Purpose
This skill enhances the Claude Code CLI by adding a custom statusline that displays session metrics like Git state, context usage, model information, and accumulated costs.

Security Assessment
The tool operates by executing local shell commands to gather Git state and system data, which is standard for this type of utility. It does not request dangerous permissions, contains no hardcoded secrets, and does not appear to exfiltrate data over the network. However, the overall risk is rated as Medium due to its installation methods. The quick-install instructions pipe a remote script directly into bash (`curl ... | bash`). Furthermore, the automated rule scan flagged a `FAIL` for a recursive force deletion command (`rm -rf`) inside the `install.sh` script. Users should manually review the installer script before executing it to ensure the deletion commands target only the intended directories.

Quality Assessment
The project is actively maintained, with its most recent push occurring today. It is properly licensed under the permissive MIT license. Community trust is currently low but growing, as the repository has 27 GitHub stars. The documentation is clear, thorough, and offers secure manual installation alternatives for users in restricted or corporate environments.

Verdict
Use with caution: while the core utility itself is safe and well-documented, users should read through the `install.sh` script before running it to verify the flagged `rm -rf` command.
SUMMARY

Supercharge your Claude Code CLI experience with a powerful statusline that displays key session metrics (Git state, context usage, model info and cost) at a glance — minimal setup, maximum insight.

💡 What You Get

More context in Claude Code's statusline: directory, git status, file changes, model, context usage with progress bar, and cost — all visible at once.

Claude Code Statusline Demo

Install with one command. Works immediately. Configure when you need it.

✨ Quick Install

macOS / Linux / WSL

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/glauberlima/claude-code-statusline/main/install.sh | bash

Windows — PowerShell

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/glauberlima/claude-code-statusline/main/install.ps1 | iex

Windows — CMD

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/glauberlima/claude-code-statusline/main/install.cmd -o install.cmd && install.cmd && del install.cmd

Windows requires Git for Windows. Install it first if you don't have it.

Manual Installation

Use this if you can't run the one-liner (corporate proxy, air-gapped environment, restricted shell).

macOS / Linux / WSL

1. Get the files

git clone https://github.com/glauberlima/claude-code-statusline.git
cd claude-code-statusline

2. Patch for language and features (optional — skip for English with messages/cost off)

# English with messages enabled
./patch-statusline.sh statusline.sh messages/en.json

# Portuguese, no cost display
./patch-statusline.sh statusline.sh messages/pt.json --no-cost

# Disable messages entirely
./patch-statusline.sh statusline.sh --no-messages

3. Copy to ~/.claude/

mkdir -p ~/.claude
cp statusline.sh ~/.claude/statusline.sh
chmod +x ~/.claude/statusline.sh

4. Add to ~/.claude/settings.json

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

1. Download the files (run in PowerShell)

$base = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/glauberlima/claude-code-statusline/main"
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force statusline | Out-Null
Set-Location statusline
Invoke-WebRequest "$base/statusline.sh" -OutFile statusline.sh
Invoke-WebRequest "$base/patch-statusline.sh" -OutFile patch-statusline.sh
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force messages | Out-Null
foreach ($lang in "en","pt","es") {
  Invoke-WebRequest "$base/messages/$lang.json" -OutFile "messages/$lang.json"
}

2. Patch via Git Bash (optional — skip for English with messages/cost off)

# Run these in Git Bash, not PowerShell
./patch-statusline.sh statusline.sh messages/en.json

3. Copy to %USERPROFILE%\.claude\ (run in PowerShell)

New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude" | Out-Null
Copy-Item statusline.sh "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\statusline.sh"

4. Add to %USERPROFILE%\.claude\settings.json

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