# Uninstalling

Complete guide to removing the Claude Code Status Line.

## Quick Uninstall

The easiest way to uninstall is using the automated uninstall command:

```
/uninstall-statusline
```

This will:
- Remove the binary and all configuration files
- Remove all slash commands
- Restore Claude Code to default settings (no statusline)
- Optionally backup your settings before removal

---

## What Gets Removed

The uninstall process removes:

1. **Binary**: `~/.claude/statusline/claude-code-status-line`
2. **Configuration files**:
   - `~/.claude/statusline/settings.json`
   - `~/.claude/statusline/colors.json`
   - `~/.claude/statusline/quota_cache.json` (if exists)
3. **Slash commands**:
   - `/install-statusline`
   - `/update-statusline`
   - `/customize-statusline`
   - `/uninstall-statusline`
4. **Claude Code configuration**: Removes `statusLine` section from `~/.claude/settings.json`

---

## Backup Option

During uninstallation, you'll be offered the option to backup your configuration:

- **Backup location**: `~/Downloads/statusline-backup-[timestamp]/`
- **Files backed up**: `settings.json`, `colors.json`

This allows you to restore your custom configuration if you reinstall later.

---

## Manual Uninstallation

If the `/uninstall-statusline` command is not available, you can manually remove the statusline:

### macOS / Linux

```bash
# Remove binary and configuration
rm -rf ~/.claude/statusline/

# Remove slash commands
rm -f ~/.claude/commands/install-statusline.md
rm -f ~/.claude/commands/update-statusline.md
rm -f ~/.claude/commands/customize-statusline.md
rm -f ~/.claude/commands/uninstall-statusline.md
```

Then manually edit `~/.claude/settings.json` and remove the `statusLine` section:

```json
{
  "statusLine": {
    "type": "command",
    "command": "...",
    "padding": 0
  }
}
```

### Windows (PowerShell)

```powershell
# Remove binary and configuration
Remove-Item -Path "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\statusline" -Recurse -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

# Remove slash commands
Remove-Item "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\commands\install-statusline.md" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Remove-Item "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\commands\update-statusline.md" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Remove-Item "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\commands\customize-statusline.md" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Remove-Item "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\commands\uninstall-statusline.md" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
```

Then manually edit `%USERPROFILE%\.claude\settings.json` and remove the `statusLine` section.

---

## After Uninstalling

**Restart Claude Code** to apply changes. Your CLI will return to the default prompt without the statusline.

---

## Reinstalling

To reinstall the statusline later:

1. Visit the [official site](https://ndave92.github.io/claude-code-status-line/)
2. Copy and run the installation command
3. Run `/install-statusline` in Claude Code

Your previous backup (if created) can be restored manually:
```bash
cp ~/Downloads/statusline-backup-[timestamp]/*.json ~/.claude/statusline/
```
