AgentPulse by Rectify is a visual GUI that wraps AI coding agent workflows — particularly OpenClaw-style terminal agents — in a point-and-click interface. Launched on Product Hunt on April 7, it lets developers spawn agent tasks, monitor progress, review diffs, and approve or reject changes without typing a single command. The interface shows a live feed of what each agent is doing — file reads, edits, bash commands — with the ability to pause, redirect, or kill tasks mid-execution. Completed tasks show a structured diff view with one-click accept or reject. Multiple agents can run in parallel with a dashboard overview of their status. AgentPulse is targeting developers who want AI coding assistance but find terminal-based agents intimidating or impractical in team settings where non-engineering stakeholders need visibility. The product also appeals to engineering managers who want to audit what AI agents are doing in their codebase without reading scrollback from a terminal session.

Reviewer scorecard
“The parallel agents dashboard is genuinely useful — I often run 3-4 agent tasks simultaneously and tracking them in separate terminals is messy. A unified view with structured diff approval is exactly the interface layer that's been missing from terminal-based agent tools.”
“One tool replacing Prettier + ESLint with massively better performance. The migration from existing configs is smooth.”
“Every developer who uses terminal agents eventually builds their own mental model of the scrollback. Adding a GUI abstraction layer means one more thing to learn, one more dependency to break, and a UI that will lag behind the underlying agent capabilities. Power users will stick with the terminal.”
“The speed improvement is not a micro-optimization — it changes CI feedback loops and editor responsiveness.”
“The key insight here is that AI coding agents are entering organizations through engineering teams but decisions are being made by managers and PMs who don't live in terminals. A visual layer that makes agent work legible to non-engineers could unlock a lot of organizational adoption.”
“Rust-based tooling replacing JavaScript tools is the trend. Biome is the most impactful example.”
“As someone who codes occasionally but doesn't live in a terminal, this is the interface that makes AI coding agents actually accessible. The structured diff view with one-click approve/reject is the exact UX pattern I'd want — no need to understand what happened, just whether the result looks right.”
