What feature would you like to see?

Feature request: configurable Codex CLI TUI status line.

I’d like to customize the TUI status line to show:

  • Model name
  • Current relative directory
  • Git branch/status
  • Cost so far in $
  • Tokens in/out (rounded to 1k)
  • Percent of context used

Ideally via ~/.codex/config.toml with a templated format string (e.g., {model} {cwd_rel} {git}
$ {cost} in:{tokens_in_k} out:{tokens_out_k} ctx:{context_pct}%
) and optional hide/format
controls.

Happy to provide more details or test.
