tl;dr: using shellcheck directives in automate shell scripts sgtm. shell does not lend itself to being written correctly. shellcheck has proven its worth to me multiple times over, especially because i can stop having to point out the same mistakes to people over & over that it easily finds. we've integrated into CrOS & internally at Google and people love it. at least, people still (rightly) hate shell, but not much to be done about that other than use a better language :P. -mike
