PR Status in Footer - Claude Code
Clickable PR link in the footer with review state color coding.
When your branch has an open PR, Claude Code surfaces it right in the footer - no more tab-switching to GitHub just to check review status.
What it does
The footer shows the PR number and a color indicator: green for approved, yellow for changes requested or pending, red for failing checks, and a separate state for merged. You can click the link (in supported terminals) to jump straight to the PR page. Claude can also reference the state in responses.
When to use it
- Knowing at a glance whether your PR is green without leaving the terminal.
- Monitoring CI status passively while you keep coding.
- Pairing with
gh pr viewfor deeper detail when the color shifts. - Team workflows where review cycle time matters.
Gotchas
- Requires
ghto be authenticated and the current branch to match an open PR. - Status polls on an interval - very recent changes may take a few seconds to show.
- Click-to-open depends on your terminal supporting OSC 8 hyperlinks.
