Could you try source prase-fish.nu?

Code containing non-function can only be used source but not use, I think?

It may be a good idea to make quote a function like

def quote [] {
    '"' # "
}

source parse-fish.nu does not raise an error on my side. The error is there when using use.

I just tried quickly to replace let quote = '"' # " by const quote = '"' # " and then it worked
