Teach rtk read and smart summaries to recognize Lua source files so comment stripping, function extraction, module shape, and import extraction use Lua syntax. Improve Lua rtk smart output for agent triage: capped function counts are marked explicitly, exported module tables are separated from local implementation tables, public module methods and constructors outrank helper functions, Busted specs summarize describe/it behavior instead of mock helpers, and require dependencies are grouped into internal versus external buckets with stable ordering. Add compact luacheck and busted handlers, wire them through CLI parsing and command discovery, and cover the Lua filters and smart-summary heuristics with focused routing, savings, and summary tests. Deliberately skip a lua or luajit interpreter wrapper because raw program output is arbitrary passthrough and does not provide meaningful token savings.

Summary
This adds Lua support to RTK:
rtk luacheckandrtk bustedcommand proxies, with trailing argument forwarding and compact filtered output.rtk smart/ local LLM code summaries for Lua so agents get useful triage signals: module vs function/spec summaries, exports and locals, Busted spec cues, and dependency classification.Why
Lua-heavy repositories currently fall through more generic handling even though the outputs are very compressible and common in agent workflows. This branch makes the Lua paths explicit so lint/test output and code-summary reads preserve the high-signal parts an agent needs while dropping repetitive noise.
Project-scope RTK evidence from my Lua project:
rtk luacheck --codes ...: 85 runs, 129.2K tokens saved, 99.4% average savingsrtk busted spec: 85 runs, 9.6K tokens saved, 94.4% average savingsI also added some guidance to use
rtk read -l minimalandrtk read -l aggressiveand seeing some good savings too.rtk smartis not as useful for my project but could be useful for other.Validation
