predeployment checks

AI can act as a context-aware reviewer for Bash, catching quoting, word splitting, portability, and safety pitfalls that linters miss. The article pairs strict modes, ShellCheck/shfmt, and Bats tests with local or hosted AI (e.g., Ollama) and shows a reproducible workflow, pre-commit setup, install commands (apt/dnf/zypper), CI integration, and pro tips to request minimal patches and safer patterns.
