shell-platform

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers write and execute shell commands that work reliably across Windows PowerShell and Unix-like shells by providing platform-aware command syntax guidance and safe activation prompts.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Platform-aware adjustments for common shell constructs (quoting, heredoc, command chaining) across Windows PowerShell and Unix shells.
• Clear guidance on when to enable PowerShell-compatible syntax and how to activate it per machine or session.
• Use cases include cross-platform scripting, multi-environment CI tasks, and avoiding runtime shell errors due to shell differences.

Quick Start

When prompted on Windows, enable PowerShell-compatible syntax for shell commands and try a simple cross-platform command such as: git commit -m "Title" -m "Body" to create a multi-line commit message.
