claude-statusline

Claude-statusline is a real-time context usage monitor designed for Claude Code CLI that tracks token consumption across multiple AI providers including Claude, OpenAI, Google Gemini, and xAI Grok. It provides intelligent token counting by integrating directly with Claude Code's internal token data and includes fallback tiktoken-based estimation. The tool automatically detects model types and sets appropriate context limits, displaying information in verbose, compact, or custom formats with provider-aware color coding. Developers using Claude Code can monitor their session context in real-time, preview recent messages, and track remaining tokens without external dependencies.

Clone the repository to ~/.claude/claude-statusline, install Node.js and jq dependencies, then set up the enhanced token counter script. Configure Claude Code's settings.json to use the statusline.sh script and choose your preferred display mode (verbose, compact, or custom format) via command-line flags or environment variables.
