What issue are you seeing?
The /statusline picker exposes both context-remaining and context-remaining-percent as separate user-selectable options, but in the current implementation they render the exact same footer text: Context {remaining}% left.
Because they are separate IDs in the picker, both can be enabled at the same time, which produces duplicate footer output such as:
Context 100% left · Context 100% left
From a user perspective this looks like a bug, or at least an uncollapsed compatibility alias that leaked into the UI.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Run Codex CLI 0.121.0.
- Open
/statusline.
- Notice that both
context-remaining and context-remaining-percent are listed as separate options with the same description.
- Enable both options.
- Return to the main TUI and observe the footer.
What is the expected behavior?
Only one user-facing option should be shown for this feature, unless the two options intentionally render different information.
Reasonable fixes would be either:
- keep only one visible option in
/statusline and treat the other as a backward-compatible config alias, or
- make the two options render distinct output if both are intended to remain user-facing.
Additional information
This seems adjacent to #17438, but this report is specifically about duplicate selectable options and duplicate footer rendering, not the earlier meter-vs-percent regression.
I also confirmed this in the current codebase: StatusLineItem::ContextRemaining and StatusLineItem::ContextRemainingPercent are separate selectable IDs, but both map to the same rendered string branch in the status-line renderer.
