Dhsm Statusline

dhsm-statusline

A three-line Claude Code status bar with cost estimate, macOS memory, context-window progress, optional 5h/7d rate-limit usage, and git info.

Model: Sonnet 4.6 [high] | Cost: $0.42 | Context: [████░░░░░░] 78k/200k (39%)
Session: 22.4% | Reset: 3hr 12m | Weekly: 41.0% | Weekly Reset: 4d 8hr
Mem: 24.9G/32.0G | ⎇ feature/billing (tilt-api) | (+312,-87) | 🏠 main

Line 2 only renders when Claude Code provides rate-limit data. Line 3 only renders inside a git repo.

Requirements

• macOS (the memory and vm_stat bits are macOS-specific)
• jq — install with brew install jq
• awk and git — ship with macOS

Install

/plugin marketplace add diogohsm/dhsm-statusline
/plugin install dhsm-statusline@dhsm-statusline
/reload-plugins
/dhsm-statusline:install-statusline

/reload-plugins makes the plugin's slash commands available in the current session — without it, /dhsm-statusline:install-statusline won't be registered yet.

The install command asks Claude to edit your ~/.claude/settings.json and add the statusLine block. You'll see the diff and approve it like any other Edit.

Then restart Claude Code so it picks up the new status line.

Update

/plugin update dhsm-statusline
/reload-plugins
/dhsm-statusline:update-statusline

Then restart Claude Code. The update command re-detects the binary path and refreshes settings.json — necessary because Claude Code bakes in an absolute path that may change between plugin versions.

Uninstall

/dhsm-statusline:uninstall-statusline
/plugin uninstall dhsm-statusline@dhsm-statusline

The first command removes the statusLine block from your settings.json. The second removes the plugin itself.

Customization

All knobs are environment variables. Set them in your shell profile (~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc) — they survive plugin updates.

Variable	Default	What it does
STATUSLINE_INPUT_PRICE	3	USD per 1M input tokens
STATUSLINE_OUTPUT_PRICE	15	USD per 1M output tokens
STATUSLINE_CACHE_READ_PRICE	0.30	USD per 1M cache-read tokens
STATUSLINE_CACHE_WRITE_PRICE	3.75	USD per 1M cache-write tokens
STATUSLINE_CTX_YELLOW_TOKENS	120000	Context-bar turns yellow above this
STATUSLINE_SHOW_MEMORY	1	0 to hide the macOS memory segment
STATUSLINE_SHOW_GIT	1	0 to hide the git line

Defaults reflect Claude Sonnet 4.5/4.6 pricing. Change them if you're on Opus or Haiku.

Manual install (no slash command)

If you'd rather wire it up yourself, add this to your settings.json — but note that Claude Code does not expand ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} inside statusLine.command, so you must write the resolved absolute path:

"statusLine": {
  "type": "command",
  "command": "/Users/<you>/.claude/plugins/.../dhsm-statusline/bin/dhsm-statusline"
}

Find the resolved path with ls ~/.claude/plugins/cache/*/dhsm-statusline*/bin/dhsm-statusline (or wherever your Claude Code installs plugins — check ~/.claude/plugins/ or $CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR/plugins/). The slash command does this lookup for you, which is why it's the recommended path.

Because the path is baked in, if you uninstall and reinstall the plugin, re-run /dhsm-statusline:install-statusline to refresh the absolute path.
