All you need to do is set -e at the start of the script to stop on a non-0 exit code. And quote variables to prevent globbing.

Oh you sweet summer child.

If you don't use pipes or command substitutions, set -e gets you a fair part of the way there.

If you're interested, I can look up the rest of the arcane incantations necessary.

Here's a neat tidbit. Using curl without -f --fail will make non-2xx status codes return success, so set -e won't help there.

Yeah, and that's just one of many many things to consider.
