| Best use | For documentation authors and small teams checking references locally or in CI. Start with a specific file and interpret findings; it does not establish complete site or login functionality. | 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 individual working across two computers or a small team sharing files with trusted devices. It moves folder changes instead of repeating manual copies, while keeping device and storage choices under your control. It does not replace independent backups or collaborative editing, and devices holding the files must be reachable. |
