prompt-hint-trim

README

A Claude Code mod (function hooks) that drops low-value parts from the footer line under the prompt (PromptHint).

Behavior

The footer text is split on · and the following parts are removed:
N shell / N shells: the background-jobs-band mod already shows the same information above the prompt.
← for agents: a reminder of a key binding. The ← key itself still works.
Only parts that match exactly are removed. For example, 2 shells running elsewhere is kept.
When nothing is removed, the engine's own line is drawn unchanged, so its colors and links stay.
When something is removed, the whole line is replaced with the remaining text, because the footer has no per-part API. If every part is removed, the line is empty.
auto mode on is drawn by a separate component and is not affected.
