scribe is a single-binary CLI that creates and maintains a personal, LLM-written knowledge base. It continuously extracts reusable knowledge from your git repos, Claude Code sessions (via 's FTS5 index) and Codex CLI sessions, links you iMessage to yourself as bookmarks (your own number is the world's most portable read-it-later list), and local files, then compiles it into a curated wiki that indexes for semantic search. Every LLM step resolves through one top-level provider block: Anthropic's Claude by default, or a 100% local Ollama server (qwen3 / gemma4 / gemma3, $0 API cost) — flipping the whole pipeline to free/offline is one line of yaml. Not a second brain. scribe writes a personal context corpus — durable LLM memory that survives session boundaries and crosses projects. You almost never read the KB directly; Claude Code and Codex do, every session. The human is at the end of the pipeline, consuming an answer, not navigating a graph. The corpus is plain markdown in git, so it outlives the pipeline that wrote it — if scribe disappears tomorrow, the KB is still yours. Not a RAG pipeline. Not a Karpathy-style LLM wiki.

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.
The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
