Agent Pulse Skill — Setup Guide

Source: jane-o-o-o-o/agent-pulse-skill GitHub: jane-o-o-o-o/agent-pulse-skill Skills: 1 skill (agent-pulse) · 32.4K installs 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

  1. pip install agentpulse-cli
  2. npx skills add jane-o-o-o-o/agent-pulse-skill --skill agent-pulse
  3. 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
