Scriptisto is a language-agnostic 'shebang interpreter' that lets you write one-file scripts in compiled languages like C, Rust, or Go. It extracts build instructions from script comments, rebuilds on change with caching, and delegates to the compiled binary with under 1 ms overhead.

Use cases

• write one-file scripts in compiled languages like C or Rust
• use compiled languages for unix scripting with a shebang
• run a .c or .rs file directly as an executable script
• build scripts in Docker without installing compilers on the host
• cache compiled scripts so repeated runs have minimal overhead
• replace bash scripts with typed compiled-language scripts

When to choose

• you want one-file scripts in compiled languages on Linux/macOS
• you need fast cached rebuilds with near-zero runtime overhead
• you want builds isolated in Docker without host toolchains

When to avoid

• you only write interpreted-language scripts (Python, Ruby, etc.)
• you need full build orchestration rather than single-file scripts
• you work primarily on Windows without a Unix-like environment
