Rtk Rewrite Docker
Community plugin that rewrites Hermes terminal commands through RTK (rtk-ai/rtk, Apache-2.0) so the model sees compact output. Adds a backend gate: it rewrites only for terminal backends a profile opts in to (default local), so a Docker or remote backend without rtk never receives an rtk command. Fail-open pre_tool_call hook (2s timeout).
Good to know before installing
Every terminal command on an opted-in backend (default local) is passed to the rtk binary on the Hermes host's PATH (or RTK_BIN) and replaced with rtk's stdout before approval and execution; the plugin does not validate the rewrite, fails open on timeout or error, and downloads nothing (the repo's optional Containerfile fetches a checksum-pinned RTK release only when you build it). Not affiliated with rtk-ai.

How to install
- Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
hermes plugins install rtk-rewrite-docker - Said no? Turn it on later:
hermes plugins enable rtk-rewrite-docker - Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.
Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
