As a haskeller, and shell scripter, I find this a refreshing and exciting experiment. Much of the goodness of haskell, but with a much tighter focus and smaller scope. No imports, language pragmas, packages or build tools needed; all of the building blocks listed on one short page, https://chrisdone.github.io/hell/api https://chrisdone.github.io/hell/api. More platform independent, robust, and regular than shell. Potentially a nice learning language / stepping stone to haskell itself. It's quite verbose right now, and I don't see much networking API yet, but it's just starting. I could see it easily growing into something very nice.
