status is durable and nothing clears it, so in_progress cannot also mean "someone is on this now". The claim is that second meaning, stored as who and when so it dies on read rather than needing to be cleared. - notes.claimed_by / claimed_at / claim_touched_at / claim_session (0110). - The server stamps it on the write that is the work: reaching in_progress (update or create, via apply_status_transition) and a work log on an open task. done/cancelled/todo release it. Live while touched within CLAIM_LEASE (2h); dead on read past it, with no sweep. - The plugin's PostToolUse hook on update_task/add_task_log binds the harness's session_id (GET /api/plugin/claim-session). It binds only to a live claim the caller holds; it cannot create one. - to_dict carries `claim`. Plugin version minted. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.
