Add Custom commands

[cleder]

I'd like to add a custom command to alembic that produces a data migration.

Gemini and chatGPT hallucinate something about:

Create a custom Alembic command by subclassing Command from Alembic's commands module.

so this may have been possible with a previous version.

sure, it's CommandLine and it's right here: https://github.com/sqlalchemy/alembic/blob/main/alembic/config.py#L347 source code is straightforward

Sure, I can maintain a fork the question was more if it is possible with a plugin like system.

Not right now. I'm not sure if there could be something simple that we could support.
You could likely subclass CommandLine to add the new option and generate a script that uses the new class.

Your would not need to maintain a fork, but I think another command name other than alembic would be needed
