Pulse Score breakdown
Each component is scored 0 to 100 from public signals; a dash means no data for it. Methodology.
What changed: recent Kortix releases
- Permissions decide, for agents as for people. An agent that holds a permission can do the work end to end. kortixpermissions: all, "", and any list that contains "" mean the same thing. With all,…
- An agent can grant only what it holds. When an agent edits an agent's permissions, connectors, secrets, or Apps, it can add only what it holds itself. This applies through every route, change…
- One authorization path. Every agent with a kortixpermissions grant acts as itself, in every project. The per-project switch back to the authority of the person who started it is gone.
- One bad permission entry no longer empties an agent. An entry Kortix cannot grant is skipped, and the rest of the agent's grant stays. kortix validate still reports it.
- The Meta agent is platform-owned. It runs read-only and appears first in the agent picker.
- No more active-session limits. Billing is the only limit on how many sessions run at once.
- Your computer, on the web. Each physical computer appears once, even after you re-pair it. Computer Use runs inside the Kortix desktop app, and it asks for every macOS permission right after you…
- Edit a queued prompt in place. The prompt queue sits in its own card above the composer.
- Review Center has its own page. You approve requests in a modal on the approve page.
- Channel bindings live in one dialog, with one tab per platform and a settings dialog for each binding. Teams bindings read "Team › Channel" and include the thread title.
- Shared sessions show who sent each message, with an avatar per sender.
- Marketplace redesign: one card per item, a file tree in the sidebar, and related skills.
- Microsoft Teams is on for every project. There is no feature flag to turn on: connect Teams from the project's Connectors → Channels page. A tenant admin consents once, or the project brings its…
- What Kortix says to one person in Teams stays with that person. In a channel or group chat, only that person sees
- the prompt to connect an account or request access, with the connect button right in the thread;
- command replies;
- why a message did not run;
- approval requests and decisions.
- Every prompt records who wrote it, and the transcript shows the author.
- Agents can ask a person a question or start a group conversation with people, behind the humanmessaging project flag (off by default).
- An agent whose policy denies bash or edit can no longer open a shell through the terminal tools or write files through the memory tool.
- A refresh token cannot be replayed, and logging out revokes the session.
- Chat stays available while a connector waits for approval.
- The advanced panel preference keeps the panels you open.
- Sessions carry writable labels and metadata across the API, SDK, CLI, MCP and web, and the session list filters by label.
- Redesigned approval, preview and install consent screens.
- A split "Connect your computer" dialog with one-click CLI copy.
- Recent session views stay open across project navigation; the command palette finds sessions by ID.
- The desktop app copies the current session URL from the Go menu and reports sanitized crash telemetry.
- Push notifications route by browser presence: a session open in a tab does not also push.
