| Best use | Ideal for a developer or small platform team that wants encrypted configuration beside code with readable Git diffs. Use it for YAML, JSON, ENV and INI files and tightly scoped CI or runtime access. It is not a replacement for dynamic secret issuance or source-system credential rotation. | For developers reviewing features as small changes and revisiting earlier steps. Start with a separate practice clone to learn working copies and Bookmarks; delay team adoption until compatibility with required Git tooling is checked. | 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. |
