A new guix command? Right. Basically I was suggesting implementing the pipeline as a Scheme procedure (‘foo-pipeline’ above), and adding a command-line interface on top of it (‘guix biopipeline’.) This means that all inputs and outputs would go through the store, so you would get caching and all that for free. But I now understand that I was slightly off-topic. ;-) Ludo’.
