What it does

Claude Statusbar is an agent skill from leeguooooo/claude-code-usage-bar. Manage cs (claude-statusbar) — switch theme/style/density, override severity colors, preview combinations, run doctor, reset config, install, upgrade (cs upgrade — the only supported upgrade path), or remove the bar, toggle fast/daemon mode, show cost or prompt-cache age, or toggle the activity segments (todos, active tool, running subagents, session duration, lines changed, git ahead/behind). Use whenever the user mentions cs, claude-statusbar, status bar, status line, 状态栏, 主题, theme switching, style switching…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Context engineering, Subagents and Rate limiting. It works with Git and Python. The repository describes itself as: Lightweight Claude Code statusLine: 5h/7d rate-limit usage, reset countdowns, model + context window, prompt-cache age — one line, 3 styles × 9 themes, daemon fast-mode. The licence is MIT.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 76b4b39. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- uv
- pip
- pipx
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, pip and pipx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Claude Statusbar loads about 2.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 248 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,144 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~248
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~2.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

claude-statusbar control skill

Use this skill any time the user wants to inspect, change, customize, or diagnose the cs status bar. Replaces the older individual slash commands (/statusbar, /statusbar-theme, /statusbar-style, /statusbar-preview, /statusbar-doctor, /statusbar-reset) — they still work but this skill covers all of them with conversational intent.

Decision tree

Match the user's intent to the right cs command. Run it via Bash, then give a short confirmation (one line, no lecture).

User intent	Command
Inspect current config	`cs config show`
List themes	`cs themes`
List styles	`cs styles`
Switch theme to `<name>`	`cs config set theme <name>`
Switch style to `<name>`	`cs config set style <name>`
Change density	`cs config set density <compact\|regular\|cozy>`
Show all 27 combinations	`cs preview`
Filter preview to one style/theme	`cs preview --style <s>` or `cs preview --theme <t>`
Diagnose problem	`cs doctor`
Return one key to its default	`cs config unset <key>` (the config stores only what you changed)
Wipe config	`cs config reset`
Install / first-time setup	`cs --setup`
Upgrade / update to latest version	`cs upgrade` — NEVER guess `uv tool install` / `pip install -U` / `pipx upgrade`: it detects the install channel that is actually running `cs` and picks the right one (many users don't have uv at all)
Turn auto-upgrade off	`cs config set auto_upgrade false` (default `true` — a detached once-a-day check upgrades every install channel, binaries included; `CLAUDE_STATUSBAR_NO_UPDATE=1` also wins)
Enable fast mode (daemon)	`cs --setup --fast`
Disable fast mode	`cs daemon stop` then re-run `cs --setup`
Toggle session cost display	`cs config set show_cost true\|false`
Toggle prompt-cache countdown	`cs config set show_cache_age true\|false`
Toggle project + branch 2nd line	`cs config set show_project_branch true\|false` (default `true`)
Toggle the ocs line (`ocs boss · claude-7d5a5d07 · ✉3 · lan win`: address, unread DMs, LAN bridge; own line; auto-hidden without ocs ≥ 0.5.0, `✉` needs an ocs whose `inbox` accepts `--session`)	`cs config set show_ocs true\|false` (default `true`)
Toggle todo progress (`▸ task 3/7`, 3rd line)	`cs config set show_todos true\|false` (default `true`)
Toggle active-tool indicator `◐` (3rd line)	`cs config set show_tools true\|false`
Toggle completed-tool rollup `✓ name×N` (3rd line)	`cs config set show_tool_rollup true\|false` (default off — volume tally)
Toggle running-subagent bottom line(s)	`cs config set show_agents true\|false` (default off — Claude Code shows background agents natively)
Toggle session duration `⏱` (on identity line)	`cs config set show_duration true\|false`
Toggle lines added/removed `+/-` (on identity line)	`cs config set show_lines true\|false`
Toggle git ahead/behind `↑↓` (on identity line)	`cs config set show_ahead_behind true\|false`
Toggle the `bar_shimmer` twinkling starfield (experimental, classic only)	`cs config set bar_shimmer true\|false` (default off)
Toggle the rate-limit forecast (→NN% projected use / ⚠eta warning)	`cs config set show_forecast true\|false` (default on)
Toggle the faint version + update hint at the identity-line end (`· vX.Y.Z ↑new`)	`cs config set show_version true\|false` (default on)
Toggle the ⚙ session-mode line (effort/thinking/fast/output-style)	`cs config set show_mode true\|false` (default on)
Toggle the per-effort colour gradient on the mode line	`cs config set mode_gradient true\|false` (default on)
Hide weekly bar	`cs config set show_weekly false`

