First consumer of the forge adapter. attach_live_body decorates both pull surfaces (MCP get_snippet, REST detail) with body_source + body_freshness when the instance has a forge: 'current' means the cached code was just found verbatim (whitespace-normalized, the same normalization the verdict hash uses) in the fetched file, and provenance restamps to the file's last commit — reflected in the response and persisted in the background. A snippet body is a FRAGMENT of its file, so a fetch can honestly CONFIRM the cache or report divergence, never clobber the record with the whole file: 'diverged' is the reader's information, and a 404 stamps the mechanically-true 'missing' verdict into the existing attention state — once, not on every pull of an already-flagged record. The probe never raises and never blocks past 2.5s (tighter than the adapter's own timeout — the pull is where a session decides whether pulling is worth it, #2663's finding); a hung forge costs bounded time and the cache serves. A no-forge instance's response stays byte-identical to today's (rule #115 baseline, pinned by test). services/background.py is the new one home for fire-and-forget tasks with strong references (the #2663 GC footgun) — telemetry's two copies predate it and keep their bespoke canaries; new callers use this.

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.
