Clamshell is a Bash-based workflow automation tool for running configurable tasks with support for parallel
execution, dependency management, and simple logging — all powered by a minimal .clamsh config
file.
Clamshell allows you to define tasks in a human-readable format and execute them with automatic handling of dependencies, execution order, and optional status checks. Ideal for build pipelines, deployment workflows, and batch operations.
Clamshell is tiny and dependancy-less - other than your shell!
Clamshell works seamlessly with whatever scripts and tools you already know
Structure your script workflows exactly how you want with logical operations you would expect
All you need is a .clamsh or .conf file, and Clamshell will do the rest
