The agent promotes a family idea when all three criteria hold, and no person approves it. The criteria are product text: services/family.py states them, and the promote tool's docstring names every criterion the service enforces.
- Criteria: each one vetoes on its own when its reasoning is blank. Platform terms also needs an applies-when and a platform scope; proven also needs named evidence. A veto keeps the idea a candidate and is logged, so it becomes precedent.
- Precedent: every promotion stores the decisions on the nearest ideas by meaning, plus any the caller names.
- Promotion sets canon, the applicability test and the platform scope, and opens an unassessed ledger row for each member project the promoter can write. Re-promotion moves the version past every version the idea has held.
- Retire and undo: undo reverses only the latest idea-level decision, restores its recorded before-state, and logs itself with the undone decision as its precedent. Settled here: leaving canon closes the unassessed rows but keeps the judged ones, which read as needing a recheck after a re-promotion.
- Triggers open evaluations but never promote:
- a cross-project lineage citation ("matching #N") on a note or task write;
- a same-meaning record in another project on a shared platform, on create, at 0.80 (measured: the known pattern's builds scored 0.79-0.82, an unrelated project's best match 0.65);
- a milestone closing on a platform.
Each fails open and rides the response as family_hint.
- Doors: seven MCP tools, /api/family REST endpoints, and a Family page (nav, /family) showing the criteria, the ideas, and the decision log with undo and retire.
- utils/recordHref.ts holds the one copy of "where a record opens", now shared with LessonDetailView.

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.
