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. In RPC and daemon sessions, it publishes a plain protocol-friendly line through ctx.ui.setStatus() and ctx.ui.setWidget(). 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-0.1.2.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 daemon sessions. In a local TUI, the card uses the custom footer so it is stacked below the built-in agents summary. Daemon-backed TUI clients do not expose custom footers, so they use the same compact card as a pre-rendered belowEditor widget; other headless clients receive the compact line instead. 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).
