Manage `cs` (claude-statusbar) — switch theme/style/density, override severity colors, preview combinations, run doctor, reset config, install, upgrade (`cs upgrade` — the only supported upgrade path), or remove the bar, toggle fast/daemon mode, show cost or prompt-cache age, or toggle the AgentParty/Codex bridge line.

Tokens, turns and time describe resource use, not a dollar price.
One of 6 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
The third status line showing task list progress (`▸ task 3/7`) is cluttering my workspace view. What command disables showing todo progress?

The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Use this skill any time the user wants to inspect, change, customize, or
diagnose the cs status bar. Replaces the older individual slash commands
(/statusbar, /statusbar-theme, /statusbar-style, /statusbar-preview,
/statusbar-doctor, /statusbar-reset) — they still work but this skill
covers all of them with conversational intent.
Match the user's intent to the right cs command. Run it via Bash, then
give a short confirmation (one line, no lecture).
| User intent | Command |
|---|---|
| Inspect current config | cs config show |
| List themes | cs themes |
| List styles | cs styles |
Switch theme to <name> | cs config set theme <name> |
Switch style to <name> | cs config set style <name> |
| Change density | cs config set density <compact|regular|cozy> |
| Show all 27 combinations | cs preview |
| Filter preview to one style/theme | cs preview --style <s> or cs preview --theme <t> |
| Diagnose problem | cs doctor |
| Return one key to its default | cs config unset <key> (the config stores only what you changed) |
| Wipe config | cs config reset |
| Install / first-time setup | cs --setup |
| Upgrade / update to latest version | cs upgrade — NEVER guess uv tool install / pip install -U / pipx upgrade: it detects the install channel that is actually running cs and picks the right one (many users don't have uv at all) |
| Turn auto-upgrade off | cs config set auto_upgrade false (default true — a detached once-a-day check upgrades every install channel, binaries included; CLAUDE_STATUSBAR_NO_UPDATE=1 also wins) |
| Enable fast mode (daemon) | cs --setup --fast |
| Disable fast mode | cs daemon stop then re-run cs --setup |
| Toggle session cost display | cs config set show_cost true|false |
| Toggle prompt-cache countdown | cs config set show_cache_age true|false |
| Toggle project + branch 2nd line | cs config set show_project_branch true|false (default true) |
| Toggle AgentParty/Codex bridge line | cs config set show_party true|false (default true) |
Toggle todo progress (▸ task 3/7, 3rd line) | cs config set show_todos true|false (default true) |
Toggle active-tool indicator ◐ (3rd line) | cs config set show_tools true|false |
Toggle completed-tool rollup ✓ name×N (3rd line) | cs config set show_tool_rollup true|false (default off — volume tally) |
| Toggle running-subagent bottom line(s) | cs config set show_agents true|false (default off — Claude Code shows background agents natively) |
Toggle session duration ⏱ (on identity line) | cs config set show_duration true|false |
