Stance: do not reinvent Nushell
Explicit non-goal
OpenShellOrg will not invent a competing structured shell. Nushell already exists as a strong Unix-centric implementation of the model we want to promote.
What we will do instead
-
Advocate Nushell for structured pipelines in docs and standards notes.
-
Contribute upstream when fixes or features help the ecosystem (optional, case-by-case).
-
Build companion libraries — e.g. nu-require — that make Nushell-tailored apps clearer and safer without replacing the shell.
