# Fabled Scribe

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.

## 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.

## Quick Start

**Prerequisites:** Docker and Docker Compose. No GPU or local model needed — Claude is the sole assistant, reached over MCP.

Download [`docker-compose.quickstart.yml`](docker-compose.quickstart.yml) from this repo, then:

```bash
# Optional but recommended — set a secret key
export SECRET_KEY=your-random-secret-here

docker compose -f docker-compose.quickstart.yml up -d
```

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:** To build from source, see [Development](docs/development.md).
