Research direction

No implementation file or test is named. Start by locating the template setup and plan-generation entry points, then inspect how generated scripts expose their shebang. Done means Bash templates are identified and checked with bash -n before the plan is set up; the issue also mentions ShellCheck as a possible validator.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Bash scripts can be validated using:

  • bash -n <file>
  • ShellCheck

IDEA:

  • Identify whether a script is a Bash script or not by inspecting the shebang. Then run it through bash -n <file> to validate it syntactically.
  • Validate template already when setting up the plan.
