Add portable batcat and bat aliases, ensure Bash login profiles source .bashrc on Linux and macOS, verify the installed alias, and cover the behavior with CI-backed integration tests.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Interactive cat output now uses enhanced formatting with bat or batcat, including line numbers, headers, and color.
    • Login shells on Linux and macOS now automatically load the Bash configuration.
    • Installation can be safely sourced without starting the installation process.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Preserved standard cat behavior for scripts and explicit command cat usage.
  • Documentation

    • Updated installation requirements and documented the enhanced cat behavior.
  • Tests

    • Added shell integration coverage for aliases, login profiles, and rendering behavior.

Walkthrough

The PR adds conditional batcat/bat rendering for interactive cat, configures Bash login profiles on Linux and macOS, verifies the alias during installation, supports library-only sourcing, and adds shell integration tests and CI coverage.

Changes

Bash shell integration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Interactive cat rendering and validation
.bashrc, README.md, .github/workflows/bashtest.yml, tests/test_shell_integration.sh
Interactive Bash sessions use batcat or bat with fixed paging and style options. Non-interactive shells and command cat bypass the alias. CI installs bat and runs the integration tests.
Login profile setup and installation wiring
setup.sh, README.md, tests/test_shell_integration.sh
The installer updates the active login profile, conditionally sources .bashrc for Bash, verifies the loaded alias, and skips installation when used as a library. Tests cover profile precedence, idempotency, shell compatibility, and alias verification.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 545d9

The PR changes shell startup and cat behavior; as written, a non-interactive Bash that sources .bashrc can receive the cat alias and change command behavior, while an interrupted or failed profile update can leave shell startup configuration incomplete. These are bounded risks that require explicit owner awareness or follow-up.
