This has been my solution as well. There’s little that feels as good as running `make -B report` and watching the whole thing be rebuilt from scratch.

How do you manage encapsulating each step, and passing data between them?

I don't do it well. See

https://github.com/4kbt/ReplicableAnalysis

and

https://github.com/4kbt/PlateWash

as examples. The former is smaller/less complicated. The latter was my thesis work -- more complicated and (unfortunately) abuses recursive calls to Make.

Would that be easier with rake than with make?
