Category: Agent Observability & Monitoring
First Seen: May 27, 2026 (catalogued August 15, 2026 sweep; +218 installs in the sweep hour on the hot leaderboard)
Quality Tier: 🟢 Production (all three security audits pass)
agent-pulse teaches the agent to use the installed agent-pulse CLI as the source of truth for local AI-agent activity. The PyPI package is agentpulse-cli while the command remains agent-pulse. The skill prefers running the CLI and summarizing its output over reading Agent Pulse source code, and handles platform quirks (emoji and box-drawing output requires UTF-8 mode on Windows). It was the fastest-rising new skill on the hot leaderboard during this sweep.
Installation¶
npx skills add jane-o-o-o-o/agent-pulse-skill --skill agent-pulse
CLI dependency:
pip install agentpulse-cli
On Windows, enable UTF-8 before running because Agent Pulse output contains emoji and box drawing:
$env:PYTHONUTF8='1'
$env:PYTHONIOENCODING='utf-8'
Prerequisites¶
| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Python + pip | For the agentpulse-cli package |
| Node.js + npx | For the skill installer |
| Local agent environment | Agent activity to monitor |
What It Provides¶
| Capability | Notes |
|---|---|
| Activity source of truth | agent-pulse CLI as the canonical view of local agent activity |
| Run summaries | Summarize agent runs from CLI output |
| Cross-platform support | Windows (with UTF-8 mode), macOS, Linux |
| Lightweight install | Single PyPI package |
Quick Start¶
pip install agentpulse-clinpx skills add jane-o-o-o-o/agent-pulse-skill --skill agent-pulse- Ask: "show me recent local agent activity and summarize what has been running"
CorpusIQ Use Cases¶
| Use Case | How |
|---|---|
| Agent fleet visibility | Monitor local agent activity across the Spark and worker nodes |
| Cron run audits | Verify scheduled agent runs actually executed |
| Debugging aid | Correlate agent activity with reported outcomes during incident triage |
| Observability reference | CLI-first monitoring pattern for our own agent telemetry |
Limitations / Verification¶
- Monitors local machine activity only — no remote fleet aggregation documented
- Output includes emoji/box drawing; pipe through UTF-8-aware terminals
agent-pulse --help # verify CLI is installed and working
