What problem does it solve?

Defensive Bash scripting is essential for production automation to prevent crashes, security flaws, and portability issues. This skill provides a proven foundation for writing safe, robust Bash scripts that are easy to audit and maintain.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Defensive patterns: strict mode, safe argument parsing, robust error handling, and safe file operations
  • Testing and linting: comprehensive tests with Bats and static analysis with ShellCheck and shfmt to maintain quality
  • Use Case: Harden a CI script that deploys a service to multiple Linux distros while rejecting unsafe inputs

Quick Start

  • Use the bash-pro skill to harden a Bash script by enabling strict mode, adding input validation, and wiring in tests with Bats and ShellCheck
