I recommend people just update their Claude Code status line so that changes like this are in Claude Code itself.

My status line shows 5h and 7d quota usage among other things like model, context usage, git branch, etc. Unfortunately the whole status line disappears half of the time from CC’s broken ass UI.

Personally I have multiple instances of Claude on my PC dedicated to different areas (split between my private subscription and my work one) and it is useful to see both at a glance. And I don't have to keep the terminal open to see how much time is left for quota to be reset. But for single-Claude users this is indeed a valid solution!

I also use multiple. Your statusline is per Claude session so it can show separate quotas/file info/context use/etc.

It’s just a script you write to modify the last line of the Claude Code program.
