In undergrad, I wrote a Gulp plugin (a Node build tool) to run shell scripts. The added value was the ability to connect the script's stdin/stdout into the Gulp pipeline. I wrote it in a weekend, just as a one-off while I was learning Node and procrastinating my other studies. Today, it gets just under 30k weekly downloads. Which isn't a ton, but it shows that it's still being used. After I got a real job, I found it in an internal third-party repo. Apparently some contractors built a site with it years ago.
