Task snapshots were orphaned when tasks were soft-deleted. The
`task_snapshots` table has an `ON DELETE CASCADE` foreign key, but
that only fires on hard deletes.
Modified DeleteTask to use a CTE that atomically soft-deletes the
task and removes its snapshot in a single transaction. The query now
returns just the task UUID instead of the full row.
Closescoder/internal#1283
This change adds a POST /workspaceagents/me/tasks/{task}/log-snapshot
endpoint for agents to upload task conversation history during
workspace shutdown. This allows users to view task logs even when the
workspace is stopped.
The endpoint accepts agentapi format payloads (typically last 10
messages, max 64KB), wraps them in a format envelope, and upserts to the
task_snapshots table. Uses agent token auth and validates the task
belongs to the agent's workspace.
Closescoder/internal#1253
## Problem
Tasks currently only expose a machine-friendly name field (e.g.
`task-python-debug-a1b2`), but this value is primarily an identifier
rather than a clean, descriptive label. We need a separate
display-friendly name for use in the UI.
This PR introduces a new `display_name` field and updates the task-name
generation flow. The Claude system prompt was updated to return valid
JSON with both `name` and `display_name`. The name generation logic
follows a fallback chain (Anthropic > prompt sanitization > random
fallback). To make task names more closely resemble their display names,
the legacy `task-` prefix has been removed. For context, PR
https://github.com/coder/coder/pull/20834 introduced a small Task icon
to the workspace list to help identify workspaces associated to tasks.
## Changes
- Database migration: Added `display_name` column to tasks table
- Updated system prompt to generate both task name and display name as
valid JSON
- Task name generation now follows a fallback chain: Anthropic > prompt
sanitization > random fallback
- Removed `task-` prefix from task names to allow more descriptive names
- Note: PR https://github.com/coder/coder/pull/20834 adds a Task icon to
workspaces in the workspace list to distinguish task-created workspaces
**Note:** UI changes will be addressed in a follow-up PR

This PR adds the backend implementation for modifying task prompts. Part
of https://github.com/coder/internal/issues/1084
## Changes
- New `UpdateTaskPrompt` database query to update task prompts
- New PATCH `/api/v2/tasks/{task}/prompt` endpoint
## Notes
This is part 1 of a 2-part PR stack. The frontend UI will be added in a
follow-up PR based on this branch

* Adds a `GetTaskByOwnerIDAndName` query
* Updates `httpmw.TaskParam` to fall back to task name if no task by
UUID found.
* Updates the `TaskByIdentifier` used in `cli/` to use direct lookup instead of searching.
This change updates the `task_workspace_apps` table structure for
improved linking to workspace builds and adds queries to manage tasks
and a view to expose task status.
