Configure Claude Code statusline

Statusline Setup

Configure the Claude Code statusline to display session context, cost, and account-wide usage.

Step 1: Check Current Status

Read ~/.claude/settings.json and .claude/settings.local.json to check if statusLine is configured.

Report:

• "Statusline configured in user settings: [command]" if found in ~/.claude/settings.json
• "Statusline configured in project settings: [command]" if found in .claude/settings.local.json
• "Statusline is not configured" if neither exists

Step 2: Show Options

Tell the user:

Statusline Options:

1. Native (recommended for Claude subscription/API)
   - Shows: [Session] context% $cost | [5H] usage% time-until-reset
   - Account-wide 5H usage tracking with time until reset
   - Color-coded: green <50%, yellow 50-80%, red >80%
   - Requires: Claude subscription (Max/Pro) or Claude API key
   - Does NOT work with: z.ai, third-party endpoints

2. ccusage (for external endpoints)
   - Shows: context%, session/daily cost
   - Works with: Anthropic, z.ai, third-party endpoints
   - Limitation: No account-wide 5H block usage info

3. Disable - Remove statusline

Step 3: Ask for Choice

Use AskUserQuestion:

• question: "Which statusline do you want?"
• header: "Statusline"
• options:
  • label: "Native (Claude subscription/API)" description: "Session + account-wide 5H usage with reset time"
  • label: "ccusage (external endpoints)" description: "Works with z.ai - no 5H block info"
  • label: "Disable" description: "Remove statusline"

Step 4: If Native Selected

Ask where to install

Use AskUserQuestion:

• question: "Where should the statusline be configured?"
• header: "Location"
• options:
  • label: "User settings (global)" description: "~/.claude/settings.json - applies to all projects"
  • label: "Project local" description: ".claude/settings.local.json - this project only"

Check for existing config

If statusLine already exists in chosen location, use AskUserQuestion:

• question: "Statusline already configured. Replace it?"
• header: "Override"
• options:
  • label: "Yes, replace" description: "Override existing statusline config"
  • label: "No, cancel" description: "Keep current config"

If user chooses "No, cancel", stop and say "Setup cancelled."

Install Native

1. Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/statusline.sh
2. Write to ~/.claude/statusline.sh
3. Run chmod +x ~/.claude/statusline.sh
4. Read current settings file (user or project based on choice)
5. Create backup with .backup suffix
6. Add/update statusLine:

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

7. Write back to settings file

Step 5: If ccusage Selected

Ask where to install

Use AskUserQuestion:

• question: "Where should the statusline be configured?"
• header: "Location"
• options:
  • label: "User settings (global)" description: "~/.claude/settings.json - applies to all projects"
  • label: "Project local" description: ".claude/settings.local.json - this project only"

Check for existing config and confirm override (same as Native)

Install ccusage

1. Read current settings file
2. Create backup with .backup suffix
3. Add/update statusLine:

"statusLine": {
  "type": "command",
  "command": "npx -y ccusage@latest statusline --cost-source cc",
  "padding": 0
}

4. Write back to settings file

Step 6: If Disable Selected

1. Read ~/.claude/settings.json
2. Create backup
3. Remove statusLine key if exists
4. Write back

Also check .claude/settings.local.json and remove statusLine if present.

Step 7: Confirm Success

Tell the user:

Statusline configured successfully!

IMPORTANT: Restart Claude Code for changes to take effect.
- Exit Claude Code (Ctrl+C or /exit)
- Run `claude` again
