The reply shapes are server product now, delivered at their moments, so the skill stops restating them. Gone from it: the "Every reply" list, the per-kind tables, and "The operator's own shapes come first" (preferences arrive beside the shape on the same moments). It opens by saying where the shapes come from (list_reply_shapes, the delivered core's header) and keeps the reasoning: sections chosen not filled, a settled decision acted on, placement from the record, who decides what, the assumptions an option carries, the completion report worked in full, and the second pass. 13.5k to 10.7k characters. The core gains the Finding kind the skill's table carried (2,150 of 2,200). Tests follow the content: the kind and Approval-row pins move to the shapes, a new test holds the worked example and the completion shape to the same sections, and the guidance-ownership registry reads the delivered shapes as a surface, owning the preference-wins and length topics there. using-scribe points at the delivery and list_reply_shapes. #5496.

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.
