Show status line during permission prompts and user questions
Feature Request
The status line is currently hidden during permission prompts and AskUserQuestion interactions. It would be valuable to keep the status line visible during these moments.
Why This Matters
When running multiple Claude Code instances simultaneously — each in a different repo or on a different git branch — the status line provides critical context (git branch, project path, model, context usage) that directly influences how the user answers the question Claude is asking.
Without the status line, the user has to rely on memory or terminal window titles to determine which instance they're responding to, which is error-prone and can lead to approving or denying the wrong action in the wrong project.
Current Behavior
The status line is hidden during:
- Permission prompts (tool approval/denial)
AskUserQuestioninteractions- Autocomplete suggestions
- Help menu
Requested Behavior
Keep the status line visible during permission prompts and AskUserQuestion interactions at minimum, as these are the moments where the user is actively making decisions and most needs the contextual information the status line provides.
