Remove Shell Comments

Shell scripts use # for comments. This tool strips them all while preserving the shebang line (#!/bin/bash) at the top of the file and any # inside quotes.

Why remove shell comments?

Cleaner scripts — remove internal notes before sharing.
Smaller files — useful for embedded or containerized scripts.
Privacy — no leftover credentials or TODOs.
