Charitably: AI turbocharged dunning-kruger
Less charitable: Malware delivery.
There is no good reason why they couldn’t have a normal source tree, that they pack into a single shell script in CI.

Sorry, but a photo of a directory structure is not a source tree.
Your git repo consists of 4 files, a readme, a licence, and two packed shell scripts.
If you have an actual published source repo, link people to it.

So just a expanded file structure directory is what you want? The script executable expands to each individual piece once run.
What do you mean a actual published source repo? I do not understand how its not that. Everything is packaged into one script.

Yes. Separate out each part out. You are currently publishing the equivalent of of a compiled binary. If you split it up, and use a script to “compile” it back into the mega shell script.
It means that changes to each file can tracked (and audited) individually, you can conditionally compile bits in or out, and most usefully, you can write tests for the individual components.
