Do we have some shell tools like makefile that supports nested subcommands?

For example, I just need to edit the config file like the following:

clean:
  rpc:
    rm -rf ./rpc
  api
    rm -rf ./api

run:

> make clean rpc

However, make don't support nested subcommands.

A good choice is https://github.com/spf13/cobra, which supports subcommands and command alias... But it is used in golang, not shell.

I wonder do we havecobra in shell?

    I found 1,
    This is the link: https://taskfile.dev/#/

    Below is the example:

    Taskfile.yml

    version: "3"

tasks:
  clean:rpc:
    desc: Clean RPC
    cmds:
      - rm -rf ./rpc

  clean:api:
    desc: Clean API
    cmds:
      - rm -rf ./api

    To view available commands: task --list
    To exec command: task clean:api or task clean:rpc
