echo "secret-value" | shebang put-secret API_KEY -s

# Delete secret
shebang delete-secret AWS_KEY

Variable Substitution

Scripts support automatic variable substitution:

Secrets:

# In your script:
API_KEY=${SECRET:AWS_API_KEY}
curl -H "Authorization: $API_KEY" https://api.example.com

# Run with substitution (automatic):
shebang run myscript

Files:

# In your script:
CONFIG=${FILE:"/configs/app.conf"}
DATA=${FILE:"/data/input.csv"}

echo "Using config: $CONFIG"
python process.py "$DATA"

# Run with substitution (automatic):
shebang run myscript
# Downloads files to temp locations, replaces with paths
# Cleans up temp files after execution

# Also works with shared files:
SHARED=${FILE:"/Shared With Me/alice/data/report.pdf"}

Script Sharing

# List who has access
shebang list-shares myscript

# Share with specific users
shebang share myscript -u alice -u bob

# Enable "anyone with link" sharing
shebang share myscript -l

# Remove user access
shebang share myscript -u alice -r

# Remove link sharing
shebang share myscript -l -r

# List scripts (includes shared by default)
shebang list

# Hide shared scripts
shebang list -i

Secret Substitution

# Get script with secrets substituted
shebang get myscript -s

# Run script (secrets always substituted)
shebang run myscript

AI Script Generation (Ultimate Tier)

# Generate a script
shebang infer "script that rotates an image 90 degrees" image.jpg

# Execute immediately
shebang infer -e "backup database to S3" /data/db

# Save to file
shebang infer -O rotate.sh "rotate image 90 degrees"

# Save to shebang account
shebang infer -s -n rotate-image -v public "rotate image 90 degrees"

# Choose AI provider (bedrock, claude, openai)
shebang infer -p bedrock "create backup script"

CLI Options

Visibility:

  • priv - Private (encrypted, requires key)
  • unlist - Unlisted (accessible via URL only, supports ACL sharing)
  • public - Public (listed in community)

Configuration: Stored in ~/.shebangrc:

SHEBANG_URL="https://shebang.run"
SHEBANG_USERNAME="myuser"
SHEBANG_CLIENT_ID="..."
SHEBANG_CLIENT_SECRET="..."
SHEBANG_KEY_PATH="/path/to/key.pem"

Python Library

Google Colab Usage

import shebangrun as shebang
from google.colab import userdata

# Initialize from Colab secrets
shebangrc = userdata.get('shebangrc')
key = userdata.get('colabpem')
shebang.init(shebangrc)

# Run script with variables
results = shebang.run(
    script="pythontest",
    key=key,
    eval=True,
    accept=True,
    vars={"C": 5}
)

# Access variables from script
print(results['A'])  # Variables defined in script

Simple Script Fetching

from shebangrun import run

# Fetch a script (returns content as string)
content = run(username="mpruitt", script="bashtest")
print(content)

Execute Python Scripts

from shebangrun import run

# Fetch and execute with confirmation prompt
run(username="mpruitt", script="myscript", eval=True)

# Execute without confirmation (use with caution!)
run(username="mpruitt", script="myscript", eval=True, accept=True)

Working with Versions

from shebangrun import run

# Get latest version
content = run(username="mpruitt", script="deploy", version="latest")

# Get specific version
content = run(username="mpruitt", script="deploy", version="v5")

# Get tagged version
content = run(username="mpruitt", script="deploy", version="dev")

Private Scripts

from shebangrun import run

# Access private script with share token
content = run(
    username="mpruitt", 
    script="private-script",
    token="your-share-token-here"
)

Full API Client

For more advanced usage, use the ShebangClient class:

from shebangrun import ShebangClient

# Initialize client
client = ShebangClient(url="shebang.run")

# Login
client.login(username="myuser", password="mypassword")

# Create a script
client.create_script(
    name="hello",
    content="#!/bin/bash\necho 'Hello World'",
    description="My first script",
    visibility="public"
)

# File Management
# Upload file
file = client.upload_file('document.pdf', folder_id=5, visibility='private')
print(f"Uploaded: {file['id']}")

# List files
files = client.list_files(folder_id=5)
for f in files:
    print(f"{f['original_filename']} - {f['size']} bytes")

# Download file
client.download_file(file_id=123, output_path='downloaded.pdf')

# File versioning (Ultimate tier)
versions = client.list_file_versions(file_id=123)
client.restore_file_version(file_id=123, version=2)

