Description
The status line at the bottom of the terminal displays 102% context usage after running the /clear command, even though the actual context has been cleared.
Steps to Reproduce
- Use Claude Code until context is near or above 100%
- Run
/clearto clear the context - Observe the status line still shows 102% (or the pre-clear percentage)
Expected Behavior
The status line should refresh to show the actual context usage after clearing (should be a low percentage like 35% or less).
Actual Behavior
Status line remains stuck at 102% even after:
- Running
/clear - Running
/context(which correctly shows ~35%) - Pressing Enter on empty prompt
- Running other commands
Environment
- Platform: Linux (Raspberry Pi 5)
- OS Version: Linux 6.12.47+rpt-rpi-2712
Notes
The /context command shows the correct token count, so the issue appears to be a UI refresh bug specific to the status line display.
