The Patrol page fetched `GET /api/ai/circuit/status` on every load, every 60 s poll, every return to the tab, and again in the background after Retry. The store's breaker state had one production reader: the `circuitBreakerStatus` memo in `usePatrolIntelligenceState`, which nothing read and which #2695 removes. An open breaker already reaches the page through `/api/ai/patrol/status` as the `circuit_open` blocked cause, and the paused banner shows its reason. ## Change - `stores/aiIntelligence.ts`: remove the breaker signal, getter, `circuitBreakerStatusSignal`, `loadCircuitBreakerStatus()`, its org-switch reset, and its `loadDashboardData()` entry. - `features/patrol/usePatrolIntelligenceState.ts`: drop the read from the Retry path's background supporting reads. - `api/ai.ts`: remove `AIAPI.getCircuitBreakerStatus` and the `CircuitBreakerStatus` type; nothing else used them. The backend route stays. - Tests: the client's unit tests and the store and page test mocks go. The store bundle test still pins the exact AIAPI read set. The breaker route stubs are removed from seven E2E specs. - Contracts: patrol-intelligence, ai-runtime, api-contracts and frontend-primitives say the browser reads no breaker status and how an open breaker still reaches Patrol. Each note sits next to #2677's correlation note. ## Evidence - Normalized production-build compare: only the removed store loader, signal, getter and client differ in `index.js`, plus the removed supporting read in `AIIntelligence.js`. `check-bundle-size.mjs` passes. - Private demo-mode stacks for the parent and this tree, driven by the same Playwright script at 1440x900 and 390x844. Across Patrol load, tab hide/show and stale-data Retry, the breaker read drops from 1-2 requests per phase to none. Every other endpoint matches, the Open in Assistant handoff is unchanged, and neither build logs a console error. - A forced `circuit_open` Patrol status still shows "Patrol paused / circuit breaker is open" on both builds. - `tsc --noEmit`, eslint, and vitest for `src/stores`, `src/api`, `src/features/patrol`, `src/components/AI`, the Patrol page test and the boundaries test pass, as does the full pre-commit battery. Stacked on #2695 (which stacks on #2687) with #2677 merged in, so until those land this PR shows their commits too. The 2677 owner agreed this read belongs in a follow-up. `git merge-tree` is clean against main, #2677, #2690, #2691 and #2693.
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.
- Releases and update channels: choosing Stable or Preview, beta and RC expectations, and how releases are tested and promoted.
- 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
