Overview
What It Does
Bash packages a focused media & files workflow for an AI agent. Writes, debugs, and hardens Bash shell scripts — quoting, arrays, strict mode, traps, argument parsing, and macOS/Linux portability. Use when writing or reviewing any script, one-liner, cron job, deploy script, container entrypoint, or CI step; when a script breaks on spaces in filenames, exits silently, ignores set -e, hangs, or returns the wrong exit code; when quoting, IFS, globs, arrays, heredocs, process substitution, trap, getopts, or mapfile misbehave; when shellcheck flags SC2086 and friends; when unbound variable, bad substitution, command not found, ambiguous redirect, or unexpected end of file show up; when a script works by hand but fails under cron, systemd, sudo, or a CI runner; or when porting between macOS bash 3.2, GNU/Linux, WSL, and POSIX sh. Not for interactive zsh or fish configuration, not for PowerShell, and not for host-level cron, systemd, or permission failures (linux). It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
