Command reference ยท Claude Code
/status
Opens the settings interface to the Status tab with version, model, account, and connectivity.
/status opens the settings UI directly on the status tab and shows you at a glance the installed Claude Code version, the model currently in use, the signed-in account, and the connection status to Anthropic. This is handy for quick debugging: if Claude behaves unexpectedly, seems to be using the wrong model, or there are connection issues, you can see the current state here immediately. On Amazon Bedrock, /status additionally shows where the AWS region being used comes from. Unlike most commands, /status โ like /tasks and /usage โ runs immediately without interrupting the current response: you can type it even in the middle of a Claude turn, without having to wait for Claude to finish answering.
โ WHEN TO USE IT?
Check version/model/account/connection
Call /status to see which Claude Code version, which model, and which account are currently active, e.g. when debugging unexpected behavior
Query status in the middle of a running response
While Claude is still answering, type /status to check the version or connectivity, without interrupting or waiting for the running response
โ WHEN NOT TO?
Looking for token/cost info
/status shows version, model, account, and connectivity, but no usage or cost data.
Better: Use /usage (aliases: /cost, /stats)
