The third rule arm, and the one the other two cannot reach. `write_path_rule` is keyed on code, `pre_tool_rule` on a command — both things the session is about to DO. A rule that governs what to SAY has no such trigger: extract intent from loose phrasing, raise a conflict before acting, hand off an action with its reason, end a finding with an offer all bind on a RESPONSE, and no tool call precedes one. The operator's message is the only query that exists before a response is composed. That hook searched notes alone, so no rule had ever been retrieved against a thing the operator actually said — and residency was the only surface those rules had, which is what milestone 394 removes. A SEPARATE FUNCTION, not a branch in build_autoinject_hint, because of its early returns. That arm bails when auto-inject is disabled, when the query is blank, when nothing clears the note bar — every one a statement about NOTES. Folded in, an operator who turned the awareness menu off would silently lose their rules, a coupling with no symptom since both look like a quiet hook. Two functions, two sets of gates, composed in the route. Guarded as "the rule arm never asks the notes arm's config", which is the structural fact. Joins _ARMS rather than getting its own test file. #3497's history is that the pre-tool arm inherited a defect from its sibling by being MODELLED on it instead of sharing with it, and a third arm modelled on two is two chances to repeat that. Repeat rendering, fresh-only counting, log-before-bailout, the kind register and the two-recorders identity are properties of every arm or of none. The bar is INHERITED and says so. 0.72 was tuned against code and commands; prose is a different query shape against the same documents, and triggers are written in the vocabulary of the moment — which for most rules is act vocabulary. Starting at the only number with evidence behind it and logging every call from the first deploy is what makes it settleable; guessing lower would put an unmeasured bar in front of a corpus that binds. k=3, anchored on this hook's own budget rather than the act arms'. RULEHINT_LIMIT is 1 because that arm fires before every Bash call; this one fires once per turn, beside a notes menu already spending three slots. And a prompt genuinely contains more than one act — "merge to main and then start on X" is two — where a command is one thing. `prompt_rule` added to RANKED_SOURCES: a ranker picked it, and a ranked source missing from that tuple is silently counted as bulk delivery and drops out of the pull-through denominator. The hook reads and writes the SHARED rule ledger under scribe-priorart, not a private one — one session keeps one list, aged (#3751), so a rule named here is not re-announced before the next Bash call.

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 (with an inception step that decides what each project inherits), 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.
