How does it improve script security?

It enforces strict variable quoting to prevent word-splitting bugs, uses mktemp for secure file creation, and implements exit traps to ensure sensitive temporary resources are always cleaned up.

Does this skill support POSIX sh scripts?

Yes, while the skill focuses on Bash-specific features like pipefail and arrays, it includes specific templates and guidance for maximum portability in POSIX sh environments.

How does it handle differences between macOS and Linux?

The skill provides portable wrapper functions for common utilities like sed, date, and stat, which have different flags and behaviors across BSD (macOS) and GNU (Linux) implementations.

Does this skill help with shell script testing?

Absolutely. It includes patterns and templates for implementing unit tests using bats-core, the industry standard for testing shell scripts.
