Enhances the Claude Code TUI with real-time session monitoring, usage tracking, and customizable status bars.
The statusline-customization skill provides a comprehensive reference for configuring the visual status bar within Claude Code environments. It enables developers to monitor critical session metrics including token context usage, cumulative API costs, session duration, and active git branch status directly in the terminal. By utilizing non-blocking background API calls and a flexible JSON configuration, users can tailor their interface with various themes and precise bar widths to maintain high situational awareness during AI-assisted development.
