Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

claude-mini-hud CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

97% identical to claude-mini-hud AGENTS.md — 4 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Project Overview

claude-mini-hud is a minimal, zero-dependency Claude Code StatusLine plugin. It reads JSON from stdin (per the StatusLine contract) and outputs ANSI-colored status lines (context usage, token breakdown, current todo, optional model name). Multi-module architecture under src/.

Commands

npm install          # Install dev dependencies
npm run build        # Compile TypeScript to dist/
npm run dev          # Watch mode compilation
npm run typecheck    # Type-check tests (tsconfig.test.json, no emit)
npm test             # Full suite: build + typecheck + 57 tests

No linter is configured. Tests use Node.js built-in node:test + node:assert/strict, run via tsx.

Architecture

Multi-module designsrc/ contains:

  1. index.ts — Entry point, stdin reader, main() orchestrator
  2. types.ts — Shared type definitions (StdinData, TodoItem, etc.)
  3. i18n.tsSTRINGS object with zh/en/minimal/ultra-minimal keys, selected by CLAUDE_MINI_HUD_LANG
  4. colors.ts — ANSI color helpers (zero-dependency)
  5. themes.ts — Progress bar theme system (ThemeConfig), selected by CLAUDE_MINI_HUD_THEME
  6. render.ts — All render functions (context, token, model, todo, usage)
  7. transcript.ts — Transcript JSONL parser
  8. usage.ts — Multi-platform usage/quota query (13 providers)

Plugin integration via .claude-plugin/plugin.json (registers the setup command) and commands/setup.md (interactive setup skill).

Two tsconfig filestsconfig.json compiles only src/dist/; tsconfig.test.json adds tests/ with noEmit: true.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
