About the project
A Rust CLI proxy that filters and compresses bash command output before it reaches the LLM context, cutting token usage by 60–90%. It hooks into Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other agents.
Useful for
- Cut token usage when a coding agent runs git, tests and builds
- Install the hook via rtk init -g so commands are auto-rewritten to rtk variants
- Check token savings statistics with rtk gain

Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.
Why it’s trending
- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-29 (UTC), 00:05–10:00: 84889 → 84934 stars (+45). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +106 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- About 17 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
