despicable-statusline

You can display orchestration status in the Claude Code status line by configuring your settings to append a nefario status snippet, which reads the current phase and updates the bar dynamically.

To preserve your existing status line while adding nefario status, the configuration process reads your current settings, creates a safety backup, and appends the nefario snippet idempotently to prevent duplicating entries.

Yes, you need the jq command-line tool installed, because it is required for the JSON manipulation used to safely modify your ~/.claude/settings.json file during the status line configuration.

The configuration modifies the user's ~/.claude/settings.json file to inject the nefario status snippet, ensuring a safety backup is created before applying any changes to preserve existing configurations.

No, running the configuration multiple times will not create duplicate entries because the process is idempotent, ensuring the nefario status snippet is updated only if necessary and without duplicating existing status line commands.

Yes, you can see specific nefario orchestration phases like Planning, Execution, or Review directly in your status bar, providing real-time feedback for monitoring long-running tasks without switching contexts.
