Milestone #254 step 5 (#2294). /design-systems is the editable half of the surface /design already showed: that page is what the browser renders, this one is the record that ought to decide it. Each links to the other. The layout follows the model rather than decorating it. Two token lists, and they are deliberately different questions: Overrides — the system's own rows. Short by design, and EMPTY is the correct state for an app that hasn't departed from its family yet, so that empty state says so rather than looking unfinished. Effective — what it resolves to with inheritance applied, each row labelled with where its value came from. Provenance renders PER MODE when the modes disagree. A system can own `base` and inherit `dark` at once — that is the case the value column is a map for — and a single badge per row would have to lie about one of them. Rows whose modes agree (the common case) keep the single badge. "Defined here" and "overridden here" are distinct labels. Introducing a token and shadowing an ancestor's are different acts, and `is_overridden_in` is already false for the first. The parent picker filters out the selected system's descendants. The server refuses those anyway with a message naming the loop — but a refusal you cannot trigger beats a refusal explained well. Cycles that arrive some other way still render a truncated chain rather than freezing the tab: the client keeps the same defensive visited-set the server has. Three drift bugs caught while writing the styles, all of the shape this milestone exists to surface: - `--color-accent` does not exist. I had used it for every focus ring and active border; it would have rendered as nothing at all, silently. The brand token is `--color-primary`. - focus rings are ALREADY global in theme.css (`button:focus-visible` et al). My per-element rules would have overridden the house ring with a different one — the exact "bypassed abstraction" shape from #253. - every existing `.btn-primary` copy uses `color: #fff`, which is rule 52's prohibition and 67 live violations (#2275). This one uses Parchment and says why in a comment, rather than becoming the 68th. Also wires the project pointer into ProjectView's details panel, hidden entirely when no design systems exist (rule #115 — that is the ordinary state, not a degraded one) and saved through its own PUT, since clearing it is a real outcome rather than an omission.
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, 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 from this repo, then:
# 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.
Development: To build from source, see Development.
