SketchyBar overlapped by app windows on external monitor

I am using Macbook Air M2 but sketchbar is overlapped by app window on external monitors like this:

If you are using yabai you can simply set an "external_bar" property to keep this space free from windows like this

yabai -m config external_bar all:35:0

Most other window managers seem to have a way to adjust the top padding to accommodate an external bar. Alternatively you could set sketchybar to draw on top of all windows by setting:

sketchybar --bar topmost=window

but this would of course hide parts of your window below the bar.
