Customizing Target Clients (Version 1)

Edit the TARGET_CLIENTS array in the batch-installer.sh script to add your desired clients:

# Static list of target clients (excluding 'cursor')
TARGET_CLIENTS=("windsurf" "vscode" "roocode" "witsy")

Replace it with your preferred clients:

# Example of a different client list
TARGET_CLIENTS=("vscode" "intellij" "sublime" "atom")

🔧 Technical Details

How it Works (Version 1)

The script takes a full installation command for the "cursor" client as input.
First, it runs the original command to install on "cursor".
Then, it automatically iterates through a predefined list of clients, replacing "cursor" with each client name.
It confirms after each installation is completed.
