What

Adds a dedicated Claude Code Setup section to the README, placed under Installation (right after Verify Installation).

Why

Claude Code is RTK's flagship integration, but the README previously only mentioned it inline in Quick Start (rtk init -g) and in the Supported AI Tools table. There was no single, step-by-step "here's how to wire RTK into Claude Code" section, which is the first thing most users want after installing the binary.

Changes

  • New ## Claude Code Setup section covering the three-step flow: install hook (rtk init -g), restart, verify (rtk init --show)
  • Brief explanation of what the hook does (transparent Bash rewrite, zero token overhead)
  • Common rtk init variants (project-only, --hook-only, --auto-patch, --uninstall)
  • Scope note: the hook only applies to Bash tool calls; Read/Grep/Glob bypass it
  • Pointers to Quick Start, the Supported AI Tools table, and INSTALL.md for other agents and deeper detail

Docs-only change; no code touched.

Add a step-by-step Claude Code Setup section under Installation covering
hook install (rtk init -g), restart, and verification, plus common init
variants and the Bash-only hook scope note. Claude Code is RTK's flagship
integration but previously only appeared inline in Quick Start.

Rework the Claude Code Setup section into numbered steps: global init
(showing the interactive 'Patch existing ~/.claude/settings.json? [y/N]'
prompt and the y answer), restart, and verify by asking Claude to run a
command plus checking 'rtk gain' for live savings.
