Description of the problem
I have two tasks, one for the frontend (port:5173) and one for the api server (3002). I've configured my tasks.json without a preview for the api task - but it stills open the preview - how do I disbale that?
How has this issue affected you? What are you trying to accomplish?
Everytime I open this sandbox - I get an error because it opens two previews - one with the error
To Reproduce
The task dev-node doesn't have a preview setting - but still opens a preview for the port it opens (3002)
tasks.json
{
// These tasks will run in order when initializing your CodeSandbox project.
"setupTasks": [
{
"name": "Install Dependencies",
"command": "yarn install"
}
],
// These tasks can be run from CodeSandbox. Running one will open a log in the app.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the linked sandbox and reviewing its .codesandbox/tasks.json, especially the dev and dev-node task definitions. Trace how task commands and port previews are handled; done means dev still previews port 5173 while dev-node on port 3002 does not open a preview.
