Show HN: Codex HUD – Claude-HUD Style Status Line for Codex CLI
anhm720 Friday, February 13, 2026
I built Codex HUD to make Codex CLI sessions easier to monitor without leaving the terminal.
It adds a real-time status line with:
- active model
- project + git branch/dirty state
- 5h and 7d usage bars
- automatic Spark vs default limit selection
Quick install:
git clone https://github.com/anhannin/codex-hud.git
cd codex-hud/Codex-HUD
./install.sh
Feedback I’m looking for:
- portability across Linux distros/shell setups
- readability on narrow terminal widths
- edge cases in usage/rate parsing
Repo issues are welcome if you hit bugs.
