I don't see why you have the curly brackets/braces in the loop. Can you explain? You are sending a single file each time. Is this intended? I'd be happy with that, but you complicate it with the wildcard rm *.ready

No I want to send multiple files if possible. as for the curly braces, I thought they would help my problem. No real reason other than that.

I ran the script with a -x below is the output.
It looks like it's running fine until it finds the first file, it echo's the file, writes it to the batch file, then echoes the quit to the batch file, I want to traverse, echo every single file into the batch file first, then echo the quit, then let the batch file sftp.
My logic is clearly wrong, some proper directive would be appreciated!
Thanks! I hope this is better information to help with. Also I see the permission denied error, but I assume that batch needs ssh keys shared and not a password, in the production env, the keys are already shared and that wont be an issue

I think I need gidance on how to properly loop the traversing of files being put into the batch file before echoing quit

It looks like the logic could do what you are after. What do you get if you just run the following on the command line?:-
It might just be that the authentication is missing or incomplete.
If you get a prompt asking if you want to accept a fingerprint, then accepting it will store the fingerprint (effectively the remote server public key) in the know_hosts file so it will not prompt again. That has been a problem I've seen before sorted by a manual test first.
I would like to bring to your attention the following combination of commands in red, which has the potential of spread disaster.
The command cd will silently change directory to your $HOME if it can not use $READDIR to change. Once's in there I don't know the mayhem that it would do, but for sure you can kiss goodbye to your data in $HOME.
Some ways to minimize the risk is to use absolute paths and if you cd check $PWD or pwd, and compare with where you should be.
The rm * bothers me as well. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I just want to delete the files after I have copied them to a back up directory and SFTP'd them over
