Common patterns

Development workflows

• Running tests: pytest && coverage report
• Building projects: npm install && npm run build
• Git operations: git status && git add . && git commit -m "message"

For guidance on using git as a checkpoint-and-recovery mechanism in long-running agent workflows, see state management best practices.

File operations

• Processing data: wc -l *.csv && ls -lh *.csv
• Searching files: find . -name "*.py" | xargs grep "pattern"
• Creating backups: tar -czf backup.tar.gz ./data

System tasks

• Checking resources: df -h && free -m
• Process management: ps aux | grep python
• Environment setup: export PATH=$PATH:/new/path && echo $PATH
