§ the full brief

the only code your boss wants to see: 0.

Four coasters. Four exit codes. The ones that show up in your scripts, your CI pipelines, and your nightmares.

The set
Coaster 1 — 0 · "It worked." $?, &&, set -e, CI green. The only code your boss wants to see.
Coaster 2 — 1 · "Something broke." Read stderr first. typo?, ||, 2>&1, --help. "catch-all — read the actual error."
Coaster 3 — 126 · "Not allowed." chmod, shebang, ls permissions, sibling code 127. Permission problems.
Coaster 4 — 130 · "You killed it." SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGKILL, signal math (128+N). "no graceful — OOM?"

…wondering what you did wrong, this coaster has your answer.
