System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you install and verify a persistent Claude Code usage status bar so you can monitor rate limits and context usage without guessing, including a countdown to resets.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Install or verify the usage bar: Checks for ~/.claude/statusline-usage.sh and ~/.claude/usage-bar.conf, and guides you to set up Claude Code settings.json when missing.
  • Live display testing: Runs a simulated payload to confirm the bar renders correctly and shows both rate limits and context usage.
  • Language switching: Updates the configuration to switch the bar’s display language (e.g., English to Italian) without requiring a restart for the next response.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to install the Claude Code usage status bar and write the default configuration files on your machine.
