@eilonwy06, could you please try it out and give a feedback?
Also I need your help to build windows & macos versions of the rust library. Possibly it worth reorganizing preferences on a few pages. Maybe you have other ideas or data to add. Also in theory this status bar could be also used on Claude GUI view (or maybe its backend part with another UI component). Also in this PR I decided to commit the feature implementation plan we worked on with Claude, so the feature architecture, decisions made and approaches rejected are more explicit. We could follow this approach if you also think it is useful. |
Rationale: when working with Claude Code it is useful to control context usage, limits and other important parameters. There are CLI plugins that provide such functionality, however having this information in GUI form looks nicer and is more flexible. Implementation details and architectural decisions can be found in doc/claude-status-bar.md.
