutils, plus `git` and `curl`. They fail open, so a slow or unreachable Grimoire never blocks Claude Code.
 
-Migration conventions:
-- Use raw SQL with `IF NOT EXISTS` guards for idempotency
-- Use `DO $$ BEGIN CREATE TYPE … EXCEPTION WHEN duplicate_object THEN NULL; END $$` for enum types
-- Number migrations sequentially (e.g. `0027_add_something.py`)
-- Always provide both `upgrade()` and `downgrade()`
+## CI and releases
 
-## CI/CD
+CI runs on Gitea Actions (workflow in `.forgejo/workflows/ci.yml`) in the shared `ci-python:3.14` image ([`ci-requirements.md`](../ci-requirements.md) lists what it relies on). Six jobs: TypeScript typecheck, plugin hooks, Python lint (plus design-token and dangling-style checks), unit tests, integration tests, and the image build, which waits on all of them except the plugin job.
 
-### Pipeline
+| Push | Image tags |
+|------|-----------|
+| `dev` | `:dev`, `:<sha>` |
+| `main` | `:latest`, `:<sha>` |
+| a `v*` tag | `:latest`, `:<version>`, `:<sha>` |
 
-CI runs on Forgejo Actions, consuming the shared
-[`ci-python:3.14`](https://git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/CI-runner) image
-via `container.image` (Python 3.14 + Node 24 + ruff + uv + Docker CLI):
+`:<sha>` never moves, so it is the rollback point. Images publish to `git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/fabledgrimoire`, with a registry layer cache at `:cache`. The build needs the `REGISTRY_USER` and `REGISTRY_TOKEN` (a token with `write:packages`) repository secrets.
 
-| Trigger | Jobs | Docker tags pushed |
-|---------|------|--------------------|
-| Push to `dev` | typecheck + lint + test → build | `:dev`, `:<sha>` |
-| Tag `v*` on `main` | typecheck + lint + test → build | `:latest`, `:<version>`, `:<sha>` |
-| Push to `main` | typecheck + lint + test | (no build) |
+Work happens on `dev`. A release merges `dev` into `main` with a plain merge commit; a dated `vYYYY.MM.DD.HHMM` tag, matching the version the image reports, can mark it.
 
-### Release Process
-
-1. Work on `dev` branch — CI validates on every push
-2. When ready, open a PR from `dev` → `main` in Forgejo
-3. Merge the PR
-4. Create a release via the Forgejo UI on `main` with a `v*` tag (e.g. `v26.03.23.1` — CalVer: `YY.MM.DD.N`)
-5. The tag push triggers CI → build job pushes `:latest` + `:<version>` Docker images
-6. After merging to main, sync dev back:
-   ```bash
-   git checkout dev && git merge main && git push origin dev
-   ```
-
-### Runner
-
-CI jobs schedule against the `python-ci` runner label and run inside the
-shared `git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/ci-python:3.14` image (see
-`ci-requirements.md` for what this project relies on from the image).
-The runner deployment lives outside this repo; image bumps happen in
-[CI-Runner](https://git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/CI-runner) via Renovate.
-
-`infra/runner-compose.yml` + `infra/act-runner-config.yml` document the
-runner-host deployment shape; the source of truth is the deployed
-config on the runner host.
-
-### Docker Registry
-
-Images pushed to: `git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/scribe`
-Cache tag: `:cache` (reduces build time ~80%)
-
-Required secrets (repo → Settings → Secrets → Actions):
-- `REGISTRY_USER` — Forgejo username
-- `REGISTRY_TOKEN` — Forgejo PAT with `write:packages` scope
-
-## Migration Chain
-
-Current migration sequence (all idempotent raw SQL):
-
-```
-0001 create_notes_table
-0002 create_tasks_table
-0003 task_note_companion (data migration)
-0004 merge_tasks_into_notes
-0005 add_chat_tables
-0006 add_settings_table
-0007 add_title_and_updated_at_indexes
-0008 add_users_and_user_id
-0009 add_message_status
-0010 add_app_logs_table
-0011 add_password_reset_tokens
-0012 add_invitation_tokens
-0013 add_tool_calls_to_messages
-0014 add_note_embeddings
-0015 add_oauth_fields
-0016 add_image_cache
-0017 add_projects
-0018 add_push_subscriptions
-0019 add_events              (dead code — internal CalDAV/Radicale table; Radicale was removed)
-0020 add_milestones
-0021 add_task_logs
-0022 add_note_versions_and_drafts
-0023 add_tags_to_note_versions
-0024 add_session_version
-0025 add_sharing_and_notifications
-0026 add_briefing_tables
-0027 add_api_keys
-```
-
-**Important:** Do NOT use `op.create_table()` or `sa.Enum()` — SQLAlchemy's event system can fire `CREATE TYPE` even with `create_type=False`, causing failures on re-run. Always use raw SQL with `IF NOT EXISTS` / `DO $$ BEGIN ... EXCEPTION WHEN duplicate_object` guards.

