Having a quick read now. To provide some further reading on **options, that's a use of splatting.

TL;DR it can be used as a continent way to forward an arbitrary set of keyword arguments around. It was used a lot in the previous Ruby drivers, but would recommend avoiding it unless absolutely needed here as it can lead to some sloppy type signatures.

Hi @kimburgess , upon going through this comment I thought it'd be a good idea to implement Hash instead of splat. However, this is not allowed since splatting in drivers is mostly used in

queue(**({
      name: command,
    }.merge(options))) do
...
end

and queue's method is defined in placeos-driver/src/placeos-driver.cr as follows (line 114-117)

  # Queuing
  def queue(**opts, &block : Task -> Nil)
    @__queue__.add(**opts, &block)
  end

which disallows anything but splats and NamedTuple in the argument.
