"Emulating " unix commands

hi people
i want to work on a project that would "emulate" unix commands like ls,rm etc... by making use of uunix system calls .

by writing programs in c++ using system calls ,these programs would work exactly the same way as the unix commands would work.

but will the unix shell accept these commanands(which are defined by me) ?
where should i put all these commands ?which directory?
or will i have to write a new shell alltogether??
