rtk-ai/rtk

From the README

Agent-agnostic token optimization: compress, route, filter, and more. One composable pipeline across everything your AI agent reads and sends — built on RTK's battle-tested bash-output compression (up to 90% smaller).

Setup prompt

Paste this into Cursor or Claude Code. It only includes install lines found in the README, and it asks the agent to review the code first.

Set up the GitHub repository rtk-ai/rtk (CLI proxy that reduces LLM token consumption by 60-90% on common dev commands. Single Rust binary, zero dependencies).
Repository: https://github.com/rtk-ai/rtk

Official install commands found in the README:
brew install rtk                                              # macOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rtk-ai/rtk/refs/heads/master/install.sh | sh

Clone the repository and follow those steps. Do not invent package names or extra install commands.
Review the code before running anything.
