Statusline

A compact 2-line metrics bar at the bottom of your terminal. Updated after every assistant response.

Line	Content
Line 1	Model name, git branch + changes, context progress bar, cost, duration
Line 2	Token breakdown (in/out/cache), lines added/removed, session ID
Mission	Current goal + task progress (requires CLAUDE.md snippet)
Recent	One-sentence summary of what the assistant did recently — updated every ~10 prompts. Narrows gracefully; hidden below 50 cols.

The context progress bar shifts color as usage climbs:

• Green — under 70%
