Status bar and commands

KoNiMa Claude Sync keeps you informed at a glance: an item in the VS Code status bar always shows the sync status, and the main operations are within reach from the Command Palette without opening the dashboard.

The status bar

At the bottom right, the Claude Sync item is always visible. Clicking it opens a quick menu with Open dashboard, Sync now and Show logs.

Indicator next to “Claude Sync”	Meaning (from the item’s tooltip)
Spinning icon	Syncing…
Green dot	Claude Sync — up to date: everything is synced.
Yellow dot	Local changes waiting for the next sync.
Red dot	Last sync failed — click for details.
Yellow triangle	Your Claude folder was not found, nothing is syncing: open the dashboard to fix it.
Padlock	No valid license — click to activate.
No indicator	Syncing is handled by another VS Code window, or hasn’t started yet.

Note

When several VS Code windows are open, only one drives syncing. In the others the item shows just “Claude Sync”, with the tooltip Sync managed by another VS Code window.

Command Palette commands

Open the Command Palette (F1, or Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+P) and type Claude Sync to filter.

Command	What it does
Claude Sync: Open Dashboard	Opens the dashboard.
Claude Sync: Sync Now	Runs a full sync right away.
Claude Sync: Show Status	Opens the quick menu (dashboard, sync, logs).
Claude Sync: Show Output	Opens the Claude Sync activity log.
Claude Sync: Configure Remote	Asks for the repository URL, username and token.
Claude Sync: Remove License	Removes the license from this machine.
Claude Sync: Reinitialize (wipe local clones and re-sync)	Downloads the local copy from the repository again and re-syncs. In the Team edition you can choose which repository.
Claude Sync: Compact Repository History	Reduces the repository history to a single point; the earlier history remains recoverable.
Claude Sync: Remove Local Data (Uninstall)	Takes Claude Sync off this machine: frees the seat, deletes the local copies and backups, removes credentials and license.

Caution

Remove Local Data also deletes Claude Sync’s backups and asks for confirmation before going ahead. It removes from Claude’s settings only the entries Claude Sync had added: your settings, commands and memories stay. If the machine has items that came from the team, it asks whether to remove them along with Claude Sync or keep them: see Leaving the team.
