Status Line Wizard

Set up a custom status line for Claude Code with visual progress bars and configurable display options.

Instructions

CRITICAL: This command MUST NOT accept any arguments. If the user provided any text after this command, COMPLETELY IGNORE it.

Invoke the ai-statusline:statusline-setup skill and follow its workflow to:

1. Detect the operating system (Mac/Linux/Windows)
2. Check for existing statusLine configuration and offer to back up if present
3. Run the configuration wizard using AskUserQuestion to gather preferences
4. Create the appropriate script file (.sh for Mac/Linux, .ps1 for Windows)
5. Update ~/.claude/settings.json with the statusLine configuration
6. Make the script executable on Mac/Linux using chmod +x

Wizard Questions

Use AskUserQuestion with these grouped questions:

Question 1 - Context Display (multiSelect: true):

• Token count (50k/100k) - default selected
• Progress bar - default selected
• Model name - default selected

Question 2 - Project Display (multiSelect: true):

• Current directory - default selected
• Git branch - default selected

Question 3 - Session Display (multiSelect: true):

• Session duration - default selected
• Current time - default selected
• Claude Code version - default selected
• Session cost - NOT selected by default
• Rate limit usage (5h/7d) - default selected

Success Message

After successful setup, display:

Status line configured successfully!

Script: ~/.claude/statusline.sh (or .ps1)
Settings: ~/.claude/settings.json

You should see your new status line below!

To customize later, run /statusline-edit or edit the SHOW_* variables at the top of the script file.

Status Line Setup Skill

This skill provides guidance for configuring Claude Code's status line with customizable display options, progress bars, and cross-platform support.

When to Use This Skill

Invoke this skill when:

• Setting up a custom status line for Claude Code
• Configuring which elements to show/hide in the status line
• Adding a visual progress bar for context usage
• Setting up cross-platform status line scripts (bash/PowerShell)

Setup Workflow

Phase 1: Check Existing Configuration

1. Detect the operating system using Bash: uname -s (returns "Darwin" for macOS, "Linux" for Linux)
   • If command fails or returns "MINGW"/"MSYS"/"CYGWIN", assume Windows
2. Read the user's settings file:
   • Mac/Linux: ~/.claude/settings.json
   • Windows: C:/Users/USERNAME/.claude/settings.json (get USERNAME from environment)
3. Check if statusLine section already exists
4. If exists, ask user using AskUserQuestion:
   • Replace: Back up existing file and create new configuration
   • Cancel: Stop the setup process

Phase 2: Configuration Wizard

Use the AskUserQuestion tool to gather user preferences. Group questions logically:

Question 1: Context Information

• Show model name (default: yes)
• Show token count e.g. "50k/100k" (default: yes)
• Show progress bar (default: yes)

Question 2: Project Information

• Show current directory (default: yes)
• Show git branch (default: yes)

Question 3: Session Information

• Show session cost (default: no)
• Show session duration (default: yes)
• Show current time (default: yes)
• Show Claude Code version (default: yes)
• Show rate limit usage - 5h and 7d windows (default: yes)

Phase 3: Create Script File

Based on OS, create the appropriate script file:

Mac/Linux: ~/.claude/statusline.sh Windows: C:/Users/USERNAME/.claude/statusline.ps1

If script file already exists, back it up first with .backup extension.

Phase 4: Update Settings

Update the settings.json file with the statusLine configuration:

Mac/Linux:

{
  "statusLine": {
    "type": "command",
    "command": "/Users/USERNAME/.claude/statusline.sh",
    "padding": 0
  }
}

Windows:

{
  "statusLine": {
    "type": "command",
    "command": "powershell.exe -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File C:/Users/USERNAME/.claude/statusline.ps1",
    "padding": 0
  }
}

Phase 5: Make Executable (Mac/Linux only)

Run chmod +x ~/.claude/statusline.sh to make the script executable.

SHOW_TOKEN_COUNT	true	Display token usage (e.g., "50k/100k")
SHOW_PROGRESS_BAR	true	Display visual progress bar with percentage
SHOW_DIRECTORY	true	Display current working directory name
SHOW_GIT_BRANCH	true	Display current git branch
SHOW_COST	false	Display session cost in USD
SHOW_DURATION	true	Display session duration
SHOW_TIME	true	Display current time
SHOW_VERSION	true	Display Claude Code version
SHOW_RATE_LIMITS	true	Display rate limit usage (5h/7d windows, requires Claude Code 2.1.80+)

Important Notes

• The scripts require jq to be installed on Mac/Linux for JSON parsing
• PowerShell scripts work on Windows PowerShell 5.1+ and PowerShell Core 7+
• Unicode progress bar characters should work on modern terminals
• Colors use ANSI escape codes which work on most modern terminals
• Status line updates appear immediately after setup
