Tools I Actually Keep The bar across every terminal I own

coralline puts git state, model, context window and rate-limit gauges into the Claude Code statusline - all segments on, tokyo-night, two lines.

For a couple of months now every terminal I own wears the same bar: coralline, a Powerlevel10k-inspired statusline for Claude Code. All segments on, tokyo-night, two lines. Branch and dirty state, the active model plus its effort level, the context window filling up, the 5h and 7d rate-limit gauges with their reset countdowns, session cost, session length. I have stopped guessing how close I am to a wall.

Run the installer yourself, or hand the playbook to Claude Code and let it interview you. The readme’s own trust section says a Claude that stops to inspect that playbook first is behaving correctly. It is. Read the script, then run it – trust is good, verification is better.

Needs jq and a Nerd Font, or VL_ASCII=1 without the font. Renders locally: no network calls, no tokens.
