Allow aliases for binaries when running task

When you are forced to used the web ui for running tasks, it would be nice if you could use alias, like “tf”, rather than relying on typing the full command. This would help lower frustrations and having to do multiple attemts for simple commands.

This wouldn’t be necessary if the state could be interacted with from outside using local installed tooling.

    Hey, appreciate you flagging this—totally hear the pain.

    Quick question to make sure we’re solving the right thing:

    • What are you usually trying to do when you run these tasks?

    • What made the CLI (spacectl) not an option in those moments?

    • If this worked exactly the way you wanted, what would that look like?

    • How often does this come up for you—and how annoying is it when it does?

    • If nothing changed here, what would you keep doing?

    Just want to make sure we’re not patching the symptom instead of fixing the real friction.
