DevPulse
Orchestration hub for AIPass. The user's primary AI collaborator — designs, plans, debugs, coordinates all 12 other branches, and builds its own modules.
DevPulse handles the day-to-day: working with the user to plan, design, troubleshoot, and adjust. It builds its own modules directly (watchdog, feedback, json_handler), manages all git operations for the project, dispatches heavy multi-file builds to sub-agents, and ventures into other branches to investigate, debug, and fix small bugs. The only branch with git write access.

Say "hi" and DevPulse picks up where the last session left off — reads identity, memory, inbox, and git status automatically.

Git Operations
DevPulse is the only branch with git write access. All git/gh commands are blocked at the project level — drone bypasses via subprocess with a tier system that grants write only to devpulse.
Workflow: work on dev branch, PR to main when satisfied. Agents build and test, devpulse reviews and commits.
drone @git status --all # Full repo changes
drone @git commit "msg" --all # Commit all changes
drone @git dev-pr "description" # PR dev→main
drone @git merge <PR#> # Merge PR (user requests only)
drone @git sync # Pull latest
drone @git log # Recent commits
Integration Points
Depends On
| Branch | What for |
|---|---|
| drone | Command routing, subprocess, @branch resolution |
| ai_mail | Dispatch (send + wake agents), email delivery |
| flow | FPLANs (building), DPLANs (planning), APLANs (autonomous) |
| seedgo | Standards audits, checkers (35 standards) |
| prax | Monitoring, logs, dashboard |
| memory | ChromaDB vectors, archival, search |
Provides To
All branches via dispatch orchestration. Watchdog monitoring for any dispatched agent. Feedback channel for cross-branch communication. Git operations (commit, PR, merge) for the entire project.
