AGE-API-QUERY(1)

NAME
age-api-query - Age bracket query tool

SYNOPSIS
age-api-query

DESCRIPTION
Reads the locally stored age bracket and prints:

•   a machine-readable age bracket number to standard output (stdout)

•   a human-readable age bracket description to standard error (stderr)

This separation allows scripting with stdout while still providing a helpful explanation for interactive use.

The age bracket is expected to be stored as an integer in the file ~/.age-api/age-bracket.

Bracket mapping:

•   1: Under 13

•   2: 13 to under 16

•   3: 16 to under 18

•   4: 18 or older

OPTIONS
None.

CONFIG FILE

•   /etc/age-api.d/*.conf

•   /usr/local/etc/age-api.d/*.conf

FILES

•   ~/.age-api/age-bracket

EXIT CODES
0 Success.

1 Internal error or invalid bracket value (expected 1-4).

EXAMPLES
Machine-readable usage (recommended for scripts):

age-api-query

Suppress human-readable output:

age-api-query 2>/dev/null

Use the numeric bracket in a shell script:

age_bracket="$(age-api-query 2>/dev/null)"
