name: install-meter

description: Add the terse context meter to the Claude Code status line. Use when the user asks to install, enable or show the context meter or percentage in the status line.

---

Add this entry to the user's `~/.claude/settings.json` (create the key if missing, keep every other key as is):

```json

"statusLine": {

"type": "command",

"command": "node \"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/statusline/context-meter.js\""

}

```

Use the absolute path shown above verbatim. Claude Code reloads the status line on save, no restart needed.

- Then tell the user: the meter shows model name and context fill percentage. Colours: green below 37%, yellow from 37%, orange from 49%, skull from 60%. Thresholds sit low on purpose: retrieval quality degrades long before a large window fills (sources linked in the plugin README, meter section). The thresholds are the three numbers near the top of `context-meter.js`.

The thresholds are below the usual 50, 65 and 80 percent because retrieval quality degrades before a large window fills. Sources are linked in the README, meter section.
