Custom statusline for Claude Code that shows real-time rate limit usage percentages with progress bars.

What you see:

• Line 1: Git branch + path + model name
• Line 2: S: Session (cost, tokens, context %) L: 5-hour rate limit % W: Weekly all-models limit %

npm i -g @mingrath/claude-code-statusline

Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "statusLine": {
    "type": "command",
    "command": "bun -e \"import '@mingrath/claude-code-statusline'\"",
    "padding": 0
  }
}

git clone https://github.com/mingrath/claude-code-statusline.git ~/.claude/scripts/statusline
cd ~/.claude/scripts/statusline && bun install
cp statusline.config.example.json statusline.config.json

Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "statusLine": {
    "type": "command",
    "command": "bun ~/.claude/scripts/statusline/src/index.ts",
    "padding": 0
  }
}

• Git branch with dirty indicator and staged/unstaged counts
• Session cost ($) and duration
• Context tokens used with progress bar (% of 200k window)
• 5-hour rate limit utilization % with reset countdown (from Claude API)
• Weekly all-models limit % with reset countdown (from Claude API)
• Configurable progress bar styles (braille, filled, rectangle)
• Progressive color coding (gray < 50%, yellow < 70%, orange < 90%, red 90%+)

The statusline fetches real utilization percentages from Claude's OAuth API using the same authentication as Claude Code itself. The key is the anthropic-beta: oauth-2025-04-20 header.

Data flow:

Claude Code Hook (stdin JSON) --> index.ts

                    +---------------+---------------+

                            |
                        stdout
