Code Intelligence
Give Pulse Agent controlled access to connected repositories so it can answer questions about how the product works.
Let Pulse Agent read approved repositories and answer from the code.
Setup
Code Intelligence needs a connected GitHub or GitLab integration with repositories granted to the workspace, then an explicit enable.
To set it up:
- Connect GitHub or GitLab and grant the repositories Pulse may read
- Open
Settings → AI & Agents→ Code Intelligence (/settings/pulse-agent/code-intelligence) - Turn on Enable Code Intelligence
When the switch is on, Pulse Agent can read and explain the granted codebase. Answers may take longer than replies that only use workspace records.
Workspace managers configure this page. Index runs are also limited to workspace managers and platform admins.
Repository access
By default, Code Intelligence only uses connected repositories that the member can access in GitHub or GitLab.
The repository list is the workspace grant list from your source-control integrations — there is no second copy of “which repos.” Manage GitLab connections (and the GitHub equivalent on Integrations) is where you add or remove grants.
If no integration with code access is connected, connect one before enabling the switch.
Extending access to all members
Admins can turn on Extend access to all members so people in the workspace can use Code Intelligence even when they do not have direct GitHub or GitLab access to those repositories.
Leave it off when repository membership should remain the gate. Turn it on when product, support, or other teams need grounded answers without a git seat.
Code index
A granted repository is not searchable until it is indexed. After Code Intelligence is enabled, the Code index card lists every grant.
Workspace managers can Index now, Reindex, Change branch…, or Generate repo docs. Logs opens the run. A repository can be granted and still show Not indexed until the first successful run.
Agent guidance
You can add guidance so Pulse Agent interprets the codebase the way your team does — repository conventions, architecture, or how to explain code in answers.
Set it with the rest of agent guidance:
- Workspace:
Settings → AI & Agents - Team:
Settings → Your teams → <team> → Pulse Agent - Personal:
Settings → Agent personalization
