Readme
sub-status
Compact status-line client for pi-coding-agent.
sub-status is a small passive companion to sub-core: it renders current quota usage via ctx.ui.setStatus(...), without widget UI, commands, or settings UI in v1.
On startup it follows the same bootstrap pattern as sub-bar, requests the current sub-core state, and then listens for sub-core:ready / sub-core:update-current to keep the compact line up to date. It stays deliberately quiet: no placeholder text when state is unavailable, and the status clears entirely when no usable usage snapshot exists.
Installation
Install via the pi package manager:
pi install npm:@marckrenn/pi-sub-statusUse -l to install into project settings instead of global:
pi install -l npm:@marckrenn/pi-sub-statussub-status follows the same package metadata/bootstrap pattern as sub-bar: it depends on sub-core, declares the same extra extension paths in package metadata, and probes/auto-loads sub-core at runtime for resilience.
Relationship to the other packages
sub-coreis the shared source of truth for provider detection, fetching, cache/state, and events.sub-baris the rich widget UI and remains the default visual package.sub-statusis an optional compact client for status-line-friendly and RPC-friendly hosts.
Installing sub-status alongside sub-bar is expected to be supported: sub-bar owns the rich widget, while sub-status owns a compact status line.
