Just mentioned ASM / COB CWET for options really.
They're a a lot more involved than the Python client (when that's available).

curl is ok as a user, but when you want to productionize something, I would 
think the recommendation would be to use CWET.

I wouldn't. I would recommend using a sophisticated networking library like Java or whatever your favorite language is on the JVM.



Not saying curl is a bad tool, it is handy & does what it does.
Ease of use does not mean it's the solution of choice in many controlled 
environments.
By loved I mean does it get upgrades/improvements?

Who told you that? My employer offers a cURL port for z/OS and it's well maintained with support for production environment.


I don't know I'm just asking..

curl-ing a shell script directly is bit ... dangerous.

That's purely subjective. I don't see why cURL would be any more dangerous than writing a Python script or using CWET.

Lots of people are using Git for DevOps on z/OS and that uses cURL for ssh and https transport.


Not in this case as the script is available to inspect.
