Why

In a git worktree the folder is named after the branch, so the statusline printed the same string twice:

sim-276-badge-dynamic-type │ ⎇ sim-276-badge-dynamic-type │ GPT-5.6 Sol │ Ctx: 23% │ Week: 20% ▓▓░░░░░░░░

That first segment was basename $PWD, faithful to the captured statusline script — but useless in a worktree.

What changed

simpler │ ⎇ sim-276-badge-dynamic-type │ GPT-5.6 Sol · high │ Ctx: 23% │ Week: 20% ▓▓░░░░░░░░

Directory segment names the main repository. Resolved via git rev-parse --path-format=absolute --git-common-dir, which reports the main checkout's .git from a linked worktree. Memoized per cwd because render() runs every frame. Outside a repo, or if git fails, it falls back to the cwd basename, exactly as before.
Effort suffix on the model segment. pi exposes the live level through ctx.getThinkingLevel(); the footer appends it compactly (GPT-5.6 Sol · high), hidden when the level is off or unavailable. New footerEffort boolean row in the Footer section, default on, read at render time so the toggle reflects live without a reinstall.

Both are deliberate divergences from Claude Code — its script has no effort segment and shows effort only in banner prose ("Fable 5 with high effort"). Recorded in docs/plans/2026-07-16-cc-input-box-footer.md.

Validation

bun run test — 15/15 suites green, including new coverage for projectNameFrom (linked worktree, main checkout, bare repo, non-repo, trailing slash), the effort suffix grammar in all three color modes' model segment, and the live footerEffort toggle.
tsc --strict clean over all four entry points.
Drove the real installClaudeFooter path against the actual ~/Projects/worktrees/simpler/sim-276-badge-dynamic-type worktree; it renders simpler │ ⎇ sim-276-badge-dynamic-type │ GPT-5.6 Sol · high │ Ctx: 23%.
Not yet smoked in a live pi session — that happens before the release publish.

feat(footer): name the repository and show effort 68b6ff7a7a

The first statusline segment printed `basename $PWD`, faithful to the captured
statusline script but degenerate inside a git worktree, where the folder is
named after the branch — the footer read
`sim-276-badge │ ⎇ sim-276-badge │ …`. It now resolves the main repository
through `git rev-parse --git-common-dir` (memoized per cwd, since render() runs
every frame) and falls back to the cwd basename outside a repo.

The model segment also carries pi's live thinking level as a compact suffix
(`Fable 5 · high`), hidden when thinking is off and toggleable via the new
`footerEffort` row in the Footer section.

Both are deliberate divergences from Claude Code, recorded in
docs/plans/2026-07-16-cc-input-box-footer.md.
