Show HN: Live Claude Usage HUD for a $38 Thermalright Trofeo Vision LCD

github.com

I just had claude write me a statusline:

Shows the 5h and weekly usage %, when it resets, current model, estimated spend in the session, context used, cwd and project.

Save it in .claude/ and then add a snippet to settings.json:

  "statusLine": {
      "type": "command",
      "command": "bash $HOME/.claude/statusline-command.sh"
    }

It's so sad that this is necessary. Why can't Anthropic get the UX of metering right?

What is tough about /usage or settings usage?

It's on a different page. Just show me a progress bar of 1 or 2 pixels wide in or around the prompt input box.

You can definitely do this by customizing the Claude status bar (in Claude-Glas). Just call `/status-bar` with the stuff you want to displayed.

Mine Shows: Model, effort, output mode, context window percentage, 5h window with reset, weekly window with reset, ...

I'm talking about the web interface.
