Two lines in ice cyan and apricot: a per-session emoji, your computer's name, and the project with its git branch; then the model and context use. A label in an optional ~/.config/starfield-terminal/config.json replaces the computer name. Python standard library only, no network calls.

Three Minecraft-style lines: the model tinted by material (netherite, diamond, gold or iron), folder, git branch, cost, session time and cache tokens; hearts for five-hour usage and drumsticks for seven-day usage, emptying as they climb, with reset countdowns; then an XP bar for the context window. Node built-ins only, no network calls.
