Can you share the script you are thinking of putting in place? There could be something simple that is missing, such as you source a file that doesn't exist, or an error that is not handled in some way. A description of what you are trying to achieve would be useful to so we can understand why you feel the need to do this.
Hopefully we can then suggest ways to protect yourself.
