21 buttons filled with --color-primary, which resolves to Scribe's violet accent: every auth Submit (Login, Register, Invite, Forgot, Reset), plus Invite, Add, Confirm, Restore, Generate, Log-save, Subtask-confirm, Toggle-open, the modal primary, the version-restore, the inline-assist button, the milestone-plan actions, the task-advance hover, and both empty-state CTAs. The house style is explicit that the accent never appears on an action button: action colours are universal across the family precisely so a Save button looks identical in every app, while the accent carries identity. Doing both makes the accent mean two things and neither clearly. Operator's call, and the reasoning is worth keeping: the violet-on-Scribe- actions treatment was a deliberate early choice to give the web UI its own personality, made when much more of the app was user-facing. That is no longer true, so consistency is now worth more than the distinction it was buying. Found in two passes, which is the part worth noting. The first scan looked for `.btn-*` and found 13. Seven more were the same thing under different names — .modal-btn-primary, .vh-btn-restore, .inline-assist-btn, .empty-action, .task-advance-btn — plus .ms-plan-actions .btn-primary, a compound override flagged in the previous commit. Searching by naming convention finds what was named consistently, which is never the whole set. Deliberately NOT changed: progress-bar fills, active tab / page / selection states, tag-pill hover, the duration badge, the skip link, the assist pulse. Those are identity and active-state, which is exactly where the accent belongs. After this the accent appears only there, which is what makes it read as identity rather than as decoration. Colour swaps only — 25 lines changed, no geometry, no structure, no templates.

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, 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.
