Context

The two-line status bar has room in the right segment for a fleet-wide summary.
@claude_status is set per window.

Proposal

Render an at-a-glance count of session states in status-right, e.g.
⏳3 ❓1 ✓1 (busy / needs-permission / done) so one glance tells you the state
of every Claude window without scanning tabs.

Implementation sketch

  • Helper script iterates tmux list-windows -a -F '#{@claude_status}', tallies
    states, prints a compact glyph+count string.
  • Wire into the oh-my-tmux tmux_conf_theme_status_right (or a #() shell call)
    in dot_config/tmux/tmux.conf.local.tmpl, refreshed on status-interval.
  • Colour each count to match the existing marker palette
    (green/orange/red).

Effort

Small–medium (helper + status-right wiring; mind status redraw cost).

Part of the "attention routing" bundle.