-## Project Conventions
+## Conventions
 
 ### Backend
 
-- Services: `async with async_session() as session:` — import from `scribe.models`
-- No `scribe.database` module
-- Blueprint per resource: `routes/notes.py`, `routes/tasks.py`, etc.
-- All business logic in `services/`; routes are thin wrappers
-- Permission checks via `services/access.py` — never inline ownership checks in routes
+- Services open their own session: `async with async_session() as session:` (from `grimoire.models`).
+- Routes and MCP tools stay thin; the logic lives in `services/`, shared by both.
+- Access checks go through `services/access.py`, never inline ownership checks.
+- Every wait on something outside the process has a deadline.
 
 ### Frontend
 
-- API calls via `frontend/src/api/client.ts` typed helpers (`apiGet`, `apiPost`, `apiPatch`, `apiDelete`)
-- Pinia stores for shared state; local `ref()` for component-only state
-- Composables in `composables/` for reusable behaviour (autosave, keyboard nav, tag suggestions, …)
-- Views are page-level components in `views/`; reusable UI in `components/`
+- API calls go through the typed helpers in `frontend/src/api/client.ts`.
+- Pinia stores for shared state, `ref()` for state local to a component; composables for reusable behaviour.
+- Colours, spacing and type come from the design system's tokens in `theme.css`, which is generated, so CI rejects an unknown `var()`.

 # Features
 
-Scribe is a self-hosted work system-of-record for software projects, built to be
-driven by Claude Code. There is **no in-app LLM** — Claude is the sole assistant,
-reaching Scribe through a built-in MCP endpoint and a bundled Claude Code plugin. The
-web UI is a clean surface for humans to read and edit the same data.
+Grimoire is a self-hosted system of record for the work you do with Claude Code. Claude records what it learned, decided and built, and that record reaches the next session, so a solution is recalled rather than reinvented. There is no language model inside Grimoire: Claude reaches it through the MCP endpoint and the Claude Code plugin, and the web UI is where people read and edit the same records.
 
 ## Notes
 
-Write in Markdown with a live-preview editor (Tiptap/ProseMirror). Headings, bold,
-italic, lists, code blocks, and task checklists render inline. A slash-command menu
-(`/`) inserts common blocks.
+A Markdown editor (Tiptap) with headings, lists, code blocks and checklists inline, and a `/` menu for blocks.
 
-- **Wikilinks** — Link notes with `[[Title]]` or `[[Title|Display Text]]`. Clicking
-  navigates to (or auto-creates) the referenced note; the editor suggests existing
-  titles while you type `[[`. Backlinks appear in the note viewer sidebar.
-- **Tags** — First-class `ARRAY[text]` column with autocomplete. Hierarchical tags
-  (`area/backend`) supported — filtering by `area` matches all `area/*` children.
-- **Version history** — Every body edit snapshots a version (up to 20 per note).
-  Browse, diff, and restore from the editor's History panel.
-- **Draft recovery** — In-progress edits persist across page loads and are restored
-  when you reopen a note.
-- **Convert freely** — Turn a note into a task (sets `status=todo`) or back again.
+- **Wikilinks**: `[[Title]]` or `[[Title|text]]`, suggested as you type; backlinks show in the viewer.
+- **Tags**, with autocomplete. Hierarchical tags (`area/backend`) match their parent's filter.
+- **Version history**: browse, diff and restore earlier versions of a note.
+- **Draft recovery**: unsaved edits survive a reload.
 
-## Tasks and Issues
+## Tasks
 
-Tasks carry status (`todo` → `in_progress` → `done`/`cancelled`), priority
-(`none`/`low`/`medium`/`high`), due date, milestone assignment, and a parent task
-(sub-tasks). Notes and tasks share one model — a task is a note with a status.
+A task is a note with a status (`todo`, `in_progress`, `done`, `cancelled`), plus priority, due date, milestone and parent task.
 
