Developer @midudev highlights open-source RTK (github.com/rtk-ai/rtk): it intercepts terminal command output and compresses it before it reaches coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and Codex, claiming about 70% token savings with automatic operation. Aimed at cutting token cost from verbose shell/log context in agent loops.

Key Takeaways

  • RTK intercepts and compresses terminal output before it hits the model.
  • Claims ~70% token savings with automatic operation.
  • Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codex; open-source at rtk-ai/rtk.
