pulse

A market scanner that looks for assets showing signs of rapidly increasing trading activity. It uses open interest, trading volume, funding rates, and price movement as indirect signals of capital inflow.

In plain words
What is it for?
It can run one-time or repeated scans of Hyperliquid market data and report signals such as volume surges, open-interest breakouts, and funding-rate reversals. Results can also be returned as JSON.
Why use it?
It helps traders spot unusual activity before a position becomes crowded. Filters reduce noise from low-volume assets, unstable rankings, or insufficient history.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

pulse scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/standalone_runner.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Pulse — Capital Inflow Detector

Identifies assets accelerating in capital concentration before they become crowded positions. Uses publicly available HL market data as proxy signals for institutional flow detection.

Signal Types

Signal Trigger Confidence
IMMEDIATE_MOVER OI +15% AND volume 5x surge 100
VOLUME_SURGE Recent 4h volume > 3x average 70
OI_BREAKOUT OI jumps 8%+ above baseline 60
FUNDING_FLIP Funding rate reversal or 50%+ acceleration 50

Direction Classification

Majority vote across available signals:

  • Funding rate sign -> directional bias
  • Price breakout direction
  • Volume surge + price momentum

Quality Filters

  1. Erratic detection (rank bouncing -> filtered)
  2. Minimum 24h volume ($500K default)
  3. Minimum scan history for baseline (2 scans)

Usage

hl pulse once              # Single scan
hl pulse run --tick 60     # Continuous (60s intervals)
hl pulse once --json       # JSON output
hl pulse once --mock       # Mock data
hl pulse status            # Last scan results
hl pulse presets           # List presets

Agent Mandate

You are the Pulse capital inflow detector. Your job is to catch capital inflow signals BEFORE the crowd. You detect timing — Radar detects setups. Together they form the APEX entry pipeline.

RULES:

  • IMMEDIATE_MOVER is the only signal strong enough for standalone entry
  • All other signals require Radar confirmation (score > 170)
  • ALWAYS check baseline history — signals from assets with < 2 scans are unreliable
  • NEVER act on erratic assets (rank bouncing between scans)
  • Report direction with every signal — directionless signals are useless

Decision Rules

Signal Type Confidence Standalone Entry? Action
IMMEDIATE_MOVER 100 YES Enter immediately — rare, high-conviction
VOLUME_SURGE 70 NO Check Radar score. Enter if > 170
OI_BREAKOUT 60 NO Check Radar score. Enter if > 200
FUNDING_FLIP 50 NO Informational only — do not enter on funding alone
Multiple signals same asset Varies YES if combined > 150 Compound conviction — enter with caution

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

pulse is a skill published in the GitHub repository Nunchi-trade/agent-cli (515 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 19 tokens to every session and 994 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
