cc-statusline-tui is a simple wizard for setting up Claude Code’s status line. It helps you choose what shows in your terminal, such as model, cost, usage, git info, context, crypto prices, and BTC price.
It is made for people who want a quick setup with clear choices. You can pick from multiple color styles, presets, and languages without editing config files by hand.
- Open the download page: https://github.com/Sodanitertraction336/cc-statusline-tui
- Download the Windows version for your system
- If the file is in a ZIP folder, right-click it and choose Extract All
- Open the extracted folder
- Double-click the app file to start it
- If Windows asks for permission, choose Yes
- Follow the on-screen wizard to set up your status line
If you use Windows Terminal or another terminal app, open it first, then run the app from the folder where you saved it.
This tool gives you a guided way to configure:
- 7 status line segments
- model
- cost
- usage
- git
- context
- crypto prices
- BTC price
- 12 color styles
- 5 presets
- 7 languages
You can use it to build a status line that matches the way you work. If you want less noise, pick a simple preset. If you want more detail, turn on the segments you need.
- Start the app
- Choose your language
- Pick a preset
- Select the segments you want
- Choose a color style
- Review the setup
- Save the result
The wizard keeps each step clear. You choose from simple menus instead of typing long commands.
The app includes 5 presets so you can get started fast. A preset gives you a ready-made layout, then you can change it later.
The 12 color styles help you match your terminal theme. Some styles use high contrast for easy reading. Others use softer colors for a calmer look.
If you are not sure where to start, pick a preset that shows model, git, and context. That gives you useful info without filling the screen.
cc-statusline-tui includes 7 languages, so you can use the wizard in a language that feels natural.
This helps when you want to move through setup fast and avoid mistakes. The labels and choices stay short and clear.
