Install

tern plugin install github.com/getpipher/tern-status

or, for development (hot-reload on save):

git clone https://github.com/getpipher/tern-status
tern plugin link tern-status

Requires Tern (closed beta) and macOS — data comes from iostat, vm_stat, pmset, ping and df.

Notes

• Segments use Tern's semantic tones (muted/ok/error/accent), so they follow your theme in light and dark.
• Refresh cadence: cpu 5s, memory 5s, battery 30s, online 15s, disk 30s, clock 5s. Each poll re-arms itself; idle cost is one timer tick.
• Disk reads the home directory (hardcoded absolute path — tern.process.run spawns without a shell, so ~ never expands). Edit HOME in window.luau for your machine.
• The status line shows only while the status bar is on: ⌘K → "Show status line".
