gentle-ai v2.9.0: RTK community tool, Claude Code telemetry, OpenCode reviewer relay

Gentleman Programming shipped gentle-ai v2.8.1–v2.9.0 and gentle-pi v2.6.1–v2.6.3. Highlights include Claude Code runtime telemetry that attributes models by public family patterns, OpenCode SDD/reviewer relay semantic decoding, and opt-in RTK as a community tool (attested install to ~/.local/bin/rtk, configures only selected agents, telemetry off by default; Windows unavailable). gentle-pi adds subagent_reconcile so a parent can reconcile uncertain acquire/settle remediations without launching an actor or exposing tokens.

Key Takeaways

  • gentle-ai v2.9.0 adds opt-in RTK community tool with attested install and selected-agent-only config.
  • Claude Code Stop usage telemetry is idempotent and attributes models by public family patterns.
  • OpenCode reviewer relay decodes Task wrappers semantically; gentle-pi adds subagent_reconcile for uncertain remediations.

RTK: open-source tool compresses terminal output before the model — claims ~70% token savings

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.
