Bash Script Skill Template

Automate Bash scripts by using this template, which structures input-driven workflows with a main.sh entry point, ARG1/ARG2 parameters, environment configuration, and strict error handling via set -euo pipefail. The template provides standardized logging, exit codes, and colored output for reliable CLI automation.

Bash scripts for CI/CD require set -euo pipefail for strict error handling, explicit exit codes, configurable environment loading, and structured logging with colored output. This template enforces those patterns to ensure reliable automation and clear failure reporting across CLI scenarios.

Yes. This reusable template reduces context footprint and enables rapid creation of multiple Bash-script Skills by following a consistent pattern. Define your scripts under scripts/bash/, configure ARG1/ARG2, set environment variables, and the modular structure handles logging and error handling automatically.

A minimal Bash Skill needs a concise SKILL.md referencing your script, a main.sh entry point accepting ARG1/ARG2, environment configuration, error handling with set -euo pipefail, and structured logging. This template provides that structure so you only fill in your automation logic.

Validate inputs through ARG1/ARG2 parameters defined in the template, use exit codes to signal success or failure, and rely on the template's structured logging with colored output for consistent status reporting. Environment configuration enables input-driven workflows across CLI automation scenarios.

A template keeps your context footprint small, enforces best practices like strict error handling and explicit exit codes, and provides a modular structure for standardized input processing and logging. This accelerates Skill creation and ensures consistency across CLI automation workflows.
