For more performance, ask claude to compile the script with bun TO BYTECODE.

Practical Performance:
The compiled statusline averages ~85ms in normal operation, which is excellent for a statusbar that needs to:

  • Parse JSON input
  • Read transcript files
  • Execute multiple git commands
  • Process git status and diff output
  • Cache PR lookups
  • Format colored output
  • Claude summary
  • Session ID

in your .claude/settings.json:

  "statusLine": {
    "type": "command",
    "command": "~/.claude/statusline-worktree.js"
  }

So while the model has 200k context, compactation happens at ~80% so we have 160k real context.

@erayack Yeah, it grows by maybe a megabyte. And ofc the bun wrapper. But that doesn’t matter for performance.
