developing-simple-bash-scripts
developing-simple-bash-scripts skill
This skill defines guidelines for writing simple Bash scripts: ad-hoc tasks, short wrappers, linear logic, or internal-use scripts that do not need full CLI scaffolding.
Prioritise correctness and brevity. Do NOT pad simple scripts with template boilerplate.
If a script grows beyond ~50 lines, needs 3+ flags, or involves complex control flow, switch to the developing-complex-bash-scripts skill instead.
When to Use This Skill
- Ad-hoc or one-off automation tasks
- Simple wrappers around existing commands
- Linear logic with no or minimal branching
- Scripts expected to stay under ~50 lines
- No need for
--help, structured logging, or multiple named flags
