[chrisdpurcell]

v1.6.0 is out 🎉 — Release notes · Changelog

The status line now renders as two lines instead of one, making it readable on narrower terminals. Colors are unchanged.

Highlights

• Two-line grid with aligned pipes — each column sizes itself to its content, and the separators stack vertically. Row 1: model with the ✦ thinking marker and effort level, tokens, 5-hour usage, cwd@branch. Row 2: CLI version, extra usage, 7-day usage, worktree. Cells with no data render a dim - so the grid never shifts.
• Two new segments — the worktree name appears when the session runs in a Claude Code --worktree isolation session, and unstaged line changes now get their own stacked column (green +added over red -removed) while the tree is dirty.
• Extra usage is always visible when enabled — including a $0 month, so you can see the limit at a glance; whole dollars drop the cents ($0/$25).
• Verified on the bash macOS ships — the release was smoke-tested end-to-end against bash 3.2.57 (macOS's /bin/bash), which caught and fixed a locale bug that could misalign the grid on non-UTF-8 locales.
