Shell Scripting
Software development skill, available on Zeplik
Shell Scripting is a ready-to-run software development skill on Zeplik. Production shell scripting and terminal automation — defensive Bash for CI/CD, Linux terminal patterns, and PowerShell on Windows. Ask in plain language and Zeplik applies the skill's method for you inside the conversation, on whichever AI model you prefer.
The Shell Scripting skill loads automatically when your request matches it, or you can invoke it directly by typing /shell-scripting in any chat. It works with attachments, connectors, and any model that supports the task, so you get the same expert method every time without setting anything up.
What the Shell Scripting skill can do
- Write defensive Bash scripts hardened for production and CI/CD use
- Diagnose and fix Linux terminal automation and shell patterns
- Build PowerShell scripts for Windows automation tasks
- Deliver runnable scripts with rationale matching existing code conventions

How the Shell Scripting skill works
/shell-scripting
Umbrella for shell scripting. The user wants a script or terminal automation; establish the shell (Bash vs PowerShell) and environment, then deliver a defensive, well-structured script with a rationale. For CI workflow definitions route to github-actions-templates.
Dispatch table
Pick the reference file(s) that match the request, read them, then answer. Read at most 2-3 files per turn.
| Topic | Read |
|---|---|
| Bash/Linux terminal patterns. | references/bash-linux.md |
| Master of defensive Bash scripting for production automation, CI/CD | references/bash-pro.md |
| This skill should be used when the user asks to "create bash scripts", "automate Linux… | references/linux-production-shell-scripts.md |
| PowerShell Windows patterns. | references/powershell-windows.md |
How to work
- Identify which leaf topic the request maps to from the dispatch table above; establish the concrete inputs (language, dataset, framework, file format) and the goal. Ask for a missing detail rather than guessing.
- Read the matching reference file(s) before answering. Read at most 2-3 per turn.
- Deliver runnable artifacts — code, configs, specs — with a short rationale, matching the user's existing conventions when they paste code.
- Confirm any decision the source flags (versions, thresholds, tradeoffs) with the user instead of guessing.
