✅ WHEN TO USE IT?

Check version/model/account

Call /status to see which Claude Code version, model, and account are currently active, e.g. when debugging unexpected behavior.

Check connectivity mid-response

While Claude is still responding, open /status to check connectivity without interrupting the current answer.

⛔ WHEN NOT TO?

Looking for token/cost info

/status shows version, model, account, and connectivity, not usage/cost data.

Better: Use /usage.
