I have found Sonnet and Opus to both be very capable in bash, but then, I don’t usually ask bash to do super-complex things - its syntax is just too screwy to think about big applications in it.
I will say, you might be misguiding the LLM by filling it full of bad examples before starting. Kind of like the advice about not staring at a tree downslope while skiing, if you’re fixated on it you’re MORE likely to hit it.
WTF are you expecting Claude to code in bash?
