Tasks are fire-and-forget only: function TASK:NAME(props : dval) and
task_execute(target, timeout_seconds, props). The durable queue, the
TASK_WORKERS pool with its leases, cancellation, admission health and recovery,
task, task_status, task_await, task_cancel, the background form of shell_exec,
job_status, job_result, job_await, job_cancel, http_request_async, the job
directory and its --job-worker helper, their pages, fixtures, guide sections,
settings documentation and parity rows are gone. A bare TASK handler is a
compile error.
shell_exec(command, {on_done: "/unit.capy:NAME"}) keeps the one job use that
mattered: the command runs in the detached task runner, and TASK:NAME of the
unit receives command, exit_code, stdout, stderr, timed_out and
output_truncated when it finishes. Unit path resolution is shared by tasks and
services. The tasks guide is "Tasks and commands" with a stable slug change.
