+# Claude Code Dotfiles Plugin
+
+Personal development workflow automation - hooks, tools, and configurations.
+
+## Status Line
+
+A custom status bar showing model name and context usage with a visual progress bar.
+
+Requires: `jq`
+
+### Enable
+
+Add to `~/.claude/settings.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "statusLine": {
+    "type": "command",
+    "command": "~/Code/dotfiles/claude-plugin/statusline/statusline.sh",
+    "padding": 0
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Output
+
+```text
+Opus 4.5 | ctx ■■■■■□□□□□□□□□□▨▨▨▨▨ 33%
+```
+
+The bar shows 15 usable squares plus 5 reserved squares (▨) representing the 22.5% auto-compact buffer. The percentage shown is the **effective usage** against the usable 77.5% of context (e.g., 25% total context = 32% effective).
+
+Colors change based on effective usage:
+
+- Grey: < 75% (~58% total)
+- Orange: 75–93% (~58–72% total)
+- Red: ≥ 94% (~73%+ total)
