Ready-to-use cship.toml configurations — from the recommended full-featured setup down to a minimal single-line bar. Each can be dropped into ~/.config/cship.toml.

---

1. Hero / Recommended

My personal setup, end to end. Top row: $starship_prompt running Starship's Catppuccin Powerline preset. Bottom row: model, cost, context bar, 7-day per-model usage, extra credits, peak-hours indicator — thresholds escalate cool → warn → critical as budgets fill.

2. Minimal

One clean row. Model, cost with colour thresholds, context bar.

[cship]
lines = ["$cship.model  $cship.cost  $cship.context_bar"]

[cship.cost]
style              = "green"
warn_threshold     = 2.0
warn_style         = "yellow"
critical_threshold = 5.0
critical_style     = "bold red"

[cship.context_bar]
width              = 10
warn_threshold     = 40.0
warn_style         = "yellow"
critical_threshold = 70.0
critical_style     = "bold red"

---

3. Git-Aware Developer

Two rows: Starship git status on top, Claude session below.

Starship passthrough ($directory, $git_branch, $git_status) requires Starship to be installed. Each Claude family gets its own colour via haiku_style / sonnet_style / opus_style so you can tell which model you're talking to at a glance.

[cship]
lines = [
  "$directory $git_branch $git_status",
  "$cship.model  $cship.cost  $cship.context_bar",
]

[cship.model]
symbol       = "🤖 "
haiku_style  = "bold green"
sonnet_style = "bold cyan"
opus_style   = "bold magenta"

[cship.cost]
warn_threshold     = 2.0
warn_style         = "yellow"
critical_threshold = 5.0
critical_style     = "bold red"

[cship.context_bar]
width              = 10
warn_threshold     = 40.0
warn_style         = "yellow"
critical_threshold = 70.0
critical_style     = "bold red"

---

4. Cost Guardian

Shows cost, lines changed, rolling API usage limits, and a peak-time indicator. Colour escalates as budgets fill. Displays the cost in GBP via currency_symbol + conversion_rate — thresholds are evaluated against the converted display value, so restate them in your display currency.

[cship]
lines = [
  "$cship.model $cship.cost +$cship.cost.total_lines_added -$cship.cost.total_lines_removed",
  "$cship.context_bar $cship.usage_limits $cship.peak_usage",
]

[cship.model]
style = "bold purple"

[cship.cost]
currency_symbol    = "£"
conversion_rate    = 0.79
warn_threshold     = 0.8     # thresholds are in the display currency (GBP)
warn_style         = "bold yellow"
critical_threshold = 2.4
critical_style     = "bold red"

[cship.context_bar]
width              = 10
warn_threshold     = 40.0
warn_style         = "yellow"
critical_threshold = 70.0
critical_style     = "bold red"

[cship.usage_limits]
ttl                = 60        # cache TTL in seconds; increase if running many concurrent sessions
five_hour_format   = "5h {pct}%"
seven_day_format   = "7d {pct}%"
separator          = " "
warn_threshold     = 70.0
warn_style         = "bold yellow"
critical_threshold = 90.0
critical_style     = "bold red"

[cship.peak_usage]
style = "bold yellow"

5. Material Hex

Every style value is a fg:#rrggbb hex colour — no named colours anywhere. Amber warns, coral criticals. Uses filled_char / empty_char to swap the default blocky bar for dotted glyphs (● / ○).

[cship]
lines = [
  "$cship.model $cship.cost",
  "$cship.context_bar $cship.usage_limits",
]

[cship.model]
style = "fg:#c3e88d"

[cship.cost]
style              = "fg:#82aaff"
warn_threshold     = 2.0
warn_style         = "fg:#ffcb6b"
critical_threshold = 6.0
critical_style     = "bold fg:#f07178"

[cship.context_bar]
width              = 10
filled_char        = "●"
empty_char         = "○"
style              = "fg:#89ddff"
warn_threshold     = 40.0
warn_style         = "fg:#ffcb6b"
critical_threshold = 70.0
critical_style     = "bold fg:#f07178"

[cship.usage_limits]
five_hour_format   = "5h {pct}%"
seven_day_format   = "7d {pct}%"
separator          = " "
warn_threshold     = 70.0
warn_style         = "fg:#ffcb6b"
critical_threshold = 90.0
critical_style     = "bold fg:#f07178"

6. Tokyo Night

Three-row layout for polyglot developers. Starship handles language runtimes and git; cship handles session data. Styled with the Tokyo Night colour palette.

[cship]
lines = [
  """
  $directory\
  $git_branch\
  $git_status\
  $python\
  $nodejs\
  $rust
  """,
  "$cship.model $cship.agent",
  "$cship.context_bar $cship.cost $cship.usage_limits",
]

[cship.model]
symbol = "🤖 "
style  = "bold fg:#7aa2f7"

[cship.agent]
symbol = "↳ "
style  = "fg:#9ece6a"

[cship.context_bar]
width              = 10
style              = "fg:#7dcfff"
warn_threshold     = 40.0
warn_style         = "fg:#e0af68"
critical_threshold = 70.0
critical_style     = "bold fg:#f7768e"

[cship.cost]
symbol             = "💰 "
style              = "fg:#a9b1d6"
warn_threshold     = 2.0
warn_style         = "fg:#e0af68"
critical_threshold = 5.0
critical_style     = "bold fg:#f7768e"

[cship.usage_limits]
five_hour_format   = "⌛ 5h {pct}%"
seven_day_format   = "📅 7d {pct}%"
separator          = " "
warn_threshold     = 70.0
warn_style         = "fg:#e0af68"
critical_threshold = 90.0
critical_style     = "bold fg:#f7768e"

7. Nerd Fonts

Requires a Nerd Font in your terminal. Icons are embedded as symbol values on each module and as literal characters in the format string for Starship passthrough rows. Enables show_per_model = true to append the 7-day per-model breakdown to $cship.usage_limits, with a custom sonnet_format row.

[cship]
lines = [
  """
  $directory\
  $git_branch\
  $git_status\
  $python\
  $nodejs\
  $rust
  """,
  "$cship.model $cship.cost $cship.context_bar $cship.usage_limits",
]

[cship.model]
symbol = " " # nf-fa-microchip
style  = "bold fg:#7aa2f7"

[cship.cost]
symbol             = "💰 "
style              = "fg:#a9b1d6"
warn_threshold     = 2.0
warn_style         = "fg:#e0af68"
critical_threshold = 5.0
critical_style     = "bold fg:#f7768e"

[cship.context_bar]
symbol             = " " # nf-fa-database
format             = "[$symbol$value]($style)"
width              = 10
style              = "fg:#7dcfff"
warn_threshold     = 40.0
warn_style         = "fg:#e0af68"

show_per_model     = true
warn_threshold     = 70.0
warn_style         = "fg:#e0af68"
critical_threshold = 90.0
critical_style     = "bold fg:#f7768e"
