Per operator: the plugin lives in the app repo so it ships and versions in
lockstep with the app and the /api/plugin/context contract it targets (same
co-location rationale as the former in-repo MCP). A git-cloned marketplace
supports relative plugin sources, so the FabledScribe repo IS the marketplace.
- .claude-plugin/marketplace.json — source ./plugin
- plugin/.claude-plugin/plugin.json — userConfig (base URL, api key, project id)
- plugin/.mcp.json — http scribe server, ${user_config.*} substitution
- plugin/hooks/ — SessionStart push-channel hook (fail-open)
- plugin/skills/using-scribe — bootstrap skill
- plugin/README.md — install via the FabledScribe repo marketplace
Phase 2 of plan #755. Install/userConfig-substitution test pending.

Using Scribe
Scribe is the operator's self-hosted second brain (notes, tasks, projects,
milestones, events, typed entities) and rulebook, reachable through the bundled
scribe MCP server. Its value is mostly in what it already holds — so make
reading it a reflex, not something you wait to be asked for.
The reflex
-
Recall before acting. Before answering a question about the operator's work, or starting a task,
searchScribe (andlist_tasks/list_notes) for prior art — an existing ticket, decision, or dev-log — instead of re-deriving it or opening a duplicate. When a project is in scope, pass itsproject_idso results stay scoped. -
Standing rules are binding. The SessionStart context lists the operator's always-on rule titles. Treat them as binding. Pull full text with
list_always_on_rules()orget_rule(id)when a rule is about to bite. When a project is in scope,enter_project(id)also returns its applicable rules. -
Update over duplicate. When recording, prefer updating an existing note/rule/task over creating a new one. Search first; revise what's there.
-
Plans live in Scribe. For non-trivial work call
start_planning(project_id, title)FIRST — the plan body + step checklist live in thekind=plantask, progress goes in work-logs (add_task_log). Do not write plans/specs to local.mdfiles. -
Keep state honest. Set a task
in_progresswhen you start it,donethe moment it's complete; log progress as you go.
Other Scribe process-skills
This plugin also ships focused process-skills — brainstorming, systematic debugging, test-driven development, writing-plans, verification, receiving code review. Reach for the matching one when its situation arises, the same way you reach for this skill.
