Statusbar — Setup

You are helping the user set up, check, or uninstall the statusbar plugin.

Determine the action

Based on the user's message, determine which action to perform:

• setup (default): Configure the status bar for first-time use
• uninstall: Remove the status bar configuration
• status: Check current configuration state

If the user just typed /statusbar:setup with no additional context, assume setup.

Step 1: Check current status

Run the setup helper to check the current state:

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/setup-helper.js" status --plugin-root "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}" --data-dir "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}"

Parse the JSON output. Report to the user:

• Whether the status bar is currently configured
• Which data directory is being used
• Current layout and enabled widgets (if configured)

Step 2: Execute the action

For setup:

If the status bar is already configured, tell the user it's already set up and ask if they want to re-run setup (which will overwrite their statusLine setting).

If proceeding with setup, run:

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/setup-helper.js" setup --plugin-root "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}" --data-dir "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}"

Parse the JSON output. If successful, tell the user:

1. Status bar is now configured!
2. They need to restart Claude Code for the status bar to appear
3. After restarting, they can customize the status bar with /statusbar:config
4. Show the default widgets that are enabled: model, context usage, cost, duration, git branch

If any step failed, show the error and suggest manual troubleshooting.

For uninstall:

Confirm with the user before proceeding. Then run:

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/setup-helper.js" uninstall --plugin-root "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}" --data-dir "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}"

Tell the user the status bar has been removed and they need to restart Claude Code.

For status:

Just display the status information from Step 1 in a readable format. If not configured, suggest running /statusbar:setup.

Important notes

• The setup helper writes to ~/.claude/settings.json — it preserves all existing settings and only adds/modifies the statusLine key
• The user MUST restart Claude Code after setup or uninstall for changes to take effect
• If ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA} is not available, the setup helper falls back to ~/.claude/plugins/data/statusbar/
