Show HN: GroqBash – Single‑File Bash Client for Groq API

[kamaludu]

I built GroqBash, a single‑file Bash client for the Groq API (OpenAI‑compatible). I wanted something fully auditable, with no dependencies, and that worked reliably on Termux, where /tmp isn’t writable. Everything lives inside a self‑created groqbash.d directory, and the core script avoids eval, avoids /tmp, and keeps permissions strict.

The project now includes optional extras: additional providers (including Gemini), extended documentation, small security tools, and a tiny test suite. The core stays minimal and portable; extras are opt‑in.

I’d love to get: - feedback on the design and Bash choices - visibility to see if others find this useful - testing on different environments (Linux distros, macOS, WSL, Termux)

Note: I’m not a native English speaker. I read English fairly well, but I usually rely on automatic translators (and sometimes GroqBash itself) when writing. Happy to clarify anything if needed.
