What is soffit?

Native desktop editor

9 built-in widgets

Plugin system

Install Claude Code's default statusline is fine, until you realize you can't change it. You can't reorder widgets, remove ones you don't care about, or add your own. If you've ever wanted to see your git branch, token costs, and quota all at a glance without the noise, read on. A drop-in replacement for Claude Code's statusline that gives you full control over what shows up, where, and how. No config files to hand-edit. Open the editor, drag widgets around, toggle compact mode, preview changes live. Want something that's not built in? Drop a shell script in ~/.config/soffit/plugins/ and it appears in the editor automatically. Community plugins install with one command: Write a plugin, push it to GitHub, and anyone can install it. Or the install script (Linux + macOS): Stars, issues, and plugin contributions welcome in our GitHub repo Built in Rust. Open source. MIT licensed. Templates let you quickly answer FAQs or store snippets for re-use. Hide child comments as well For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
