prism-hud is a Claude Code statusline plugin that renders a gradient HUD for context and usage bars so developers can see session pressure at a glance.

About

prism-hud is a Claude Code statusline plugin that visualizes context fill, 5-hour usage, 7-day usage, and related session signals with per-dot gradient bars from cool blue to warm red. Install it when you want at-a-glance awareness of how close a session is to limits without opening settings or parsing warnings. It forks jarrodwatts/claude-hud, adds gradient rendering, and configures through /prism-hud:setup after marketplace install.

  • Per-position gradient progress bars for Context and Usage
  • Fork of claude-hud with prism-hud namespace and config path
  • Slash commands /prism-hud:setup and /prism-hud:configure
  • Customizable 10-step palette, dot chars, and layout options
