  }
}
1Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/jamesprnich/oh-my-line.git ~/.oh-my-line
2Build the binary
cd engine && go build -o ~/.oh-my-line/oh-my-line ./cmd/oh-my-line/
3Configure Claude Code
Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "statusLine": {
    "type": "command",
    "command": "~/.oh-my-line/oh-my-line"
  }
}
4Restart Claude Code
The statusline appears on next launch.
2. That's it — restart Claude Code
The installer sets up a 4-line statusline out of the box — rate limits, ETAs, git info, burn rates, and product identity. No config needed.
Install Nerd Fonts for the best experience — icons throughout your statusline. Enable nerdFont in your config.json or using the Config Builder after installing.

Point your AI at the skill file. That's it.

1. Give your agent the skill
Point your agent at the SKILL.md — it contains everything needed to install, configure, and verify.
Terminal
> curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jamesprnich/oh-my-line/main/skills/oh-my-line/SKILL.md and follow it to set up oh-my-line
2. That's it — restart Claude Code
The agent runs the installer, creates your config, and verifies it works. Same result as the manual install.

Features

⚡

Fast Compiled Engine

Single Go binary — no jq, no Python, no Node. Self-gating segments skip work when not configured.

📈

65 Segments

Rate limits, ETAs, burn rates, cost tracking, GitHub PRs & CI, Docker status, git stats, custom shell commands, and more.

🎨

Visual Config Builder

Drag-and-drop config editor. Tabbed palette, live preview, 13 presets. Copy the JSON, paste into your config.

📄

JSON Config

One oh-my-line.json file controls everything. Global or per-project, your choice.

🇬

Nerd Font Icons

Automatic icons across all segments when a Nerd Font is installed. Works without one too — just text.

☰

Multi-Line Layouts

Up to 20 lines with gradient, neon, fade, and solid backgrounds. Group segments however you like.
