fix-line-endings-check-bash

Fix line endings by converting CRLF (Windows format) to LF (Unix format) using dos2unix or sed. This Skill automates that conversion and validates syntax in a single step, ensuring scripts run correctly on Linux systems without line-ending errors.

Yes, syntax checking validates bash scripts using bash -n without executing them. This Skill combines syntax validation with line-ending normalization, catching errors early and confirming the script is syntactically sound before deployment.

Prepare scripts by normalizing line endings to LF and validating syntax. This Skill performs both steps automatically, eliminating Windows line-ending issues and syntax errors in one pass, making scripts ready for immediate use on Linux servers.

Yes, line endings matter significantly. Windows line endings (CRLF) can cause "command not found" errors and unexpected behavior in bash scripts on Unix systems. Converting to LF ensures consistent execution across platforms.

This Skill handles multiple files in a single invocation, reporting results per file and exiting with success or failure status. Pass multiple script filenames to fix line endings and validate syntax across all files simultaneously.

The Skill stops at the first syntax error and reports it, exiting with status 1. This fail-fast behavior prevents deploying broken scripts and helps you identify and fix issues before they cause problems in production.
