I've only used Grunt briefly so I could be completely wrong, but I was under the impression you still need to create a node module for your task if it doesn't exist? You need to package it up somehow, link it in the gruntfile and so on.

In my use case, I was using a CLI utility called xcf2png. Writing a wrapper module seems like loads more work than a bash one-liner that calls xcf2png, no?



grunt-shell let's you call out to the shell. Very easy to set up