-- **Work logs** — Append timestamped progress entries (with optional duration) to a
-  task without rewriting its body; shown chronologically in the task view.
-- **Issues** — A task whose `kind` is corrective: a problem you fixed or are fixing,
-  with symptom → root cause → fix in the body. An issue can link the task it arose
-  from and the System(s) it touches.
-- **Recurring tasks** — An interval or calendar recurrence rule spawns the next
-  occurrence when a task is completed (a background job drains due spawns).
-- **Sub-tasks** — Any task can have children via `parent_id`; the viewer shows them
-  inline.
+- **Kinds**: `work`; `issue`, for corrective work, which can link the task it arose from; and `spike`, a time-boxed investigation whose output is an answer.
+- **Work logs**: timestamped entries that record progress without rewriting the body. They are what the next session reads first.
+- **Claims**: a session that logs on a task holds it, so after a context compaction the work comes back to that session, and other sessions can see who is on it.
+- **Recurring tasks** spawn their next occurrence on a schedule.
 
-## Projects and Milestones
+## Projects, milestones and systems
 
-- **Projects** — Group related notes and tasks. Title, description, goal, status
-  (`active`/`paused`/`completed`/`archived`), and a colour.
-- **Milestones** — Ordered stages within a project. A milestone is also the home of a
-  **plan** — its body holds the design (Goal/Approach/Verification) and its child
-  tasks are the steps. Completion percentage is shown on the project page.
-  Milestones are searchable by meaning (`search(content_type="milestone")`), and an
-  agent starting a plan (`start_planning`, `create_milestone`) is handed the active
-  milestone that already has its title or reads as the same plan, so steps are added
-  there rather than to a parallel plan. The match threshold is in Settings.
-- **Kanban view** — `/projects/:id` groups tasks by milestone in a column layout with
-  status-advance buttons on the cards.
+- **Projects** carry a goal, a status and a colour, and group everything else. Entering a project gives Claude a short primer: its goal, recent plans and their next steps, open tasks, its systems and its design system.
+- **Milestones are plans**: a body holding the design (goal, approach, verification) and ordered step tasks. Starting a plan that matches an active milestone hands back that milestone instead of opening a second one.
+- **Systems** are a project's named areas ("auth", "retrieval"). Records are tagged with them, each has a charter saying what belongs there, and each maps to a canonical area shared across projects.
+- **Duplicate gates**: creating a record that reads like an existing one returns the existing one to update instead.
 
-## Systems
+## Rules, lessons and moments
 
-A **System** is a per-project, reusable, self-describing subsystem or area (e.g.
-"auth", "billing"). Associate any note, task, or issue with a System so research,
-build-work, and fixes for the same area line up and recurring problem-spots surface.
+- **Rulebooks → topics → rules.** A rule in a rulebook applies in every project; a project rule applies only there. A project that departs from a global rule says so with an `overrides` relation.
+- **Rules arrive by retrieval.** Nothing is preloaded: a rule reaches a session when what Claude is about to do matches its trigger (`when_to_apply`), whether that's the operator's message, a command or a file being written.
+- **Moments**: a rule about *when* something is done (finishing a task, reporting back, pushing) can be mounted on a moment of work, and arrives whenever that moment happens, whatever the words look like. Settings → General shows which actions reach each moment.
+- **Versions and verification**: every edit to a rule keeps the text it replaced. A rule that asserts a fact about someone else's software can say how to check it and when it stops being true, and a sweep lists rules due for a check.
+- **Preferences** are rules with the force of guidance rather than obligation.
+- **Lessons** record something learned the hard way, keyed to the situation where it applies, and link to the rules they are instances of.
+- **Reply shapes**: the default shape of Claude's replies (completion report, plan for review, question) arrives at the moment it applies. Settings → General shows them.
 
-## Rules and Rulebooks
+## Snippets and the shape ledger
 
-Scribe stores the operator's engineering and workflow **rules** so Claude follows them
-across sessions.
+- **Snippets** are recorded prior art: a reusable piece of code with when to reach for it, its signature and its canonical location in a repo. Claude searches them before building and is shown matching ones before it writes a file.
+- **Forge integration**: with a git forge connected, Grimoire checks a snippet's cached body against its source and marks it current or diverged. Push webhooks keep that fresh.
+- **The shape ledger**: Grimoire extracts the code shapes from a bound repo and tracks how each is accounted for: an instance of a snippet, a deliberate variant with its reason, or a one-off. Coverage shows what is still unclassified.
 
