claude-statusline

My Claude Code status line — shared across machines via symlinks.

Renders the current directory, model, git branch, context usage, session cost, weekly burn, 5-hour block timer, and active session count.

Install

git clone git@github.com:sirkitree/claude-statusline.git ~/repos/claude-statusline
cd ~/repos/claude-statusline
./install.sh

The installer symlinks statusline.sh and statusline-config.json into ~/.claude/, backing up any existing files to ~/.claude/<name>.backup-<timestamp>.

Then make sure ~/.claude/settings.json points at the script:

{
  "statusLine": {
    "type": "command",
    "command": "~/.claude/statusline.sh"
  }
}

Update

cd ~/repos/claude-statusline && git pull

Symlinks pick up changes automatically — no reinstall needed.

Configure

Edit statusline-config.json (or the symlinked copy at ~/.claude/statusline-config.json — same file). Common knobs:

• user.plan — pro, max5x, or max20x
• limits.weekly.<plan> — weekly cost cap in USD
• limits.context — context window threshold (in thousands)
• limits.cost — per-5-hour-block cost limit
• sections.* — toggle individual statusline sections on/off
• colors.* — ANSI color codes for each element

Requirements

• bash, jq, awk
• npx (used to invoke ccusage for block/cost data)
