prime-status

A small Prime Agent package that adds the current working directory and session name to the status display.

In the interactive TUI, the extension renders a compact, themed card below the editor with a widget. In RPC sessions, it sends the same card as pre-rendered widget lines because component factories are not supported there. It refreshes when the session starts, when turns or prompts change, and when the session name is renamed or cleared.

Install

From a local tarball:

npm pack
prime-agent package install npm:prime-status@file:/absolute/path/prime-status-0.1.4.tgz

Use --local with prime-agent package install to install it only for the current project. Restart Prime Agent, or run /reload, after installing.

Display

╭─ cwd ───────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│  /workspaces/prime-board  •   session: Release review │
│  worktree: prime-board                                 │
╰─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯

The TUI card has a themed border, a cwd title, and responsive rows for the path, session, and Git worktree name. Long values are truncated to the available width. It follows the agents view palette: the border and title use border and accent, the cwd uses mdLink, a named session uses customMessageLabel, and a detected worktree uses success. Labels stay muted; unnamed sessions and missing worktrees use warning and dim. The card uses the terminal width when the host provides it and keeps an 80-column fallback in RPC sessions. In a local TUI, it uses a belowEditor widget and leaves the built-in footer intact. RPC clients receive the same card as pre-rendered belowEditor widget lines. Print and JSON modes do not display extension UI. The visual symbols use Nerd Font glyphs (, ) and the Powerline-thin separator (). With FiraCode Nerd Font Mono, these glyphs are included in the terminal font; Powerline is not a separate font. If the session has no name, the extension displays (unnamed).
