Pulse – a local dashboard for Claude Code, approve tool calls from your phone (github.com)

Anthropic has introduced Pulse, a local dashboard for Claude Code that enhances user interaction by allowing real-time monitoring and approval of tool calls from mobile devices. Pulse operates with zero dependencies, ensuring that all data remains on the user's machine without any telemetry or network calls, thus preserving privacy. Users can track token spending, view the status of sessions through an ambient interface, and receive notifications for approvals on both desktop and mobile. One of its standout features is the ability to recover past sessions effortlessly, circumventing potential data loss from system crashes. The significance of Pulse lies in its empowerment of users to manage their AI interactions more effectively and transparently. Developers can now set customizable budgets for token usage, receive alerts when nearing limits, and conduct full-text searches across session histories—all while maintaining local data security. The system's simplicity, including one-command setups for installation and recovery, along with mobile notifications for commands needing approval, positions Pulse as a key tool for developers engaging with AI-powered workflows, ushering in an era of enhanced control over AI operations.
