claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Allow persistent prompt bar color via setting, flag, or hook output [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

Implementing a color field in settings.json or a --color <name> CLI flag could allow for automatic prompt bar color setting on launch.

Guidance

• Consider adding a color field to settings.json to store the desired prompt bar color, which can be read at startup.
• Evaluate the feasibility of introducing a --color <name> CLI flag to set the prompt bar color when launching the application.
• Investigate the possibility of utilizing environment variables, such as CLAUDE_PROMPT_COLOR, to set the prompt bar color.
• Assess the potential of modifying the SessionStart hook to emit a hookSpecificOutput.color field, if the application's architecture supports it.
