In POSIX sh, coproc is undefined.
Problematic code:
#!/bin/sh
coproc nc shellcheck.net 80
Correct code:
Either switch to Bash:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
coproc nc shellcheck.net 80
or try to write your script in a POSIX compatible way using named pipes.
Rationale:
Your script uses a shell feature not supported by the shebang. Either rewrite the script to be portable, or change the shebang to explicitly require a shell like Bash.
There is no simple substitution for a coproc, though many use cases can be rewritten via redirection to named pipes (mkfifo).
Exceptions:
None
