Claude HUD is a Claude Code plugin that renders a statusline HUD below your input, showing context window usage, active tool activity, running subagents, and todo progress. It is installed via the Claude Code plugin marketplace and configured with a setup command.

Use cases

  • monitor claude code context window usage
  • see which tools claude is running in real time
  • track subagent activity in claude code
  • view todo task progress during ai coding sessions
  • add a statusline to claude code
  • know when context is about to run out

When to choose

  • you use Claude Code daily and want visibility into context health and agent activity
  • you want a lightweight, always-visible statusline without leaving the terminal
  • you want real-time todo and tool tracking inside Claude Code

When to avoid

  • you don't use Claude Code or Anthropic's CLI tooling
  • you need a general-purpose terminal dashboard unrelated to Claude Code
  • you can't install Node.js on Windows or run an up-to-date Claude Code version