# Share file
client.share_file(file_id=123, usernames=['alice', 'bob'])
client.share_file(file_id=123, link=True)  # Anyone with link

# Folder Management
# Create folder
folder = client.create_folder('my-folder', parent_id=None)

# List folders
folders = client.list_folders(parent_id=None)

# Get folder contents
contents = client.get_folder_contents(folder_id=5)
print(f"Folders: {len(contents['folders'])}")
print(f"Files: {len(contents['files'])}")

# Share folder (shares all contents recursively)
client.share_folder(folder_id=5, usernames=['alice'])

# List shared items
shared_files = client.list_shared_files()
shared_folders = client.list_shared_folders()
shared_all = client.get_shared_with_me()  # Grouped by owner

# Storage usage
storage = client.get_file_storage()
print(f"Used: {storage['used']} / {storage['limit']} bytes")

    description="My first script",
    visibility="public"
)

# List your scripts
scripts = client.list_scripts()
for script in scripts:
    print(f"{script['name']} - v{script['version']}")

# Update a script (creates new version)
client.update_script(
    script_id=1,
    content="#!/bin/bash\necho 'Hello World v2'",
    tag="dev"
)

# Generate share token for private script
token = client.generate_share_token(script_id=1)
print(f"Share URL: https://shebang.run/myuser/myscript?token={token}")

# Get script metadata
meta = client.get_metadata(username="mpruitt", script="bashtest")

# Secrets management
client.create_secret("AWS_KEY", "AKIA...")
secrets = client.list_secrets()
value = client.get_secret("AWS_KEY")
audit = client.get_secret_audit("AWS_KEY")
client.delete_secret("AWS_KEY")

# Script sharing
client.add_script_access(script_id=1, usernames=["alice", "bob"])
access_list = client.list_script_access(script_id=1)
client.remove_script_access(script_id=1, access_id=5)
shared = client.list_shared_scripts()

# AI script generation (Ultimate tier)
result = client.generate_script("script that backs up database", args=["db_path"])
print(result['script'])  # Generated script
print(result['tokens'])  # Token usage

usage = client.get_ai_usage()
print(f"Used {usage['used']} of {usage['limit']} AI generations this month")

print(f"Version: {meta['version']}, Size: {meta['size']} bytes")

# Verify signature
verification = client.verify_signature(username="mpruitt", script="bashtest")
print(f"Signed: {verification['signed']}")

Key Management

from shebangrun import ShebangClient

client = ShebangClient(url="shebang.run")
client.login(username="myuser", password="mypassword")

# Generate a new keypair
key = client.generate_key(name="my-signing-key")
print(f"Public Key: {key['public_key']}")
print(f"Private Key: {key['private_key']}")  # Save this securely!

# List keys
keys = client.list_keys()
for key in keys:
    print(f"{key['name']} - Created: {key['created_at']}")

# Import existing public key
client.import_key(
    name="imported-key",
    public_key="-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----\n..."
)

# Delete a key
client.delete_key(key_id=1)

client.login(username="myuser", password="mypassword")

# Change password
client.change_password(
    current_password="oldpass",
    new_password="newpass"
)

# Export all data (GDPR)
data = client.export_data()
print(f"Exported {len(data['scripts'])} scripts")

# Delete account (permanent!)
client.delete_account()

Security Notes

⚠️ Warning: Using eval=True with accept=True will execute remote code without confirmation. Only use this with scripts you trust completely.

Best Practices:

  • Always review scripts before executing with eval=True
  • Use accept=False (default) to see the script before execution
  • Store private keys securely, never commit them to version control
  • Use environment variables for tokens and credentials
  • Verify script signatures when available

Examples

Automation Script

#!/usr/bin/env python3
from shebangrun import run

# Fetch deployment script and execute with confirmation
run(
    username="devops",
    script="deploy-prod",
    version="latest",
    eval=True,
    accept=False  # Always confirm production deployments!
)

CI/CD Integration

import os
from shebangrun import ShebangClient

client = ShebangClient()
client.login(
    username=os.environ["SHEBANG_USER"],
    password=os.environ["SHEBANG_PASS"]
)

# Update deployment script
client.update_script(
    script_id=int(os.environ["DEPLOY_SCRIPT_ID"]),
    content=open("deploy.sh").read(),
    tag="latest"
)

print("Deployment script updated!")
