Hey HN!I hate "curl|bash" installer instructions and often download and inspect the script manually before running it. I dislike that we've normalizing installing random software from random URLs and hoping for the best.This is a little something to help me in these cases: pasting the curl|bash oneliner will download and inspect it and tell you exactly what's happening under the hood.Here's an example for Homebrew: https://curl-bash-explain.dev/results/1c9db64f27d7487ecf74fe...It's rather slow at the moment (I opted for better vs faster analysis). Once GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark[0] gets into API, I might switch to that to make it faster (or Gemini Flash, or something else).This is hosted on exe.dev
