task_kind was only visible inside the task editor's Kind select, so every list surface rendered work, issue and spike identically and a list of tasks hid the fact that three different things were in it. ONE component, not a fifth spelling. The badge layer had already drifted — StatusBadge.vue is the recorded canon (#2960) but WorkspaceTaskPanel, ProjectView and KnowledgeView each carry their own scoped `.status-badge`. KindBadge is modelled on PriorityBadge, its closest sibling, which already does the thing that matters here: the DEFAULT value renders nothing. `work` is most tasks, so badging it would put a chip on nearly every row and say nothing — the same reason RuleListPane marks only `conditional`. COLOUR BY TEMPERATURE, measured rather than eyeballed. Issue and spike are opposite in character — corrective vs exploratory — so they split warm (warning) against cool (info), which survives being small and stays distinguishable without reading the word. Neither uses the accent; kind is not one of the places it is allowed. The raw semantic colour FAILS the contrast floor on the dark palette: warning on its own 12% tint measures 2.97:1 against AA's 4.5. So the text is the hue mixed toward --fs-text-primary, which passes and, because that token inverts by mode, follows light/dark for free. Measured both ways — issue 5.23:1 dark / 6.68:1 light, spike 5.33:1 / 9.26:1. `plan` renders hue-free and italic: retired since 0066, so a legacy row should read as archival rather than as a fourth kind competing for attention. In KnowledgeView it is passed as null instead, because the type badge beside it already says "Plan" and two chips reading the same word would look like two facts. Weight is 500, not the 600 the two older badges use — the house style allows 400 and 500 only, and copying 600 would spread it. SERVER FIX, without which this was decorative: dashboard's `_task_row` omitted task_kind entirely. The badge would have rendered nothing there while working everywhere else, which reads as "this list has no issues" rather than as a missing field. The guard is on the payload, where the omission was. Surfaces: ProjectView's three status columns, WorkspaceTaskPanel's two task lists, DashboardView's milestone and no-milestone rows, KnowledgeView's result rows.

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.
