feat(plugin): write-path trigger — offer prior art before code is rewritten
The milestone headline. Auto-inject fires on the operator's prompt; the
moment reuse is actually lost is later, when the agent decides mid-task to
write a helper. A PreToolUse hook on Write|Edit now fires there.

Channel: `additionalContext` with NO permissionDecision, so the note reaches
Claude beside the tool result and the write is never blocked — a recall aid
must not be able to stop the operator's work. Plain stdout would have been
invisible to the model, and deny/ask would have made a nudge into a gate.

Two arms, different in kind:
- BY PLACE — a snippet recorded at this path (or its directory) is prior art
  by definition, not resemblance, so it is neither scored nor thresholded.
  This is what #2083's reverse lookup was built to answer.
- BY MEANING — semantic search restricted to snippets (new `note_type` filter
  on semantic_search_notes) over the code about to be written.
Place ranks first; the top-k cap spans both arms.

Gates carried over from milestone 93 verbatim: threshold, margin, session
dedup, titles-never-bodies. Own `source='write_path'` in retrieval_logs so
precision is tunable separately — the docstring records that the place arm
is unlogged and hands that to #2085.

Its own on/off in Settings but the SAME threshold/top-k: one "how loud may
Scribe be" knob is easier to reason about than two that drift, and splitting
them later is then a data-backed change rather than a guess.

Details worth keeping: the hook sends a REPO-RELATIVE path because that is
how locations are recorded; the git remote resolves to a project and is never
used as the location `repo` filter (different namespaces, would silently
match nothing); the endpoint stays a GET because a read-scoped API key cannot
POST and every other hook depends on that.

Scribe plugin for Claude Code

Turns a self-hosted Scribe instance into a first-class Claude Code extension:

  • MCP tools over your notes, tasks, projects, milestones, systems, and rulebook (the scribe server).
  • Session-start push channel — a SessionStart hook injects your always-on rules + active-project context so Scribe surfaces without being asked.
  • Prior-art recall on writes — a PreToolUse hook on Write/Edit checks the file about to be written against your recorded snippets (what's kept at that path, and what resembles the code) and offers them before the helper is rewritten. Titles only, never blocks the edit.
  • Universal process-skills — using-scribe, writing-plans, systematic-debugging, verification, brainstorming, reusing-code (record and recall reusable code as snippets). Replaces superpowers.
  • Your Scribe Processes as skills — saved Processes are synced into local ~/.claude/skills/scribe-proc-* stubs that auto-surface by relevance; the stub fetches the live procedure via get_process. Refreshed each session and on demand with /scribe:sync.

It is designed so you can uninstall superpowers and disable auto-memory and depend on neither.

Install

The plugin ships inside the Scribe app repo, so the marketplace is that repo — you always get the plugin version that matches your Scribe instance.

/plugin marketplace add https://git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/FabledScribe.git
/plugin install scribe@scribe-plugin

On install you'll be asked for:

Setting What
Scribe base URL e.g. https://scribe.example.com (no trailing slash)
Scribe API key an fmcp_ key from Settings → API Keys (stored in your OS keychain)
Active project id optional — numeric project id to scope the session-start context

What gets wired

  • plugin.json mcpServers → the scribe MCP server at <base URL>/mcp (Bearer auth).
  • hooks/hooks.json → SessionStart hook (hooks/scribe_session_context.sh), fail-open: if Scribe is unreachable it injects nothing and never blocks the session.
  • hooks/hooks.json → PreToolUse hook on Write|Edit (hooks/scribe_prior_art.sh) → GET /api/plugin/prior-art. Returns additionalContext with no permission decision, so it can inform the write but never stop it; silent when nothing is recorded, which is most of the time. Toggle in Settings → Knowledge auto-inject.
  • skills/ → the universal process-skills, surfaced by description match.
  • hooks/scribe_sync_processes.sh (a 2nd SessionStart hook) + the /scribe:sync command → generate ~/.claude/skills/scribe-proc-* stubs from your Scribe Processes (via GET /api/plugin/processes); also fail-open, and pruned to match what exists in Scribe.

Notes

  • Set a version bump in .claude-plugin/plugin.json per release so clients pick up changes.
  • The session-start, auto-inject and prior-art hooks need only a read-scoped key; the MCP tools need write scope to create/update. Every hook is a GET for that reason — a read key cannot POST.
