How it works

Claude Code
  ├─ SessionStart → session-start.js   auto-patches settings.json
  ├─ statusLine   → statusline.js      renders status bar (Node.js, no deps)
  ├─ PostToolUse  → post-tool.js       tracks requests + lines
  └─ Stop         → stop.js            daily/weekly usage accumulation
