[Feature Request] Vim mode indicator placement control or JSON status integration
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Apr 22, 2026 by sindrehenriksen Closed Apr 26, 2026
Bug Description
When vim input mode is enabled, the -- INSERT -- / -- NORMAL -- indicator renders on its own line below the custom statusLine output, using vertical space. Please consider either (a) a hideVimModeIndicator setting, or (b) including the current vim mode in the JSON piped to statusLine scripts, so users can render it inline with their own status info.
