Two-in-one cleanup motivated by the chat hang in dev 2026-05-22.
The crash root cause from the guarded-task traceback:
UnboundLocalError: cannot access local variable 'get_setting'
where it is not associated with a value
File generation_task.py:257, in run_generation
think = (await get_setting(user_id, 'think_enabled', 'false'))...
generation_task.py imports get_setting at module top, but a later
'if voice_mode: from ... import get_setting' block scopes it as a
function-local. When voice_mode=False the local import never runs,
but Python had already flagged get_setting as local for the entire
body — the think_enabled read at line 257 hit UnboundLocalError.
The line itself was dead-weight anyway. With the conversation+curator
architecture: chat ships tools=[] (think on a no-tools pass is pure
latency cost; nothing for the model to reason ABOUT in tool-call
terms), and the curator hardcodes think=False already. The user
setting was a holdover from before the architecture pivot. Removing
it entirely is cleaner than fixing the scoping bug to preserve a
toggle nobody should be using:
- generation_task.py: think hardcoded False. Removed the get_setting
call (which fixes the UnboundLocalError as a side effect).
- SettingsView.vue: dropped the Enable model thinking checkbox, the
thinkEnabled / savingThinkEnabled refs, the saveThinkEnabled
function, and the think_enabled load step.
- Migration 0050: DELETE FROM settings WHERE key='think_enabled'
to clean up any stored rows.

Fabled Scribe
A self-hosted second brain and project management application with integrated LLM capabilities. Write, organise, and act on your notes and tasks with the help of a local AI assistant — all running on your own hardware.
Features
Notes and tasks with a Markdown editor, sub-tasks, milestones, and kanban project workspaces. AI chat with streaming responses, RAG over your notes, and tool use (web search, calendar, weather). A daily briefing that digests your tasks, RSS feeds, and weather on a schedule. Knowledge graph, per-user/group sharing, PWA with push notifications, an MCP server for external AI clients, and an Android companion app.
Quick Start
Prerequisites: Docker and Docker Compose. 8 GB+ RAM recommended for LLM inference.
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. Go to Settings → General to pull an LLM model — qwen3:8b or llama3.1:8b are good starting points.
GPU: Ollama runs CPU-only by default. See the comments in
docker-compose.quickstart.ymlto enable NVIDIA GPU passthrough.
Development: To build from source, see Development.
