Description

The problem is rtk pytest with no args — that returned "No tests collected" while rtk pytest tests/test_cli_dispatch.py -v worked. There's an rtk bug in how it handles the no-args pytest invocation, probably in its cwd handling or in how it discovers tests when the path isn't explicit.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the no args pytest invocation path in rtk's test discovery logic, specifically around current working directory handling.
