I have very much not forgotten about this project. It's needed for the next-gen version of tasks in mise so it's something I definitely want to hit v1 on. Right now though, my focus in OSS is on getting windows support and the backends out of experimental in mise.

The reality is this is basically half done. I would not suggest adopting it today unfortunately.

Don't expect a lot of activity within the next month or two, but I am optimistic by the end of the year this project will be in a much more complete state.

Anyhow, thanks for bearing with me and I appreciate the interest in this.

Mise tasks without #USAGE config ...

[jdx]

not sure what you're referring to exactly but since this post I did get around to implementing a v1 of usage

[airtonix]

and with this task file:

and a .mycli.toml of

platform = "proxmox"

i get:

So I guess the documentation at both these locations could do with more disambiguation?

• https://usage.jdx.dev/cli/scripts should probably include more examples (specifically config)
• https://mise.jdx.dev/tasks/file-tasks.html#arguments should also include some kind of reference to use of config
