About this resource

Source notes

  • npm documents npm publish behavior and package metadata that affects publication.
  • npm also documents npm pack --dry-run; this statusline intentionally avoids publishing and leaves dry-run verification to a separate release command.

Duplicate check

Checked existing statuslines, live HeyClaude statuslines, open pull requests, and repository content for npm-publish-readiness-statusline, package publish readiness, npm publish, release readiness, and package statuslines. No statusline entry or open PR with this slug or npm publish-readiness focus was found.

Safety notesThe script does not run `npm publish`; by default it only reads local package metadata and git status. npm login visibility is disabled by default because `npm whoami` can contact the configured registry; set `NPM_STATUSLINE_CHECK_WHOAMI=1` only for trusted projects. Optional `npm whoami` checks require the `timeout` command and are capped at 3 seconds to avoid stalled statusline rendering. Readiness is a checklist signal, not approval to publish; run `npm pack --dry-run` and project release checks separately. Dirty lockfiles or package metadata should be reviewed before release tagging.Coverage percentage is a testing signal, not proof that behavior is correct or edge cases are covered. Do not run coverage generation inside a fast-refreshing statusline; read an existing summary file instead. Use project-specific thresholds so generated files and intentionally excluded code do not create misleading pressure.Claude Code Analytics data is daily aggregated and can lag recent activity, so the burn-rate display is a pacing signal rather than real-time billing control. Keep the refresh interval moderate because the statusline calls an authenticated Admin API endpoint. Treat budget thresholds as operational prompts; reconcile invoices and Console reports before making spending decisions.Context percentage is only as accurate as the configured limit and the usage fields available in the statusline input. Use the warning as a cue to summarize or checkpoint work before context pressure affects reasoning quality. Do not treat a low percentage as proof that all relevant files, instructions, or tool results are still in scope.
Privacy notesThe output prints package name and version, which can reveal unreleased package plans in screenshots. With `NPM_STATUSLINE_CHECK_WHOAMI=1`, npm login visibility follows local npm configuration and can send credentials to the configured registry. package.json can contain private package names; avoid sharing terminal output when those names are sensitive.The script reads a local coverage summary and prints only aggregate line coverage. Coverage paths inside the JSON file can contain repository structure; avoid printing raw summaries in shared logs. Team baselines can reveal internal quality gates if screenshots are shared externally.The script sends an Admin API request to Anthropic and receives organization-level Claude Code analytics. It prints aggregate cost, session, and budget numbers, not email addresses, model names, prompts, file paths, or code. Admin API keys can expose organization analytics; store them in a scoped local secret manager or shell environment with restricted access. The script feeds the API key to curl through a config file descriptor instead of command-line arguments and unsets the exported key before launching curl, reducing process-list exposure on shared machines.The script reads local session counters and does not inspect prompt text, files, or transcript contents. Token counts and configured limits can still reveal workload size in screenshots or shared terminal logs. Teams should avoid placing customer names or project identifiers in shell variables that appear in debugging output.
Prerequisites
  • Node.js project with package.json.
  • jq available for reading package metadata.
  • npm CLI installed only if optional login visibility is enabled with `NPM_STATUSLINE_CHECK_WHOAMI=1`.
  • Istanbul-compatible coverage report with `coverage/coverage-summary.json` or COVERAGE_SUMMARY_JSON set.
  • jq and awk available in the shell used by Claude Code.
  • COVERAGE_BASELINE_PCT set when the project baseline is not 80 percent.
  • Anthropic Admin API access for an organization with Claude Code Analytics enabled.
  • ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_API_KEY set in the statusline environment; prefer a narrowly scoped/read-only credential if Anthropic offers one for analytics access.
  • curl and jq available on the machine running the Claude Code statusline command.
  • Optional CLAUDE_CODE_ANALYTICS_EMAIL to limit the display to one user and CLAUDE_CODE_DAILY_BUDGET_USD to set the budget denominator.
  • Claude Code statusline support with local JSON input.
  • jq available for reading session usage fields.
  • Optional CLAUDE_CONTEXT_LIMIT set to the model or workflow limit your team wants to track.
