Description

Currently hooks don’t work on Windows and that’s the biggest feature otherwise LLMs keeps forgetting to use rtk

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how hooks are implemented on Unix and identify Windows specific differences. Look for platform specific code patterns (e.g., conditional compilation with cfg). Review existing Windows related issues or PRs for context. Consider using std::process::Command for Windows compatibility.
