First real-world test of the #2562 fixes (Scribe issue #2569): a Forge session ran a whole-codebase audit and created zero Systems — endorsed by the shipped guidance, whose "no particular area takes none" clause read as an exemption for exactly the record type that enumerates the subsystem vocabulary. And the systems_hint was silent for a zero-Systems project, the one state nothing else nudges out of. - systems_hint gains a zero-Systems branch: prompt the FIRST create_system instead of going quiet. - create_system is duplicate-gated like the other creates (normalized name, archived included, fail-open) — liberal creation becomes safe by construction, so the guidance can stop preaching restraint. - Prose inverted on every surface (hint text, create_system docstring, floor bullet, using-scribe step 7): audits/sweeps take several tags and mint the Systems they name; the gate is the guardrail against sprawl, not holding back; only a record genuinely about no particular area goes untagged. - Plugin 0.1.26 -> 0.1.27.

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.
