Spike #4389 read the spec, Claude's docs and a dozen servers: the field is for how the tools fit together, and the field runs ~600-1,600 characters. Ours sat at the 2,048 cap as a keyword index that also carried stance. - JUDGE, REPORT and MISSED leave the index. They fire mid-work, not at session start; using-scribe and reporting-back state them in full, and `placement`/`report_back` cue reporting in-band. No skill text changes. - The rest is rewritten as plain practices (1,503 chars) and keeps every session-start marker the ownership registry pins. - INSTRUCTIONS_BUDGET 2000 -> 1600; the three index markers are dropped from the registry; the miss-route index test now checks that the index keeps what_might_apply and stays off the route.

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.
