Pi cost transparency status line showing its pastel sci-fi telemetry dashboard

It replaces Pi's footer with a compact pastel telemetry dashboard that makes token usage and spend fully transparent:

  • current working directory and Git branch
  • active model and thinking level
  • accumulated input/output/cache-read/cache-write tokens
  • cache hit rate with a colored progress rail
  • context window usage with a colored progress rail
  • full cost breakdown: input, output, cache read, cache write, and total

Install

pi install npm:@nilskluewer/pi-cost-transparency-statusline
