The lesson editor now asks the question the create tool asks, while the writer still has the situation in mind. It offers three answers: - an instance of a rule, ticked from the rules the lesson resembles; - "No rule fits", with a required reason; - leave it open. The rules are fetched before the save from a new GET /api/lessons/rule-candidates. It runs the same rule_candidates search the create door replies with, and passes "search unavailable" through as null, apart from "nothing resembles it". An edit sends an answer only when it changed. Re-sending the same rules would re-stamp their judgments. Worse, a shared editor who cannot see the owner's rule would reject it by sending a list without it. Leaving a linked lesson open sends rule_ids=[], which is what clears the links. "Leave it open" is not offered once "no rule fits" is on file: the server has no way to take that answer back except by naming a rule. When "no rule fits" completes a convergence group, the editor says so in a toast, since the page it goes to does not recompute it. Guards check that the payload uses the names both routes read, that the three answers are offered, that the candidates route sits above the id route and keeps null apart from [], and that the editor reuses .rule-chip.

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.
