title: Task operations lifecycle

scenario:
  id: task-operations
  surface: automation
  category: automation.background-tasks-and-flows
  coverage:
    primary:
      - automation.task-list-show-cancel
      - automation.task-notifications
      - automation.task-audit-and-maintenance
      - automation.chat-task-board
      - automation.task-pressure-status
  objective: Verify persisted task state crosses the current operator, chat, notification, audit, maintenance, and cancellation boundaries.
  successCriteria:
    - Task records survive a canonical SQLite registry reload before operator inspection.
    - The task CLI lists pressure, shows detail, updates notification policy, and cancels a live CLI task.
    - The authorized /tasks command projects active session tasks from the production task registry.
    - A state-change notification reaches the owner session event queue and its policy and progress survive reload.
    - Audit identifies stale task state and maintenance reconciles and prunes the persisted records it reports.
