# Description This PR implements an experimental inter-job communication model, through direct message passing, aka "mail"ing or "dm"ing: - `job send <id>`: Sends a message the job with the given id, the root job has id 0. Messages are stored in the recipient's "mailbox" - `job recv`: Returns a stored message, blocks if the mailbox is empty - `job flush`: Clear all messages from mailbox Additionally, messages can be sent with a numeric tag, which can then be filtered with `mail recv --tag`. This is useful for spawning jobs and receiving messages specifically from those jobs. This PR is mostly a proof of concept for how inter-job communication could look like, so people can provide feedback and suggestions Closes #15199 May close #15220 since now jobs can access their own id. # User-Facing Changes Adds, `job id`, `job send`, `job recv` and `job flush` commands. # Tests + Formatting [X] TODO: Implement tests [X] Consider rewriting some of the job-related tests to use this, to make them a bit less fragile. # After Submitting |

nu-protocol
The nu-protocol crate holds the definitions of structs/traits that are used throughout Nushell. This gives us one way to expose them to many other crates, as well as make these definitions available to each other, without causing mutually recursive dependencies.
