Claude Statusline is a minimal status-line configuration for Claude Code that surfaces useful session and workspace information directly in the terminal. It is designed to show usage limits together with the current directory and Git branch information. Installation is handled through an npm command that copies the status-line script into the user’s Claude configuration directory. The installer automatically backs up an existing status line before replacing it. The setup relies on jq for JSON parsing, curl for retrieving rate-limit data, and Git for repository information. An uninstall command removes the configuration and restores the previous status line when a backup exists. The project is intentionally small and focuses on making Claude Code sessions easier to monitor without adding a larger interface.
