rtk-py
Python wrapper around rtk — a CLI proxy that reduces LLM token consumption by 60-90% on common dev commands.
This package downloads and installs the pre-built rtk binary for your platform, making it available via pip install.
All thanks to @pszymkowiak for the real meat, I am just a lowly wrapper man.
Installation
pip install rtk-py
uv pip install rtk-py
Usage
After installation, rtk is available for use:
rtk --version
rtk init --global
See the rtk documentation for full usage details.
Packaging Inspirations
This package follows the same pattern as shfmt-py and shellcheck-py. During pip install, it downloads the appropriate pre-built binary from the rtk GitHub releases and installs it into your Python environment's bin/ (or Scripts/) directory.
Version
The Python package version tracks the upstream rtk version with an additional Python release suffix: {rtk_version}.{py_release} (e.g., 0.28.2.1).
License
For the code in this repository — see LICENSE for details.
The rtk binary is distributed under MIT.
