The unit of execution in a shell is a process. You are unlikely to be able to make a single transaction span multiple processes. If you need multiple steps within a single transaction you will need to generate the sql to pipe into a program like sqlplus.

COMMIT 
PREPARED(7) PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation COMMIT PREPARED(7) NAME
COMMIT_PREPARED - commit a transaction that was earlier prepared for two-phase commit SYNOPSIS
COMMIT PREPARED transaction_id DESCRIPTION
COMMIT PREPARED commits a transaction that is in prepared state. PARAMETERS
transaction_id The transaction identifier of the transaction that is to be committed. NOTES
To commit a prepared transaction, you must be either the same user that executed the transaction originally, or a superuser. But you do not have to be in the same session that executed the transaction. This command cannot be executed inside a transaction block. The prepared transaction is committed immediately. All currently available prepared transactions are listed in the pg_prepared_xacts system view. EXAMPLES
Commit the transaction identified by the transaction identifier foobar: COMMIT PREPARED 'foobar'; COMPATIBILITY
COMMIT PREPARED is a PostgreSQL extension. It is intended for use by external transaction management systems, some of which are covered by standards (such as X/Open XA), but the SQL side of those systems is not standardized. SEE ALSO
PREPARE TRANSACTION (PREPARE_TRANSACTION(7)), ROLLBACK PREPARED (ROLLBACK_PREPARED(7)) PostgreSQL 9.2.7 2014-02-17 COMMIT PREPARED(7)
