Codex HUD
Terminal status footer for OpenAI Codex CLI sessions
Visit brandonwie.github.io ↗What is Codex HUD?
Codex HUD is a plugin for the OpenAI Codex CLI that displays a compact single-line footer showing model, effort level, git state, context budget usage, and pace metrics—all without leaving the prompt. The status line renders natively via a small Rust binary (574 KB, no unsafe code) for faster performance than Node-based alternatives.
Designed for developers using Codex in terminal sessions, it offers a configuration playground to customize colors, labels, and display format before installation. The maker reports it was built with Claude Code.
