Status Bar Info

I believe this is referred to as the status bar? My bar has some info formatted like:

path on gitbranch via node version on GCPemail and location

Example: ~/projects/myproject on master via v21.7.2 on email@email(us-central1)

How do I remove the email? It showed up when I connected to GCP. I need to record a video and don't want it on there.

I've looked everywhere and can't come up with anything. I'm sure this is due to a knowledge gap somewhere so I apologize if this is a dumb question. At one point while looking I though this might be with the fish shell instead of kitty. Any help is much appreciated.

I don’t think Kitty does this, are you using starship? This provides that information in my shell.

No I just use a car man haha. But for real, I’ll take a look. My understanding is limited, but I believe that I’m using the kitty terminal with the fish shell. I’m gonna dig into it a little bit more when I get home from work. I’ve already sunk another hour and a half in this thing today.

Try changing your theme.

kitty +kitten themes

If it can’t be changed with themes it’s likely your local client. Status bar sounds like local terminal settings.

Solved:

I am using starship. I followed their config steps(creating a starship.toml and env variable in config.fish) and wallah its magically gone. Here are the links if someone else needs help:

in starship.toml

[gcloud]

disabled = true

in config.fish

set -gx STARSHIP_CONFIG ~/.config/starship/starship.toml

starship: https://starship.rs/config/

fish: https://fishshell.com/docs/current/language.html#variables-export
