Problem Statement

Hi, I love /context command, but I would like to have a persistent simple % info on my model context usage in a session to monitor it, whether I want to restart it, or maybe I am giving it too much context at the initial prep input etc.

Proposed Solution

OpenCode has a very simple solution of showing % usage all the time with something like:

x tokens
x% used
$0.00 spend

I understand not everyone may want it enabled by default, but having an option to configure your status bar like opencode or like bash prompt wiht PS0/PS1 is probably something a lot of people would want.

TL;DR

Adding a configurable status bar or prompt to display model context usage could address the user's need for monitoring.

Guidance

  • Consider introducing a new command-line flag or configuration option to enable/disable the display of model context usage.
  • Consider using a similar format to OpenCode's solution, showing tokens used, percentage used, and spend.
  • Investigate how to integrate this feature with the existing /context command.
  • Determine the best way to make this feature configurable, such as through environment variables or a configuration file.

Example

No code example is provided as the issue does not contain sufficient technical details.

Notes

The implementation details of this feature are unclear and would require further discussion and design.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Introduce a new command-line flag or configuration option to enable/disable the display of model context usage, as this would allow users to opt-in to the feature and provide valuable feedback for future development.
