What's Wrong?

## Description

statusLine configured in settings.json does not render any content on Windows CLI terminal. Even the simplest echo
command produces no visible output below the input prompt.

## Environment

• Claude Code: v2.1.92
• OS: Windows 11 Pro 10.0.26200
• Terminal: PowerShell in Windows Terminal
• Node.js: v24.14.1

## Steps to Reproduce

1. Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:

```json
"statusLine": {
"type": "command",
"command": "echo HUD-TEST-OK"
}

1. Restart Claude Code (claude)
2. No statusLine text appears below the input prompt

What I tried

• echo HUD-TEST-OK — no output
• node -e "console.log('HUD-TEST-OK')" — no output
• powershell -Command "Write-Output 'HUD-TEST-OK'" — no output
• Full claude-hud plugin command — no output

All commands work correctly when executed manually in the terminal.

Expected

statusLine text should appear below the > input prompt.
```
