Anyone who works with Rails has heard of and used the runner command (https://guides.rubyonrails.org/command_line.html#bin-rails-runner) with a single-line code argument that executes in the application context.
While working on my application the other day, I needed to list all tables with their row counts.
The code for listing the number of table rows on a single line looks rather ugly and unmaintainable.

If a public foss repo offers a foss setup.sh command line script which, step by step, performs the installation / usage steps the repo readme lists for use at the command line to set up/use the code, what trust measures would you insist upon before downloading and before running the setup.sh script at your local command line? Is there a better way of offering an helpful automated but trustworthy #Heredoc than a scary .sh ?
