Step 4 of #278, product half. The audit that motivated it: one System in
project 2, thirty records tagged, nothing since July 28 — three days after the
feature landed. Not a discipline failure; retrieval was completely blind to
the association (zero references in embeddings, knowledge, search, auto-inject,
or enter_project), so tagging was a write-side label with no read-side payoff,
and labels nobody reads don't get maintained.

Three changes, ordered by what makes the others workable:

1. enter_project returns the project's Systems (id, name, first line of the
   charter). Load-bearing for the tagging instruction: you cannot ask an agent
   to check a record against a vocabulary it never sees. Trimmed because it
   rides on every session start; the full charter stays get_system's job.
   Present-and-empty rather than absent when a project has none — "no named
   areas yet" is information the create-the-System instruction acts on.

2. search accepts system_id, MCP and REST (#33). Implemented once in
   semantic_search_notes as an EXISTS against record_systems — an association
   filter deciding candidate-set membership before scoring, like project_id,
   not a ranking signal. The REST route's missing project filter stays #2463's:
   it carries a default-scope UI decision this change must not preempt.

3. The instructions (#119, _INSTRUCTIONS + using-scribe skill; plugin 0.1.25
   for the cache):
   - Tag as you write, with an executable test — "would someone investigating
     that subsystem want this in the pile list_system_records returns?" —
     rather than "tag appropriately", which is what died.
   - Create the System when the area has no record: the two-or-more test
     snippets use, plus "don't wait to be asked to name an area that plainly
     exists", because the agent's default was leaving un-modelled areas
     un-modelled forever.
   - State vs chronicle: dev-logs are written once and never rewritten; durable
     findings live in the System's reference note, updated in place — safe
     because note versions are the changelog, which has existed since the
     feature shipped and was never named as one.

list_system_records' docstring now sells it as the way to READ a subsystem,
reference note first. No auto-inject boost by System — vocabulary and filter
first, measure before adding ranking behaviour (the #2486 lesson).

Storing a design system never made a session aware of one. Rules get pushed
into every session by the SessionStart hook and returned by enter_project; a
design system had neither, so its standards were reachable only by an agent
that already knew to call resolve_design_system — the same silent failure as a
token nobody declares.

That gap was invisible while the operator's visual standards also lived in a
rulebook. Retiring that rulebook (which is what this unblocks) would have
deleted design guidance from every session with nothing to say so.

- services/design_systems.design_context() — the delivery side. Guidance is
  chain-merged ANCESTOR-FIRST: a child system holds only what it CHANGES, so
  its own guidance describes a departure from a house style it never restates,
  and the leaf alone is a fragment. Tokens are summarised (count + group
  names), not listed — a hundred declarations would crowd out the context they
  are meant to inform.
- enter_project returns `design_system`, null when the project has none.
- The SessionStart context gains a Design system block with pointers to the
  values, alongside the always-on rules.
- server.py's entity list gains Design system, including the negative: do NOT
  record one as a rulebook, because a token kept as prose cannot be resolved,
  inherited, rendered or checked.
- The rulebook-tier passage used "a design-system rulebook" as its worked
  example of a subscribed rulebook — it now teaches the opposite, plus a new
  "is this a rule at all?" test pointing at design systems, processes and
  snippets.
- using-scribe gains a section on building UI against the project's system.

bvandeusenandClaude Opus 4.8 b255a0f90e refactor: rename package fabledassistant -> scribe (code-only)
CI & Build / Python lint (push) Successful in 3s
CI & Build / TypeScript typecheck (push) Successful in 35s
CI & Build / Python tests (push) Successful in 54s
CI & Build / Build & push image (push) Successful in 1m14s
Renames src/fabledassistant -> src/scribe and all imports, plus the
default DB name and DB user/password (fabled -> scribe) in config +
compose. 952 refs / 154 files. Reverses the old 'internal name stays
fabledassistant' convention.

Code-only: live databases are still physically named 'fabledassistant'.
Deployed environments must set POSTGRES_DB / POSTGRES_USER (or rename the
DB) since the defaults now resolve to 'scribe'. Repo (FabledScribe), git
host (fabledsword), MCP (fabled-git) and the image name (fabledscribe)
are intentionally unchanged.

ruff check src/ clean locally; CI (typecheck + pytest) is the gate.
