cypress.io: Command namespacing, chaining

I have read docs here, and this is close to what I need, but not quite. I am looking to create a simple namespacing like:

cy.entity.create(name)

cy.entity.edit(id, data)

cy.entity.delete(id)

so that my UI tests had a direct API call fallback where needed. Is it possible to write commands in namespaced format like this?

cy is a Javascript object, so if your goal is simply to store functions in cy.entity, this will work:

cy.entity = {};
cy.entity.edit = (id, data) => {
    cy.log(`cy.entity.edit(${id}, ${data}) has been called`);
    // ...
}

// Then you can call cy.entity.edit() like this:
cy.entity.edit("test", "test");
