Topic on Talk:Requests for comment/Proper command-line runner for maintenance tasks

Why not a general architecture to run command line tools, of which the maintenance tool is just a more specific set/scope with maybe it's own registry ?

Basically https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/artisan

which also allows you to document the command and its arguments and even to call command line programs programmatically, to run them using a scheduler or to queue the command itself as job.

Ive been enjoying using that a lot.

I see you posted the same thing at T99268#4576693. It might be better to keep discussion all in one place.
