Source: https://ofox.io/docs/integrations/claude-code/contextline

[CCometixLine](https://github.com/Haleclipse/CCometixLine?utm=ofox_ai) is a Claude Code status bar enhancement tool that displays Git branch status, current model, and context window usage in real time, giving you instant visibility into key information while coding.

**Key Features:**

- **Git Status** — Branch name, clean / dirty / conflict state, remote tracking info
- **Model Display** — Simplified model name (e.g., `Sonnet 5.5` instead of the full identifier)
- **Context Usage** — Real-time token consumption percentage
- **Theme System** — Multiple built-in themes (cometix, minimal, gruvbox, nord, powerline-dark) with custom theme support

## Installation

A [Nerd Font](https://www.nerdfonts.com/?utm=ofox_ai) must be installed in your terminal for icons to display correctly.

### Install via Claude Code (Recommended)

Send the following message in the Claude Code chat, and Claude will automatically complete the installation and configuration:

```text filename="Send to Claude Code"
Install this for me: https://github.com/Haleclipse/CCometixLine
and configure it in Claude Code global settings to enable it
```

Claude Code will automatically:
1. Clone the repository and build/install CCometixLine
2. Write the status bar configuration to `~/.claude/settings.json`
3. Take effect after restart

### Manual Installation

Install globally via npm and configure manually:

```bash
npm install -g ccline
```

Add the following configuration to `~/.claude/settings.json`:

```json filename="~/.claude/settings.json"
{
  "env": {
    "CLAUDE_CODE_STATUSLINE": "ccline"
  }
}
```

Restart Claude Code for changes to take effect.

## Customization
