Description

The implementation in https://github.com/Shopify/roast/pull/943 shows the id of the task rather than its title.

Showing the title instead would be clearer as it is more descriptive of the task than a simple number. However, that information is not available in taskoutput's result message, but rather in taskcreate's result message, meaning this would require a way to link both outputs together in order to be able to extract the description/title of the task from it's id.

Current implementation:

We would want to make it something like TASKUPDATE "Read full code" -> completed

Research direction

Start by reviewing the implementation described in pull request #943 and trace how taskcreate and taskoutput result messages expose task IDs and titles. Add the link between both outputs so the displayed TASKUPDATE uses the task title, such as "Read full code," rather than only the numeric ID.
