Second increment of the resource-payload-static-metadata gap: the full
activeAlerts array (~37-75KB at mock-estate churn) re-shipped whenever
any single alert changed. Alerts now ride the generalized keyed delta
transport: the per-field keying and transition handling in the state
delta engine is a declarative keyedDeltaFields list shared with the
connected-infrastructure projection, and activeAlertsDelta carries
id-keyed merge patches, removed ids, and order. Measured on the mock
estate the per-tick alert payload drops to 184-1981 bytes.
One boundary held deliberately fixed: alert application timing does not
change. The client applies alert deltas to an isolated baseline and
feeds the exact same applyActiveAlerts path immediately on arrival,
input-active or not — alert lifecycle truth never waits for the
operator-input idle gate (alerts subsystem boundary, documented in
6ecdc81d1), and the pending-acknowledgment safeguards see byte-
equivalent records. Alerts handed to the store are cloned so it never
adopts baseline-owned objects. Deltas without a baseline are ignored
and heal on the next full payload; unkeyable entries fall back to
whole-field diffing.
Remaining gap scope unchanged: snapshot-side static metadata
(canonicalIdentity alias history ~609KB per snapshot, and the partially
regressed aiSafeSummary/policy omissions) stays open under
resource-payload-static-metadata.
Pulse documentation
Start here for installation, platform setup, security, operations, and Pulse Intelligence. Commands, configuration keys, image names, API fields, and product identifiers remain untranslated in localized guides.
Start here
- Install Pulse — signed Proxmox/Linux installation, Docker, Docker Compose, Kubernetes, and first-run setup.
- Production deployment and security — least-privilege Proxmox setup, root-agent boundaries, discovery, supply-chain verification, plan limits, scale evidence, and a rollout checklist.
- Upgrade from Pulse v5 — migration prerequisites, rollback, agent continuity, and post-upgrade checks.
- Configure Pulse — authentication, notifications, discovery, retention, and system settings.
- Deployment models — data locations, lifecycle, and differences between supported deployment paths.
- Troubleshooting and FAQ — common failures, diagnostics, and operator questions.

Platforms and agents
- Proxmox Backup Server
- Proxmox Mail Gateway
- Docker and Podman
- Kubernetes and Helm
- TrueNAS SCALE and CORE
- Unified Agent
- Agent security
- VM disk monitoring
- ZFS monitoring
- Temperature monitoring
VMware vSphere support is early access. Current builds expose dedicated vSphere inventory and recovery context, but operators should validate the integration against their own vCenter before production use.
Monitoring and operations
- Metrics history
- Recovery data
- Webhooks
- Automatic updates
- Centralized agent management (Pro)
- Operational trust model
- Current product screenshots
Pulse Intelligence
- Assistant, Patrol, and external-agent overview
- Patrol modes and safety
- Assistant safety model
- External agent HTTP and MCP substrate
Patrol watch-only analysis is available on Community with a local model or the operator's own provider. Investigation and governed fixes require the relevant Pulse Pro capabilities.
Security, privacy, and access
- Production deployment and security
- Security review scope
- Authentication and credential storage review packet
- Security guide
- Privacy and telemetry disclosure
- OIDC and SSO
- Proxy authentication
- Role-based access control (Pro)
- Audit logging (Pro)
- Reverse proxy configuration
- Code-signing policy
Plans and managed access
- Community, Relay, and Pro capabilities
- Relay and Pulse Mobile handoff
- Multi-tenant organizations (Enterprise/custom)
- Provider-hosted MSP operations (request-assisted)
Pulse Cloud is not generally available. Ordinary self-hosted Pulse remains the primary installation path; MSP and Enterprise access are explicit commercial paths rather than defaults in self-hosted setup.
Development and reference
Detailed design notes and dated migration specifications may remain in this directory for maintainers, but they are not operator setup guides unless they are linked from the sections above.
Previous versions and migrations
- Upgrade from v4 to v5
- Retired unified-navigation migration — historical context only; current Pulse uses platform-shaped navigation.
- Move a Pulse installation
