Description of the problem

How has this issue affected you? What are you trying to accomplish?

When accessing a CodeSandbox project through a sharing URL without being logged in, tasks that are supposed to run automatically do not execute as expected.

When accessing the same sandbox as my user, everything works fine.

Research direction

Start by opening the linked CodeSandbox sharing URL while logged out, then compare its task behavior with the authenticated view and inspect the linked pylon-template repository around src/index.ts:18. The issue names no client file or test, so locating the anonymous sharing and task-execution path will require repository investigation. Done means automatically configured tasks run for anonymous visitors as they do for signed-in users.
