See your PeopleSoft environment clearly.
Watch the Overview
PeopleSoft administrators, security admins, and developers spend hours every week in App Designer and SQL clients answering routine questions: who has access to this page, which batch jobs failed overnight, why is Integration Broker stalled, and what changed between DEV and PROD?
psLens answers those questions in a browser, in seconds, from one screen.
The psLens Dashboard
One screen to see the health of every connected PeopleSoft environment. Alerts surface problems as they happen.
Make PeopleSoft Readable by ChatGPT and Claude
PeopleCode lives inside App Designer and configuration lives in PeopleTools tables. ChatGPT and Claude can't read either one.
Every PeopleSoft object psLens browses — records, pages, components, projects, application packages, app engines, queries, service operations, permission lists, users, and more — exports as structured Markdown with one click. Paste it into ChatGPT or Claude, drop it into a file Claude Code or Cursor can read, or hand it to whatever AI tool your team already uses.
Code Review in Minutes
Hand an entire project's PeopleCode to an LLM and get bugs, performance issues, and security risks flagged before your next release.
Export a Project to Markdown, Get a Spec from Claude
Generate technical specs, data dictionaries, and onboarding guides from your real configuration rather than stale wikis nobody trusts.
Impact Analysis Before You Change
"What breaks if I touch this record?" Ask an AI before you ship the change, not after the helpdesk lights up.
Onboarding Material for Legacy Customizations
Export PSPROJECTITEM for a long-lived customization, hand it to an LLM, and get a plain-language explanation new team members can read.
Coming on the roadmap: a psLens MCP server, so Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other MCP-aware tools can query PeopleSoft objects live without an export step. The design is already spec'd — read the planned tool catalog.
How psLens Exports PeopleSoft for AI ToolsReal-Time Alerts
16 background checks run every few minutes and surface problems as they happen: long-running processes, failures, stalled IB messages, locked operator accounts blocking scheduled jobs, and anomalous traffic spikes.
Security & Audit Reports
14 on-demand reports analyze your PeopleSoft configuration against security best practices: overly broad permissions, missing node passwords, stale passwords, and IB security gaps. Results are stored for 90 days. See real exported output.
PeopleSoft Object Search
Search and explore every type of PeopleSoft object: fields, records, pages, components, menus, permission lists, roles, SQL objects, application packages, and more.
Process Scheduler
View running, queued, and recently completed process requests. Drill into individual instances to see run details, logs, and status history.
Integration Broker
Monitor async operations, publication contracts, and subscription contracts. 6 dedicated IB alerts detect errors, stalls, and abnormal volume spikes automatically. 7 IB reports audit node security, routing gaps, and sync logging gaps.
Developer Tools
Look up SQL objects, Application Engines, Application Packages, Message Catalog entries, HTML definitions, and more through a fast search interface.
How It Works
1. Install SWS Framework
Install and configure the lightweight SWS framework in your PeopleSoft environment. It provides a secure REST API layer for psLens to query.
2. Deploy psLens
Deploy your dedicated psLens instance and point it at your PeopleSoft environments. Each client gets their own isolated deployment.
3. Search, Monitor, Audit
Open psLens in a browser. The dashboard populates within minutes of the first health check. Search objects, monitor processes, and run security reports from one interface.

Who Is psLens For?
Security Administrators
Audit permission lists, roles, and users without writing SQL. Automated reports flag overly-broad access, stale passwords, and IB security gaps for your next audit.
System Administrators
Know within minutes when processes fail, stall, or won't start because an operator account is locked. Monitor Process Scheduler and Integration Broker with 16 near-real-time alerts.
Developers
Look up any PeopleSoft object in seconds (records, fields, pages, components, SQL objects, application packages) without opening App Designer. Compare projects across DEV, TEST, and PROD in one report.
Business Analysts
Understand PeopleSoft structure and configuration without needing developer tools or database access. Research components, pages, and security setup independently.
DevOps & Support
Monitor Integration Broker and Process Scheduler health from a single screen. Deep-link to specific objects when troubleshooting issues.
Documentation & AI Workflows
Export PeopleSoft object definitions to Markdown for documentation, test planning, and AI-assisted analysis. Share structured exports with anyone.
Read-Only. No Shared Tenancy. Whitelisted Query Surface.
Read-only by design — users never connect directly to the database, and your database passwords stay in PeopleSoft. Queries are scoped to a whitelist of PeopleTools metadata tables. Every customer gets a dedicated deployment with no shared tenancy.
How psLens Protects Your Environment
Who Builds psLens
psLens is built by Chris Malek of Cedar Hills Group, the developer behind the SWS framework that psLens runs on.
Chris has worked in PeopleSoft for 25+ years — first at PeopleSoft itself, then as an independent integration consultant. His integration code runs in production at Stanford, Duke, CUNY, Stony Brook, UC Santa Cruz, and dozens of other universities. He wrote PeopleTools Integration Broker: The Missing Manual, an open-source book used as a reference across the PeopleSoft community.
When you book a demo, Chris is the one on the call.
Design Partner Program
psLens is early-stage, and we are onboarding a limited number of PeopleSoft teams as design partners. Design partners shape what gets built next.
Your requests set the build order
Need a report we don't have, an alert we don't fire, or a security check you want automated? Partner requests go to the front of the queue.
Dedicated setup and onboarding
We walk your team through the SWS install and your psLens deployment, then help onboard additional environments at your pace.
A direct line to the builder
No support tiers. Questions, feedback, and requests go straight to the person who writes the code.
It starts with a demo: a 1-on-1 walkthrough of the dashboard and security reports connected to a live environment.
