description: SSHRM project conventions
---

# Project conventions
- Use English throughout the project.
- Keep shell scripts Bash-based when Bash is already used by the project.
- Preserve the current behavior of the main scripts:
  - `sshrm`: remove an entry from `~/.ssh/known_hosts` by host name or by line number.
  - `git-release`: handle releases from `dev` to `main`, create an annotated tag, and push commits and tags.
- Keep user-facing messages short, clear, and in English.
- Prefer minimal, focused changes that do not alter the intent of the existing scripts.
- Maintain `.continue/rules/project.md` whenever project conventions or script behavior change.
- `sshrm` is implemented as a small Bash script with helper functions, while preserving host and line-number removal behavior.
- `sshrm` should print a short usage line, support `-h`/`--help`, and fail clearly on missing or invalid line-number input.
