## Prompt

```text
Using REFERENCE_0 as the functional layout and data source, redesign it as a polished monochrome neon-green retro terminal UI for an M5Stack-style low-resolution display. Keep the same concept of a Claude Code usage gauge with 2 usage panels: SESSION 5H and WEEKLY 7D. Convert the plain progress bars into segmented pixel bars with 24 rectangular blocks each, preserve the approximate usage values but update the visible numbers to {session_percentage} and {weekly_percentage}. Add thin glowing green borders around each panel, pixel/bitmap typography, small target/crosshair icons beside the panel titles, and clock icons beside the reset lines. Replace the simple title with a decorative header reading {headline_text}, flanked by terminal-like slashes and line ornaments. At the bottom, add a retro status row with a flag/terminal outline icon, green connection dot, {connection_label}, MODE=FAST, {time}, and CHG 75% with a small battery/charging icon. Use a black background, bright CRT green lines, crisp pixel art styling, and make the result look like a refined embedded-device dashboard rather than a flat chart.
```
