| Best use | Best for an individual developer or small team tracing a bug, adding a test, or implementing a bounded change with a reviewable plan and diff. Avoid broad production access or unscoped Auto-approve, and do not treat it as a replacement for tests, Git, or human review. | For developers switching among many directories in an interactive terminal. It learns from visited paths and helps you return; use explicit paths for scripts and deployments that require a fixed destination. | Best for a developer or small team whose project commands span languages, folders, and tools. It provides documented entry points that people and agents can use and review in Git. Existing scripts may be enough for a simple project; Task does not install project tools or sandbox their commands. |
