install-statusline

install-statusline is a skill for Claude Code from jcwleo/oh-no-harness. It costs 45 tokens per session (3,322 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A user-started setup action that installs a Claude Code statusline showing project, git, model, reasoning, context, and rate-limit information. It also installs a matching statusline for running helper subagents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add the developer and subagent statuslines to the user's Claude Code configuration.
Why use it?
It keeps useful session and subagent details visible in the coding environment without requiring separate checks.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: disable-model-invocation in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions subagents; names the AskUserQuestion tool.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

install-statusline 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 11d 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.

Install Statusline

Install Statusline is a user-invoked setup action. It installs a developer-focused Claude Code statusline (working directory, git branch/status, model and reasoning effort, context-window gauge, and rate-limit gauges) into the user's ~/.claude configuration so a freshly set up Claude Code environment gets the same statusline. In the same pass it also installs a matching subagent statusline (subagentStatusLine) that renders each running subagent's row with its status, resolved model and reasoning effort, context-usage gauge, elapsed time, and description — using the same visual language as the main statusline.

This skill is human-invoke-only. It is never auto-invoked by the model: its frontmatter sets disable-model-invocation: true, and it is intentionally left out of the SessionStart routing map. Only an explicit /oh-no-harness:install-statusline from the user runs it.

It is Claude Code-only: it configures Claude Code's statusLine setting and ships no Codex variant.

Software Development Stage

Install Statusline is a one-time environment-setup action, not a software development stage. It should not gather requirements, plan, edit project code, debug failures, clean code, or verify completion. It does not invoke workflow skills.

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.
