I can't find the relevant issues in their repo, but I've been somewhat skeptical of their tool over-reporting token savings and there are many issues to that effect in the repo.

I'm not likely to install it again in my latest configuration, instead applying some specific tricks to things like `make test` to spit out zero output exit on unsuccessful error codes, that sort of thing. Anecdotally, I see GPT-5.5 often automatically applying context limiting flags to the bash it writes :shrug:

I've had the same experience with RTK, where my agent got stuck in a loop with a faulty RTK command and could not escape it since RTK hard overwrites anything automatically. I've uninstalled it again for the time being.
