Deliver 'don't silently lose work at compaction' via the mechanism that actually works. Verified contract: a PreCompact hook CANNOT make the model flush to Scribe (host hooks can't trigger model tool calls, and can't know the in-flight task ids), and its additionalContext only shapes the one-shot summary. The correct tool is SessionStart scoped to source=compact, which fires AFTER compaction and injects context the model reads. Our SessionStart hook is matcher-less, so it already fires on compact — it just said nothing compaction-specific. Now it reads the stdin event and, when source==compact, leads with a banner telling the model to reload the active project + in-flight tasks from Scribe and reconcile half-remembered state. Durable path = record-as-you-go (A4/B8) + this post-compaction reload. Refs plan 812 (A7); supersedes the literal 'PreCompact hook' idea.

Fabled Scribe
A self-hosted second brain and project management application with integrated LLM capabilities. Write, organise, and act on your notes and tasks with the help of a local AI assistant — all running on your own hardware.
Features
Notes and tasks with a Markdown editor, sub-tasks, milestones, and kanban project workspaces. AI chat with streaming responses, RAG over your notes, and tool use (web search, calendar, weather). A daily briefing that digests your tasks, RSS feeds, and weather on a schedule. Knowledge graph, per-user/group sharing, PWA with push notifications, and an MCP server for external AI clients.
Quick Start
Prerequisites: Docker and Docker Compose. 8 GB+ RAM recommended for LLM inference.
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. Go to Settings → General to pull an LLM model — qwen3:8b or llama3.1:8b are good starting points.
GPU: Ollama runs CPU-only by default. See the comments in
docker-compose.quickstart.ymlto enable NVIDIA GPU passthrough.
Development: To build from source, see Development.
