Milestone 544, step 6217 (follow-up to #1778, which rewrote features.md and
api-reference.md in July but left architecture.md and configuration.md alone).
- architecture.md, configuration.md, development.md: rewritten against the
code. They still described Ollama, chat, SSE generation, voice, project
summaries, image caching, Docker secrets that the compose files don't use,
a raw-SQL migration convention the migrations no longer follow, a 27-entry
migration list, CalVer YY.MM.DD.N tags and the removed infra/ files.
- features.md: adds what shipped since July (spikes, claims, moments, rule
versions and verification, lessons, reply shapes, snippets and the shape
ledger, forge integration, family canon, design systems, retrieval tuning)
and corrects the Settings tabs and keyboard shortcuts (g g is the graph).
- api-reference.md: adds the endpoints for snippets, lessons, design
systems, family canon, platforms, shared areas, retrieval, rule versions,
relations and verification, forge connections, webhooks, scheduled
backups and the newer plugin hooks.
- api-keys-and-mcp.md: Settings tab is "MCP Access"; a plugin install
section; the tool-family table matches the tools that exist.
- design-system.md: the dated "decisions in progress" changelog (April
PR log, chat/journal/calendar surfaces) becomes a short present-tense
section; the stored design system is named as the authority.
- sso-oauth.md: the app is Scribe, not "Fabled Assistant".
- README: feature summary and doc table brought current.

A rule's home is its scope now: a rule in a rulebook topic is global, a rule on
a project applies to that project, and retrieval reads that directly (#4074).
A subscription had stopped changing anything a session received; a suppression
muted rules from a subscription. Operator, 2026-09-15: "we have global and
project scoped rules, we don't need the subscriptions now."
What goes, whole (rule 22):
- Migration 0101 drops project_rulebook_subscriptions, project_rule_suppressions
and project_topic_suppressions, and strips subscribe_rulebooks (and 394's
leftover exclude_always_on_rulebooks) from stored inception choices.
- Service, MCP and REST: subscribe/unsubscribe and the four suppress/unsuppress
operations. The Subscribers checklist, the subscribe chips, the skip buttons
and the Suppressed section in the rules UI.
- Inception asks two questions (design system, seed Systems). create_project and
decide_project_inception lose subscribe_rulebooks.
- Backup v15 stops exporting the three sections; older archives still restore,
the keys simply unread. Trash no longer hard-deletes suppression rows.
What changes meaning:
- get_applicable_rules is a project's LISTING: its own rules, plus the global
rules tagged to an area it works in. Untagged global rules apply everywhere
and arrive by retrieval, so they are not listed. A co_surfaces partner on a
different project is not dragged in.
- list_rules(project_id) lists that project's own rules.
- rules_payload drops subscribed_rulebooks and suppressed_*; the handshake's
brief form is project_rules alone.
- using-scribe's "Where a new rule goes" and inception sections, tool
docstrings and docs say global vs project. Plugin 2026.09.15.1620.
Milestone 414 step 2.

`retrieval_logs` was write-only. `record_retrieval` inserted rows and nothing
in the tree ever selected from them: the only `select()` over RetrievalLog
lived in a test. So #1038's gate — "build the reranker once telemetry shows
precision is the bottleneck" — was unsatisfiable by construction, and the one
real tuning decision on record (the 0.68 write-path threshold, #2223) had to
be reached by hand-probing the live instance with eight payloads. This adds
the half that was missing.
`retrieval_summary(user_id, days=30)` returns two aggregates side by side,
each read from the table built for it — NOT a join. NoteUsageEvent's docstring
is explicit that the two are complements ("RetrievalLog tunes the threshold,
this tunes the corpus") and that RetrievalLog's JSONB `result_ids` cannot be
indexed at the per-note grain, so correlating through it would be both slower
and less honest than reading each source directly. That corrects the approach
sketched on the task.
- `sources`, per surface: calls, zero_result_calls, cleared_threshold (how
often the best hit beat the threshold in force for THAT call), the
top_score spread as p10/p50/p90/min/max, avg_result_count, p90 duration.
Zero-result calls are counted apart from low-scoring ones — they are a
different failure and averaging them together would hide both.
- `usage`, from note_usage_events: ranked surfacings, ambient surfacings,
and pulls split into `pulled_by_agent` / `pulled_by_human`.
That split is not decoration. NoteUsageEvent's own comment says the mcp_/rest_
prefix is load-bearing and names #1038 while saying so: "is this dead weight?"
is answered by any pull, "was that injected line useful?" only by an agent
pull. `pull_through` exists to answer the second, so it counts agent pulls
over ranked surfacings; both halves ship so the first stays answerable.
Two things the code made me get right rather than guess:
- Distinct-note counts get their own queries. `count(distinct note_id)` per
(event, source) group cannot be summed across groups — a note surfaced by
two sources is one distinct note and would be counted twice. A wrong
number labelled "distinct" is worse than no number.
- No CASE in the GROUP BY. #2663 is the bug where a second case() rendered
its own expanding bind names, Postgres rejected the query, a broad except
swallowed it, and every counter read zero in production while mocked tests
passed. Grouping on raw `source` and classifying in Python cannot fail
that way. For the same reason the readout distinguishes `read_failed` from
an empty window, and its tests are integration against real Postgres —
percentile_cont ... WITHIN GROUP only proves it parses against a database.
Exposed as the `retrieval_telemetry` MCP tool, added to `_READ_ONLY_TOOLS`:
it mutates nothing, but its name carries no read prefix, so the completeness
test cannot derive it and it would otherwise have failed closed for read-only
keys in silence — the same reason `enter_project` is spelled out there. Docs
updated to name both exceptions rather than leave the rule looking derivable.
Scoped to the caller's own telemetry: a retrieval log records what one user's
agent asked for, query text included, and is not a shared record kind — the
owner filter is the whole access rule, not a shortcut past access.py.

Milestone #194 plugin/docs slice.
- plugin.json: "second brain" framing -> "system-of-record"; bump
0.1.11 -> 0.1.12 (any plugin/ change must bump the manifest, issue #1040)
- plugin/README.md + using-scribe SKILL + scribe_static_context: drop
events/typed-entities from the surface lists; "second brain" -> "system
of record" in the SessionStart context Claude reads each session
- docs/api-keys-and-mcp.md: drop the Typed-entities + Events MCP tool rows,
add the Systems row
- README.md: rewrite the stale front-matter (chat/RAG/calendar/weather/push
described a pre-pivot product) to the current Claude-driven work store
Deeper pre-pivot doc-rot in docs/features.md + docs/api-reference.md
(chat/journal/weather/web-research) is tracked separately as an issue.

The old standalone fable-mcp wheel/download flow is gone from code (no route,
no Dockerfile build, no FABLE_MCP_DIST_DIR). Update api-keys-and-mcp,
api-reference, architecture, configuration, development to describe the
in-app HTTP MCP at /mcp (Bearer auth). Untrack the 18 committed
docs/superpowers/ files so the existing .gitignore takes effect.
