The require should be: (ns bkell (:require commands)) and then you'll reference the functions as (commands/add ...) (commands/remove ...) etc. I'm not sure why (:require commands.remove) doesn't give you an error... perhaps it was pulling in commands/remove.clj anyway? Is there any reason why you have the commands split across multiple files? (I'm not saying it's bad, just curious) I suspect you're somehow calling remove recursively (but it's hard to tell without seeing more of your code).
