The current Mac application and website are developed in a private repository. Their current source is not included here. The historical Mac edition through 0.15.8 retains its original MIT license in Git history and version tags; free installers remain available. See historical Mac source and downloads.

Pulse for Claude Code

A Claude Code plugin that shows stock and crypto quotes with signed percentage changes above the prompt, with a /pulse panel for adding and removing tickers, refreshing prices, and pausing updates. Stocks and indices come from Yahoo Finance and crypto pairs from Binance's public Spot data. Requires Claude Code 2.1.287 or later, with Mods enabled.

Install from GitHub:

claude plugin marketplace add fatwang2/Pulse
claude plugin install pulse-cc@pulse

Restart Claude Code or run /reload-plugins, then add a stock with /pulse add AAPL or a crypto pair with /pulse add BTC/USDT, and open /pulse to manage your watchlist. See the Claude Code guide for commands, provider limits, privacy, and local development.

Pulse for opencode

An opencode plugin: a stock and crypto watchlist in the session sidebar, with today's line on every row and a detail view with the day's open, high, low and previous close, plus a one-line quote band along the bottom of the window.

Add it to ~/.config/opencode/tui.json and restart opencode:

{ "plugin": ["opencode-pulse-ticker"] }

See the opencode guide for commands and privacy.

Pulse for Herdr

A Herdr mod: a stock and crypto watchlist docked beside your agents, with today's line on every row and a detail view with the day's chart, open, high, low and previous close. Comes as a mod and as a "Herdr + Pulse" layout.

Ask the agent running in Herdr:

Read ~/.config/herdr-app/AGENTS.md, then add this layout: https://github.com/fatwang2/Pulse/tree/main/herdr/pulse-layout

See the Herdr guide for the mod on its own, usage and privacy.

Pulse for Omarchy

An independent Pulse edition for Omarchy, with market data in the bar, named watchlists, symbol search, quote details, charts, and theme-aware presentation. Requires Omarchy 4 and its Quickshell shell.

The existing managed installation continues to use the standalone repository while its installation and update path is migrated:

omarchy plugin add https://github.com/fatwang2/omarchy-pulse.git --enable

The implementation is maintained in omarchy/. See the Omarchy guide for features and local development, and repository transition notes for migration details.
