Conversation
Salvaged from PR #1104 by kshitijk4poor. Closes #683. Adds a persistent status bar to the CLI showing model name, context window usage with visual bar, estimated cost, and session duration. Responsive layout degrades gracefully for narrow terminals. Changes: - agent/usage_pricing.py: shared pricing table, cost estimation with Decimal arithmetic, duration/token formatting helpers - agent/insights.py: refactored to reuse usage_pricing (eliminates duplicate pricing table and formatting logic) - cli.py: status bar with FormattedTextControl fragments, color-coded context thresholds (green/yellow/orange/red), enhanced /usage with cost breakdown, 1Hz idle refresh for status bar updates - tests/test_cli_status_bar.py: status bar snapshot, width collapsing, usage report with/without pricing, zero-priced model handling - tests/test_insights.py: verify zero-priced providers show as unknown Salvage fixes: - Resolved conflict with voice status bar (both coexist in layout) - Import _format_context_length from hermes_cli.banner (moved since PR)

Summary
Salvage of PR #1104 by @kshitijk4poor. Closes #683.
Adds a persistent status bar to the CLI that shows model name, context window usage (with visual bar), estimated cost, and session duration.
Status Bar
Responsive — degrades for narrow terminals:
Color-coded context thresholds: green (< 50%), yellow (50–80%), orange (80–95%), red (≥ 95%).
Enhanced
/usageCommandNow shows model name, per-category cost breakdown (input/output), session duration. Zero-priced provider models (GLM, Kimi, MiniMax) correctly show "n/a" instead of "$0.00".
Shared Pricing Module
Extracts pricing table + cost estimation + duration formatting from
agent/insights.pyintoagent/usage_pricing.py. Eliminates duplicate code between/insightsand/usage. UsesDecimalarithmetic to avoid floating-point rounding.Files Changed
