Script Template

Unified script template covering both Bash and Python runtimes.

Usage Context

Phase	Usage
Optional	Use when declaring ## Scripts in Phase/Action
Execution	Invoke via ExecuteScript('script-id', params)
Output Location	.claude/skills/{skill-name}/scripts/{script-id}.{ext}

---

Invocation Interface Specification

All scripts share the same calling convention:

Caller
    | ExecuteScript('script-id', { key: value })
    |
Script Entry
    ├─ Parameter parsing (--key value)
    ├─ Input validation (required parameter checks, file exists)
    ├─ Core processing (data read -> transform -> write)
    └─ Output result (last line: single-line JSON -> stdout)
         ├─ Success: {"status":"success", "output_file":"...", ...}
         └─ Failure: stderr output error message, exit 1

Return Format

interface ScriptResult {
  success: boolean;    // exit code === 0
  stdout: string;      // Standard output
  stderr: string;      // Standard error
  outputs: object;     // JSON output parsed from stdout last line
}

Parameter Convention

Parameter	Required	Description
--input-path	Yes	Input file path
--output-dir	Yes	Output directory (specified by caller)
Others	Optional	Script-specific parameters

OUTPUT_FILE="$OUTPUT_DIR/result.txt"
ITEMS_COUNT=0

# TODO: Implement processing logic
while IFS= read -r line; do
    echo "$line" >> "$OUTPUT_FILE"
    ((ITEMS_COUNT++))
done < "$INPUT_PATH"

# ============================================================
# Output JSON Result (use jq to build, avoid escaping issues)
# ============================================================

jq -n \
    --arg output_file "$OUTPUT_FILE" \
    --argjson items_processed "$ITEMS_COUNT" \
    '{output_file: $output_file, items_processed: $items_processed, status: "success"}'

Bash Common Patterns

# File iteration
for file in "$INPUT_DIR"/*.json; do
    [[ -f "$file" ]] || continue
    # Processing logic...
done

# Temp file (auto cleanup)
TEMP_FILE=$(mktemp)
trap "rm -f $TEMP_FILE" EXIT

# Tool dependency check
require_command() {
    command -v "$1" &> /dev/null || { echo "Error: $1 required" >&2; exit 1; }
}
require_command jq

# jq processing
VALUE=$(jq -r '.field' "$INPUT_PATH")                    # Read field
jq '.field = "new"' input.json > output.json             # Modify field
jq -s 'add' file1.json file2.json > merged.json          # Merge files

Python Common Patterns

# File iteration
def process_files(input_dir: Path, pattern: str = '*.json') -> list:
    return [
        {'file': str(f), 'data': json.load(f.open())}
        for f in input_dir.glob(pattern)
    ]

# Data transformation
def transform(data: dict) -> dict:
    return {
        'id': data.get('id'),
        'name': data.get('name', '').strip(),
        'timestamp': datetime.now().isoformat()
    }

# External command invocation
import subprocess

def run_command(cmd: list) -> str:
    result = subprocess.run(cmd, capture_output=True, text=True)
    if result.returncode != 0:
        raise RuntimeError(result.stderr)
    return result.stdout

Runtime Selection Guide

Task Characteristics
    |
    ├─ File processing / system commands / pipeline operations
    │   └─ Choose Bash (.sh)
    │
    ├─ JSON data processing / complex transformation / data analysis
    │   └─ Choose Python (.py)
    │
    └─ Simple read/write / format conversion
        └─ Either (Bash is lighter)