Auto-collapse to hairline below width	`cs config set auto_compact_width <px>`
Force / disable no-quota (API) mode	`cs config set api_mode <auto\|on\|off>`
Show working directory	`cs config set show_cwd true\|false` + `cs config set cwd_style <basename\|full>`
Relay balance fuel gauge	`cs config set show_balance true\|false` + `cs config set balance_bar true\|false` (no-quota mode only; auto-hidden when the relay has no balance API)

Window-end projection `→NN%`	`cs config set show_projection true\|false`
Worktree marker glyph	`cs config set worktree_glyph 🌲` (default `⑂`; any 1-2 cell symbol — an emoji ignores the theme color, the emoji font decides it)

No-quota mode (third-party relay / Bedrock / Vertex)

When Claude Code points at a third-party relay (ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL ≠ api.anthropic.com) or a cloud backend (CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK / CLAUDE_CODE_USE_VERTEX), the official 5h/7d quota doesn't exist. cs detects this and switches to a no-quota layout: the two quota battery bars are dropped and the context window is promoted to its own ctx[…] battery bar (green→yellow→red on 70/85% used), followed by the model name + the usual live-activity tail. This mirrors claude-hud's behavior and is what to reach for when a user says "用 API 就没状态了 / 连上下文都没了".

Detection is automatic (api_mode = auto, the default). A transcript-based heuristic also catches relays whose env var didn't reach the statusLine subprocess (an assistant turn exists yet quota never arrived → no-quota).
Force it on a setup where auto-detect misses: cs config set api_mode on (or per-shell CS_API_MODE=on). Force the official layout back with api_mode off. CS_API_MODE env wins over the saved config.
Works under both the inline and fast-mode (daemon) render paths.

Per-severity color overrides (v3.4.1+)

The user can override the three severity colors independently of theme:

bash

cs config set color_ok   "#4ec85b"   # calm / safe
cs config set color_warn "#e8b260"   # warning
cs config set color_hot  "#e87474"   # critical

cs config set color_ok ""            # clear back to theme default

Accepts #rrggbb, #rgb, or bare rrggbb. The override layers on top of whatever theme is active — no need to switch theme just to tune one color.

When user says "make 余量颜色 / safe color / green sharper", "warning 偏淡", "critical too red" — go to the override, not the theme.

Vibe → theme suggestion

If the user describes a vibe instead of naming a theme, suggest one and ask before switching:

Vibe / context	Theme
Muted, professional, dark terminal	`graphite` (default)
Soft, warm, dark	`twilight`
Classic dev / Nord-inspired	`nord`
High contrast, vivid	`dracula`
Warm, cute, light bg	`sakura`
Light terminal	`linen`
Pure grayscale / no color	`mono`
Popular pastel, easy on long viewing	`catppuccin-mocha`
Deeper neon-blue mood	`tokyo-night`

Render anatomy (so you can explain what you're changing)

5h[██16% ░░░]⏰2h27m | 7d[██32%  ░░]⏰4d05h | Opus 4.7(280k/1M) | $ 1.42 | cache 4m23s
└─ 5h ─────┘└──5h──┘  └─ 7d ──┘ └─7d─┘   └────context───────┘  └cost┘  └─cache─┘

Every numeric segment colors itself by its own severity (since v3.4):

5h → theme.s_* chosen from msgs_pct
7d → theme.s_* chosen from weekly_pct
model+context → theme.s_* chosen from ctx_used_pct (None → neutral)
cache → its own string-age severity (COLD → red, <1m → yellow, else green)
[ ], ( ), | → theme.mute (recede behind data)

Common diagnostic flows

"Status bar isn't showing" → cs doctor. It self-checks:

Claude Code's ~/.claude/settings.json has the statusLine block
the cs binary is on PATH
whether the daemon is alive (if fast-mode configured)
whether the cache files are stale

"refreshInterval too high" → cs doctor will recommend cs --setup --fast when it sees refreshInterval ≤ 2s on the inline command. Fast mode drops 1Hz CPU from ~6% to ~2%.

"Color won't change after cs config set theme X" → check the user isn't on a Claude Code session that read settings.json at start. Ask them to send a new prompt; the next render picks up the new theme.

Don't

Don't lecture about ANSI codes or terminal compatibility unless asked.
Don't suggest editing ~/.claude/claude-statusbar.json by hand. Use cs config set <key> <value>.
Don't change theme just to fix one color — use color_ok / color_warn / color_hot overrides.
Don't run destructive commands (cs config reset, cs daemon stop) without confirming with the user.

Style of response

Be terse. Run the command, paste the one-line confirmation, point at the next step if relevant. The status bar is on screen — they can see the result immediately, no need to describe it.
