Windows Git Bash / WSL Execution

This skill helps ensure that commands are executed within a Bash-compatible environment (Git Bash or WSL) on Windows systems, avoiding common issues associated with PowerShell or Command Prompt.

How It Works

1. Environment Verification: The agent can run check-env.sh to confirm it is operating within Git Bash or WSL.
2. Command Execution: Once verified, the agent should continue to use the current shell for all subsequent commands, leveraging standard Linux/Unix tools available in Git Bash/WSL.

Usage

bash /mnt/skills/user/windows-git-bash/scripts/check-env.sh

Output

The script outputs the detected environment type.

Example Output (Git Bash):

{
  "environment": "git-bash",
  "os_type": "msys",
  "message": "Running in Git Bash / MSYS."
}

Example Output (WSL):

{
  "environment": "wsl",
  "os_type": "linux-gnu",
  "message": "Running in WSL."
}

Troubleshooting

• If the script fails to run, ensure bash is in the PATH.
• If the output indicates "unknown" or "powershell" (unlikely if running via bash), you may need to explicitly launch Git Bash or WSL.
