var is referenced but not assigned.

Problematic code:

var=name
n=42
echo "$var_$n.jpg"   # overextended

or

target="world"
echo "hello $tagret"  # misspelled

or

echo "Result: ${mycmd -a myfile}"  # trying to execute commands

Correct code:

var=name
n=42
echo "${var}_$n.jpg"

or

target="world"
echo "hello $target"

or

echo "Result: $(mycmd -a myfile)"

Rationale:

ShellCheck has noticed that you reference a variable that is not assigned. Double check that the variable is indeed assigned, and that the name is not misspelled.

Note: This message only triggers for variables with lowercase characters in their name (foo and kFOO but not FOO) due to the standard convention of using lowercase variable names for unexported, local variables.

Exceptions:

ShellCheck does not attempt to figure out runtime or dynamic assignments like with source "$(date +%F).sh" or eval var=value.

If you know for a fact that the variable is set, you can use ${var:?} to fail if the variable is unset (or empty), or explicitly initialize/declare it with var="" or declare var. You can also disable the message with a [[directive]].
