Configuration
Settings to apply
| Setting | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
includeCoAuthoredBy | false | Disable co-authored-by line in commits |
statusLine | custom command | Custom status line using ~/.claude/statusline.sh |
Installation
1. Ensure settings directory exists
bash
mkdir -p ~/.claude
2. Install status line script
Copy the status line script from this repository:
bash
cp scripts/status_line.sh ~/.claude/statusline.sh chmod +x ~/.claude/statusline.sh
3. Apply settings
If ~/.claude/settings.json doesn't exist, create it:
bash
echo '{}' > ~/.claude/settings.json
Update the settings using jq:
bash
jq '. + {"includeCoAuthoredBy": false, "statusLine": {"type": "command", "command": "~/.claude/statusline.sh", "padding": 0}}' ~/.claude/settings.json > ~/.claude/settings.json.tmp && mv ~/.claude/settings.json.tmp ~/.claude/settings.json
Verify
bash
cat ~/.claude/settings.json | jq '.includeCoAuthoredBy'
Should output: false
bash
cat ~/.claude/settings.json | jq '.statusLine'
Should output the statusLine configuration object.
bash
ls -la ~/.claude/statusline.sh
Should show the script with execute permissions.
Update
Re-run the installation steps to apply any new settings added to this skill.
Uninstall
Remove the settings or reset to defaults:
bash
jq 'del(.includeCoAuthoredBy, .statusLine)' ~/.claude/settings.json > ~/.claude/settings.json.tmp && mv ~/.claude/settings.json.tmp ~/.claude/settings.json
