rcourtman fb84cdaebf Drop the unread points response meta from the recovery decode
After the useRecoveryPoints trim in #2773 the TrueNAS Protection tab
reads only the points. The decode still carried the endpoint's
pagination meta (page, limit, total, totalPages) through
normalizeRecoveryMeta, the meta field on both points response types, the
hook's initialValue and several test fixtures, none of which anything
reads.

A whole-program checker scan over src and tests (positive control: the
data member, read in the hook and a test; negative control: eight
planted readers all found) showed zero reads of the normalized or
transport meta. The one read of the transport meta was the decode
itself, and the four RecoveryResponseMeta members were read only inside
normalizeRecoveryMeta. The response is never spread, serialized or
iterated, and the query layer treats the value as opaque.

Remove the decode, the meta fields on RecoveryPointsResponse and
RecoveryPointsTransportResponse, the initialValue meta and the meta
fixtures. RecoveryResponseMeta stays: the protection postures response
type still declares it.

recoveryTransport.test.ts pins the new shape: the response types'
keys are exactly data (a type-level pin that fails under tsc), and a
backend-shaped response that includes meta decodes to the points alone.
The backend response and internal/api/recovery_handlers.go are
unchanged, and the contract prose now says the frontend decode carries
the points alone.

A before/after production build pair differs in one chunk (the TrueNAS
page chunk, 387 bytes smaller) and only by the removed statements; the
CSS and the other 93 files are identical apart from chunk hashes. The
TrueNAS Protection tab shows the same rows, filters, search results and
detail panel at desktop and phone width, and the backend still sends
meta in every response. Coverage of the hook and the decode loses
nothing but the removed meta statements.

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.

Localized getting started guides: Deutsch · Español

Platforms and agents

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

Pulse Intelligence

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

Plans and managed access

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.
