The SyncShell service allows you to execute commands on the shell and block until they finish. It is not fool-proof--it has to use some tricks to accomplish this task, and some commands may foul it up. But for most tasks, it works admirably.

shell = session.shell.sync

p out.stderr
p out.status

The result of executing each command is an object that encapsulates the @stdout@ and @stderr@ streams, and the exit status of the command.
To explicitly execute a command, use the @#send_command@ instead of @#send_data@--otherwise, the command will be executed asynchronously, which is not what you want. Also, if you pass a second parameter to the @#send_command@ method, it is interpreted as the @stdin@ data to send to the new process.
