feat(prior-art): edit-time record-sync nudge — the sync class (#2708)
A snippet recorded AT the exact file being edited is not a reuse
suggestion — it IS the record of the file being changed. The write-path
hint now renders those as their own SYNC class: 'snippet #N records this
file — updating the record is part of the edit (update_snippet /
verify_snippet)'. Nearby and semantic hits stay the reuse menu.

The two classes dedup on separate per-session channels (exclude_ids vs
exclude_sync_ids, .ids vs .sync.ids in the hook), so a reuse hint shown
early in a session can no longer silence the record-sync nudge when the
recorded file itself is edited later. Sync surfacing is measured under
its own note_usage source (write_path_sync) — its pull-through rate is
the scoreboard for whether edit-time sync actually happens, per decision
#2707 (no forge connection; records stay current in the session that has
the context). Plugin 0.1.31.

Scribe plugin for Claude Code

Turns a self-hosted Scribe instance into a first-class Claude Code extension:

  • MCP tools over your notes, tasks, projects, milestones, systems, and rulebook (the scribe server).
  • Session-start push channel — a SessionStart hook injects your always-on rules + active-project context so Scribe surfaces without being asked.
  • Prior-art recall on writes — a PreToolUse hook on Write/Edit checks the file about to be written against your recorded snippets (what's kept at that path, and what resembles the code) and offers them before the helper is rewritten. Titles only, never blocks the edit.
  • Universal process-skills — using-scribe, writing-plans, systematic-debugging, verification, brainstorming, reusing-code (record and recall reusable code as snippets). Replaces superpowers.
  • Your Scribe Processes as skills — saved Processes are synced into local ~/.claude/skills/scribe-proc-* stubs that auto-surface by relevance; the stub fetches the live procedure via get_process. Refreshed each session and on demand with /scribe:sync.

It is designed so you can uninstall superpowers and disable auto-memory and depend on neither.

Install

The plugin ships inside the Scribe app repo, so the marketplace is that repo — you always get the plugin version that matches your Scribe instance.

/plugin marketplace add https://git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/FabledScribe.git
/plugin install scribe@scribe-plugin

On install you'll be asked for:

Setting What
Scribe base URL e.g. https://scribe.example.com (no trailing slash)
Scribe API key an fmcp_ key from Settings → API Keys (stored in your OS keychain)
Active project id optional — numeric project id to scope the session-start context

What gets wired

  • plugin.json mcpServers → the scribe MCP server at <base URL>/mcp (Bearer auth).
  • hooks/hooks.json → SessionStart hook (hooks/scribe_session_context.sh), fail-open: if Scribe is unreachable it injects nothing and never blocks the session.
  • hooks/hooks.json → PreToolUse hook on Write|Edit (hooks/scribe_prior_art.sh) → GET /api/plugin/prior-art. Returns additionalContext with no permission decision, so it can inform the write but never stop it; silent when nothing is recorded, which is most of the time. Two framings: a REUSE menu (similar/nearby records), and a SYNC nudge when a snippet records the exact file being edited — "updating the record is part of the edit" — each with its own once-per-session dedup. Toggle in Settings → Knowledge auto-inject.
  • skills/ → the universal process-skills, surfaced by description match.
  • hooks/scribe_sync_processes.sh (a 2nd SessionStart hook) + the /scribe:sync command → generate ~/.claude/skills/scribe-proc-* stubs from your Scribe Processes (via GET /api/plugin/processes); also fail-open, and pruned to match what exists in Scribe.

Notes

  • Set a version bump in .claude-plugin/plugin.json per release so clients pick up changes.
  • The session-start, auto-inject and prior-art hooks need only a read-scoped key; the MCP tools need write scope to create/update. Every hook is a GET for that reason — a read key cannot POST.
