PseudoKCL

const firstSketch = startSketchOn('XY')
  |> startProfileAt([-12, 12], %)
  |> line([24, 0], %)
  |> line([0, -24], %)
  |> line([-24, 0], %)
  |> close(%)
  |> extrude(6, %)

shell({
  faces: firstSketch.extrudeEnd(), // This is just my way of saying "grab the face at the end when firstSketch is extruded". Very certain there's something better.
  thickness: 0.25,
})

  |> line([-24, 0], tag: 'shellface2', %)
  |> close(%)
  |> extrude(6, %)

shell({
  faces: [firstSketch.extrudeEnd(), 'shellface1'.extrudeFace(), 'shellface2'.extrudeFace()], // Same as above, but with additions. The reason I'm putting .extrudeFace() at the end of the tags is because this differentiates grabbing the edge vs the face. If I just use the tag itself, I'm saying to use the edge itself.
  thickness: 0.25,
})
