in addition to this new interface, i want to change how commands are tracked. the script + yaml file is very cumbersome and confusing and has the bad race condition of the two files not being written at the same time. it means i hate adding commands.
|

|
- sqlite3. a little overkill.
|
||
|
- json file. a little underkill.
