| Best use | For developers and small teams that want architecture and data-flow diagrams close to the repository and reviewable as text. Use it when relationships matter more than pixel-perfect placement; not for free-form marketing design or exact manual positioning. | 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. | Best for an analyst, developer, or small team that needs to inspect and join large data files and rerun analysis locally. It adds reviewable SQL without database-server setup. It is not a multi-user transactional database for many small concurrent writes from separate processes. |
