Subject: Any ideas for syntax of a task specification?

Hello,
I currently use following syntax of a task (the task is: file to source):
... atinit"code to be run before running task" \
atload"code to be run after running task" \
load"condition to load task, e.g. [[ $PROMPT = yes ]]" \
unload"condition to unload task, e.g. [[ $PROMPT = no ]]"
wait"time to wait before loading task, # of seconds, alternative to
'load'"
Background & motivation is: 1-code-line with substitution is sufficient to
detect task that needs to be run. The substitution uses code execution,
calls math function.
It's task-management, elastic scheduler, in few lines of code, fast.
So I wonder: has anyone seen in e.g. daily job, in some other technology, a
syntax to specify complex things, tasks, that could be used? Or has some
idea? Zsh can serialize hashes, so ZSH_TASKS array (on which the
1-code-line substitution operates) can hold very rich task specification.
