Description

Feature Request: Add uv run support

Problem

uv run is heavily used in Python projects (667 times/30 days in my workflow) but RTK doesn't filter it.

Current Behavior

uv run --project backend --extra dev python script.py
# Full Python stdout/stderr output

Proposed Behavior

# Should filter similar to 'npm run':
rtk uv run --project backend --extra dev python script.py
# - Show only errors (stderr)
# - Suppress verbose logs
# - Truncate stack traces

Examples to Filter

uv run python script.py
uv run pytest
uv run ruff check
uv run --project backend alembic upgrade head

Impact

Estimated savings: 133K-333K tokens/30 days

Reference

Similar to existing rtk npm run implementation

Environment

  • RTK version: (installed via npm)
  • Python version: 3.11+
  • Use case: FastAPI + Next.js project with uv package manager

Research direction
Review the existing `rtk npm run` implementation to understand the pattern for filtering command outputs. Locate the relevant source files (likely in src/filters.rs) and add a new module or case for `uv run`. Implement parsing of `uv run` arguments and apply similar truncation of stdout/stderr, suppressing verbose logs and truncating stack traces. Refer to the examples in the issue for test cases and ensure handling of variations like `uv run project backend`.
