The 2026-08 audit examined 407 proposals. Every cross-language hit was wrong: the Python MCP tool-module canon (symbol `register`) was offered for each auth view's handleSubmit (it calls authStore.register()) and for the TS auth store's own `register`; Minstrel/Forge TS canon matched Python bodies by resemblance. Every cross-project semantic proposal was noise. - Canon carries the snippet's language; match_canon skips a sym canon whose family (py / js / css / sh / sql, by language ↔ by path extension) differs from the shape's. Unknown on either side = no gate. - The reference basis ignores a stoplist of generic verbs (register, load, save, get, …): a bare mention is not a call site of THIS canon; the symbol basis still catches a second definition, and the call-site relation moves to `uses` edges with #2870. - The semantic arm only reaches canon in the shape's own project and family; symbol/text still reach family canon elsewhere (note 2786). - _PROPOSER_VERSION 2 → 3 so standing proposals re-examine on the next refresh.

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.
