Land RTK across Claude, Grok, and Codex - #20
Conversation
Inline the slim RTK instructions so Grok and T3 actually see them instead of a Claude-only @RTK.md include. Add a PreToolUse adapter that normalizes Grok's camelCase payload before `rtk hook claude`, and wire that adapter into Claude settings, Grok hooks, and Codex hooks.json.

Keep non-RTK hooks in mixed entries.
_is_rtk_entry returns true when any hook in an entry matches RTK. Line 59 then removes the whole entry. For example, an entry containing an audit hook and rtk hook claude loses the audit hook on the next apply. Remove only matching RTK hook objects. Keep the parent entry when it still has other hooks.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Preserve the complete Bash tool input when normalizing the payload. The registered Claude, Codex, and Grok hooks can receive Bash inputs with fields beyond command. rtk hook claude returns updatedInput, which replaces the full tool_input; rebuilding it with only command can discard execution options. Copy the original input and replace only command.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Add a timeout to the rtk subprocess.
Claude Code bounds PreToolUse hooks to 30 seconds when no hook timeout is configured, so a blocked rtk hook claude process cannot block indefinitely. It can still delay a Claude Bash call for up to 30 seconds. Add the same five-second bound used by the other registrations and catch subprocess.TimeoutExpired.

["rtk", "hook", "claude"],
