There are a lot of projects, both commercial and OSS, which have a Makefile for linting, version releases, etc, — and never use its dependency graph feature; or, their usage is so superficial that implementing it, say,

- via direct function calls in Python code,

- or using Typer callback functions

…is easy.

There are potential approaches worth exploring (annotations, decorators, …). I might come up with a list of options with syntax examples and ask for community's thoughts about it, — but at this point jeeves, as an MVP, is already useful for me and a few people I work with, and that motivated me to share it with the community.
