Fix shellcheck violations in safe-inputs server startup script by Copilot · Pull Request #6086 · github/gh-aw

Copilot · 2025-12-11T02:44:25Z

Resolves 10 shellcheck violations in pkg/workflow/sh/start_safe_inputs_server.sh that propagate to compiled workflow lock files.

Changes

SC2086: Quote variables to prevent globbing/word splitting

Quoted $GH_AW_SAFE_INPUTS_PORT in curl URL and grep patterns
Quoted $i in test comparison [ "$i" -eq 10 ]
Quoted $GITHUB_OUTPUT in redirect operations

SC2129: Use compound redirection

# Before: Multiple appendsecho"line1">> file.log
echo"line2">> file.log
# After: Single compound redirect
{
echo"line1"echo"line2"
} > file.log

SC2009: Replace ps | grep with pgrep

# Before
ps aux | grep '[m]cp-server.cjs'# After
pgrep -f 'mcp-server.cjs'

Recompiled all workflows to propagate fixes to daily-performance-summary.lock.yml and test-python-safe-input.lock.yml.

This section details on the original issue you should resolve
<issue_title>[plan] Fix shellcheck issues in test workflows</issue_title>
<issue_description>## Objective
Resolve 10 shellcheck issues across daily-performance-summary and test-python-safe-input workflows.
Context
Severity: Error
Tool: actionlint (shellcheck integration)
Affected Workflows:
daily-performance-summary (5 issues)
test-python-safe-input (5 issues)
Issues Breakdown
SC2086: Double quote to prevent globbing (4 occurrences)
Variables need quoting to prevent word splitting and globbing issues.
SC2129: Use compound redirection (2 occurrences)
Use { cmd1; cmd2; } >> file instead of multiple >> redirects for efficiency.
SC2009: Use pgrep instead of grepping ps (2 occurrences)
Replace fragile ps | grep patterns with more robust pgrep command.
Approach
Locate the source markdown files for both workflows
Find shell script blocks with the reported issues
Apply shellcheck fixes:
Add double quotes around variables: $var → "$var"
Combine redirections: cmd1 >> file; cmd2 >> file → { cmd1; cmd2; } >> file
Replace ps patterns: ps aux | grep pattern → pgrep pattern
Recompile workflows with make recompile
Verify with actionlint
Files to Modify
Edit: .github/workflows/daily-performance-summary.md
Edit: .github/workflows/test-python-safe-input.md
Generated: Corresponding .lock.yml files (via recompile)
Example Fixes
SC2086 Fix:
# Beforeecho$variable# Afterecho"$variable"
SC2129 Fix:
# Beforeecho"line1">> file.txt
echo"line2">> file.txt
# After
{
echo"line1"echo"line2"
} >> file.txt
SC2009 Fix:
# Before
ps aux | grep myprocess
# After
pgrep myprocess
Acceptance Criteria
All 4 SC2086 issues fixed with proper quoting
All 2 SC2129 issues fixed with compound redirects
All 2 SC2009 issues fixed with pgrep
Both workflows recompiled with make recompile
Actionlint shows no shellcheck errors for these workflows
Workflows execute correctly with shell script changes
Why This Matters
Prevents word splitting bugs that could cause runtime failures
Improves shell script robustness and reliability
Follows bash best practices
Makes scripts more maintainable
