# 19 — Nested commands in interactive mode trigger prompt2
**Status:** done
Running nested commands in an interactive command drops into prompt2 when it shouldn't:
```
~/Code/20251000_lush> !echo ${`ls`.stdout}
>>
```
The parser sees the opening `{` and thinks the expression is incomplete, waiting for more input. The nested backtick command should be parsed and evaluated inline.
