Spinwait puts one labelled ad in your Claude Code status bar

Field notes

Spinwait wraps the user’s existing Claude Code status line after backing up the settings file, then adds a single sponsored row beneath it. The page specifies a 40-character advertiser-name limit, an 80-character tagline limit, double stripping of control characters, and a three-minute idle timeout. Rendering is described as local and network-free, while attribution uses a redirect and a detached background process. The site says the visible creative rotates every eight seconds and caps billable impressions at one per 25 seconds.
