Open Pulse
In the Manager’s top toolbar, click the Pulse icon (waveform icon) to open the Pulse panel.- When there are new Pulse updates you haven’t viewed yet, a small dot will appear on the icon.
- The Pulse panel is located on the right side of the interface, sharing space with the project list and scheduled tasks — you can switch between them at any time.
What Pulse Shows
Pulse content is automatically generated by Manager based on the current state of your tasks, presented in a structured and visual format. Common elements include:| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Task Overview | Execution status of all current tasks at a glance |
| Progress | Completion status across different stages |
| Dependencies | Relationships and flow between task steps |
| Deliverables | Summaries or previews of final outputs |
Customize Pulse Styles
The core strength of Pulse is full visual customization — done entirely through conversation. No parameters, no configs. Just describe what you want.First-Time Customization
Describe Your Style
Tell Manager what you want. For example:
“Create a dark-themed topology view showing task relationships with nodes and connections.”
Save Style Templates
Once you’re satisfied with a style, a New Style card will appear in the panel. You can:- Adjust — Continue refining the style through conversation.
- Save Style — Store the current style as a named template.
Manage Saved Templates
From the style menu in the top-right corner of the panel, you can:- View all saved style templates
- Switch between styles
- Delete templates you no longer need
Use Cases
- Parallel Development Monitoring
- Project Progress Reporting
- Long-Term Project Tracking
- Personalized Workspace
When multiple Workers are handling different modules, Pulse can consolidate their statuses into a single topology view — clearly showing what’s done, in progress, or blocked.
Notes
The Pulse panel may display custom background visuals defined by the selected style template. These are preserved when the template is saved.
Pulse content is generated in real time by AI — no manual refresh needed. The icon will notify you when updates are available.
If the Pulse panel is empty, the current Manager session doesn’t yet have enough task data. Once tasks are added, it will populate automatically.
