ZSH Scwrypts
Since they emulate direct user interaction, shell scripts are often the straightforward choice for task automation.
Basic Utilities
One of my biggest pet-peeves with scripting is when every line of a (insert-language-here) program is escaped to shell. This kind of program, which doesn't use language features, should be a shell script. While there are definitely unavoidable limitations to shell scripting, we can minimize a variety of problems with a modern shell and shared utilities library.

, the utils/
library provides:
- common function wrappers to unify flags and context
- lazy dependency and environment variable validation
- consistent (and pretty) user input / output
