Claude Code status lines that track usage limits
17 of the gallery's 23 status lines watch rate limits or quota. Updated 2026-07-06.
Claude plans meter usage in five-hour and weekly windows, and Claude Code hands both to your status line as rate limit data. These status lines show how much of each window is gone and when it resets.
They differ mostly in urgency: some show a quiet percentage, others switch color or warn outright as you approach the cap.
