Why so non intuitive api ?

[s-y]

chain = procs.chain()
uptime = chain.process('uptime')
cowsay = chain.process('cowsay')
chain.link(uptime.stdout, cowsay.stdin)
chain.start(wait=True)
chain.wait()

=>

from  procs import chain, process
chain = chain()
chain.link(procces("uptime") > procces("cowsay"))
chain.start(wait=True)

or if I want use only one chain (most cases)

from  procs import chain, process
chain.link(procces("uptime") > procces("cowsay"))
chain.start(wait=True)

Please understand I mean this in the best possible way: What exactly are you trying to say? Maybe I'm stupid but I can't figure out the meaning of your description.

Your issue seems to have nothing with the API or it being (un)intuitive. It seems your issue is just about making the examples better by making them shorter. But your versions go against some commonly accepted idiomatic conventions. That is why they're written as they are. Of course you're always free to skip convention in your own work as you see fit.
