I'm currently prototyping a system of multiple interconnected string
filters and am wondering what the best practices are regarding the
Common Lisp streams API.

check out simple streams, gray streams, or simple streams.

A very simple soution is to call your program and the out output as a
single file; then suckit up with lisp read. using

sb-ext:run-program

this is not the most elegant solution but it works very easily.
