Dashboard and terminal for RTK — the CLI proxy that cuts LLM token usage by 60–90% on common dev commands, directly inside VS Code.
What is RTK?
RTK (Rust Token Killer) is a lightweight CLI proxy that intercepts commands run by AI coding assistants and rewrites them to produce far more compact output. Instead of cargo test dumping thousands of lines, rtk cargo test emits only failures and a summary.
This extension puts RTK's analytics and command runner inside your editor, so you can see your savings without leaving VS Code.
