A rule mounted on a moment now reaches the session when an act reaches
that moment, with no semantic match involved:
- run_moment_arm on the pipeline: a lookup, not a ranked search. Each
line names the moment and the act that reached it ("at work.deliver,
reached by `git push`"), so a misfire is visible where it lands and
can be unmapped in-session. A repeat is cited, not quoted; fresh
rules are recorded surfaced under source moment_rule with the moment
in detail. No retrieval_logs row, as for the other lookups, so no
latency is persisted for this arm.
- rule_scope: a rule's home clause, moved out of semantic_search_rules
so the moment lookup scopes by the same one.
- rulebooks.rules_on_moments / mounted_moments.
- The plugin door: a catch-all PreToolUse hook (scribe_moment.sh). It
keeps /moment-tools' answer on disk for five minutes, so a call to a
tool that cannot reach a mounted rule sends nothing, and an install
that has mounted nothing sends one request per window. It shares the
rules ledger with the other arms and fails open silently.
- The MCP door: Scribe's own tools named by the shipped mappings carry
moment_rules in their response, so a client without the plugin gets
them too. The hook skips those tools. A guard pins the attach on
every one.

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.