-- **Rulebooks → topics → rules** — Rules are grouped by topic inside a rulebook.
-- **Rules arrive by retrieval** — Nothing is preloaded. A rule reaches a
-  session when what the agent is about to do matches its trigger: a command,
-  a file being written, or the operator's own message. `when_to_apply` is
-  therefore the field that decides whether a rule is ever seen.
-- **Global or project scope** — A rule in a rulebook is global: it applies in
-  every project. A project rule applies to that project only. Retrieval honours
-  the difference, so a session sees global rules plus its own project's, never
-  another project's. A project that departs from a global rule writes its own
-  and links it with an `overrides` relation.
+## Family canon
 
-## Stored Processes
+Projects on the same platform (Android apps, Go services, ...) share good ideas. An idea promoted to the family's canon reaches every project on that platform, and each answers it: adopted, a variant with its reason, or owed (filed as a task). `/family` shows the ideas and every project's answers.
 
-Reusable saved prompts (a note with `note_type=process`) — e.g. a drift-audit or a
-DRY pass. The bundled plugin syncs each Process into a local Claude Code skill stub
-(`/scribe:sync`) that auto-surfaces by relevance and fetches the live procedure on
-demand.
+## Design systems
 
-## Search and Knowledge Injection
+Tokens (colour, type, space, motion, ...) and written guidance, with inheritance: a project's design system can extend a house style and record where it departs. Grimoire generates a stylesheet from it, checks code snippets against it, and gives Claude the values to use before it writes UI. `/design-systems` edits them.
 
-- **Semantic search** — pgvector-backed similarity search over notes and tasks
-  (in-process `fastembed` embeddings; no external model).
-- **Proactive knowledge-injection** — the plugin's `UserPromptSubmit` hook surfaces a
-  short, high-confidence menu of maybe-relevant note *titles* into Claude's context
-  each turn; Claude pulls a full body only when it judges it relevant. Gated so it
-  stays quiet on most turns and never repeats within a session.
+## Stored processes
 
-## Knowledge Graph
+Saved procedures, such as a drift audit or a DRY pass. The plugin syncs each one into a Claude Code skill (`/grimoire:sync`), which fetches the live procedure when it is invoked.
 
-`/graph` renders notes, tasks, and tags as a D3 force-directed graph. Tag nodes
-cluster notes that share tags; invisible project hubs attract project members. Physics
-controls (repulsion, link distance/strength, hub pull, gravity); click a node to peek,
-click a tag to filter.
+## Search and context injection
+
+- **Semantic search** over notes, tasks, rules, milestones and systems, with embeddings computed in-process (no external model service). It falls back to keyword search if the embedder is unavailable.
+- **Context injection**: the plugin's hooks show Claude a short menu of possibly relevant records at the moments they matter: rules and prior art when a prompt arrives, before a command or a file write, and when a moment of work is reached. Claude opens a full record only when it judges it relevant.
+- **Tuning**: each surface has its own thresholds and budget, in Settings → General. Every change is logged with its reason, and retrieval telemetry shows what was surfaced and what was opened.
 
 ## Claude via MCP and the plugin
 
-The whole store is reachable by Claude through a built-in **MCP endpoint at `/mcp`**
-(Bearer-auth with an API key). The **Scribe Claude Code plugin** (shipped in this
-repo) wires it up:
+The whole store is reachable through the MCP endpoint at `/mcp`, authenticated with an API key. The Claude Code plugin in this repo adds:
 
-- a `SessionStart` hook that injects active-project
-  context so Scribe surfaces without being asked (fail-open if Scribe is unreachable);
-- universal process-skills — writing-plans, systematic-debugging, verification,
-  brainstorming — that route their output into Scribe;
-- your saved Processes auto-surfaced as skills.
+- hooks for session start, each prompt, before and after tool calls, the end of a turn, compaction and session end, all failing open if Grimoire is unreachable;
+- a project fence: a session belongs to the project its starting directory is bound to. Toward any other project it can read anything and file an issue. Editing that project's files, committing or pushing in its repo, or changing its records first asks you, in every permission mode;
+- skills for the working practices: using Grimoire, writing plans, systematic debugging, verification, brainstorming, reporting back, reusing code, shape accounting and family canon;
+- your stored processes as skills.
 
 See [API Keys & MCP](api-keys-and-mcp.md).
 
-## Sharing and Collaboration
+## The web UI
 
-- **Share** — Share any project, note, or task with users or groups at
-  `viewer`/`editor`/`admin` levels from the viewer/project toolbar.
-- **Groups** — Admins create platform-wide groups and assign `member`/`owner` roles;
-  share a resource with a group in one action.
-- **Shared with me** — `/shared` lists incoming shares with permission badges.
-- **Notifications** — An in-app bell (unread count, polled) fires when a project or
