  • --label chart: the last 60 seconds, on the menu bar. The label slot could show a number or
    a fixed tag, but a single reading can't tell you whether a spike is just starting or already over,
    and the dropdown's sparkline only showed that after a click. A new label mode, Trace Chart
    (--label chart, CO_AWARENESS_LABEL=chart, or Settings ▸ Menu Bar Label), draws the active
    source's load history as a 45 pt bar sparkline in the adjacent slot. It uses the same
    green/amber/red thresholds as the dropdown (inverted for battery) and redraws on the same 2 s tick.
    The slot keeps a fixed width, so nothing beside it moves; a Keep Awake countdown sits next to the
    chart, closest to the icon, in the Keep Awake tint. Remembered across relaunches like the other modes.
    chart is now a reserved keyword, so a custom label reading literally "chart" can't be expressed.
